I love this one so much omg. it's so well written and I love the characters and the story and just everything about this is a masterpiece I cannot wait for more‼️ 

I do have a question for the author, (if they'll see this 💔) how does one create the names for the places, and like the not real words, like Iredicci is definitely not a real culture/group or whatever so how do you think of it???

but beside that, amazing game, I love Viatica, that's how I found this one, and I can't wait for more 🩷

Thank you so much! My process for creating names is a bit of a word salad, lol. I do base my cultures on real life ones, and the Iredicci are based on Latin and Italian cultures, so I needed a word that sounded like it could be Latin or Italian. Then I concentrate on how they look on paper and how they sound in my head. Basically I just play around with syllables till I’m satisfied. 😁

Some of the names for my cities are real world places, or a mix of. Baricenza, for example, is a mix of Bari and Vicenza, and Inizi really does mean “beginnings” in Italian. There are so many amazing words and places that already exist, I don’t have to reinvent the wheel every time. 😊

that makes sense tbh! Chapter 1 in one of the options MC says “Andante” and that really rang a bell until i realized it was the musical term for a moderate walking tempo (or something else. Idk im just a band kid)

I wove music terminology into the Iredicci language. Every expression you see like “cesura”, “andante”, “adagio” etc is a musical term. You can find all the translations in the in-game codex.
