#Announcement!
The playable alpha build of Fur Quests is here!
Word can not describe how anxious I am right now.
It is insane to think that after all of these years, I finally published the game of my dream... Or, well, at least the start of it. We still have a long way to go before this chapter of Fur Quests is over. Or before you can see the chapters that came before it.
That is right; this is only the start of chapter 2! And why is that, you may ask? Well, you only get one first impression, and I have a lot planned for the start of this adventure. But I wouldn't want to spoil that just yet!
So instead, you get to experience Septim's adventures in the remote settlement known as Cliffshade, which is largely isolated from the rest of the world and thus the overarching story.
It may feel a bit sparse right now, but rest assured, it will become increasingly populated in the days to come!
As is to be expected, perhaps, this is a very experimental build. There are a lot of writing choices and UI elements I've not settled on yet.
For example, I began writing Furquest like you would a book. With very long descriptions and dialogue highlighted in quotation marks. But there is so little room in the dialogue boxes I had to trim those away. Now the quotation marks just kinda awkwardly hang there.
Another thing I could never make up my mind on was where to place the player choices. Middle or right? Dim background or framed? What do you think? Be sure to tell me in the comments down below and I hope you enjoy this first peek at Fur Quests.
