Just finished my first run, and OMG!
At first I thought the game would really focus on the meta element of writing porn (while it's obviously already... like a graduate project). But then I was just flooded with writing that made me feel like it's a love letter to arts with writing at the forefront!
Honestly amazing stuff, made me wanna consider pursuing writing degree, but then I remembered no other school would be as cool as 21CA
Hey, thanks so much. Tomas gives the assignment to take a porn trope and flesh it out into a "real" scene, and I basically gave myself that same assignment when I started making the game. I still heavily lean into the fantasy aspect of it all, of course, but making this does give me the opportunity to muse a little bit about writing and other artistic pursuits.
Funnily enough considering the game's premise, I didn't go to college. (I'm sure there's stuff in this game that makes that pretty obvious to those who have, haha.) So you definitely don't need a writing degree to write professionally, if that's a goal.
If I had gone to college, I might have followed in the footsteps of a pretty well-known novelist who I was lucky enough to befriend when I was just getting started—major in something that would enhance my writing rather than major in writing itself. In his case, one of those majors was psychology, and the way he writes his characters definitely reflects that!
