Hey everyone. It’s been a while. I’m not going to get into the details of my life, but things aren’t great (you can read more about it in a post below).

I’m here to talk a bit about writing “At the Mercy of Hatred.”

I'm almost done with the prologue (just four branches left to write) and then I'll be starting the prologue for the second character. I'm actually going to be using Twine instead of ChoiceScript now because I can't get the latter to install on my computer.

I'm not sure what to call it (I don't actually play games, just visual novels, so if anyone has any suggestions I'm open to them!), but there will be the option to choose who you play as. You can either play as both characters at the same time or choose one of the two.

Twine notes in Harlowe: Choosing names and pronouns

So, this was something really cool I ran across doing some research and I thought I’d share it. There are, of course, multiple languages you can write in for Twine. I’m doing Harlowe, as it’s most beginner-friendly and really seems to have everything I need. (One day, when I finish my Javascript/CSS studies, I may play with SugarCube or even Snowman but today is not that day XD)

Anyway, my current project is setting up what is basically a dating sim featuring one of my favorite romantics - Genesis. I am… roughly a fourth of the way through, if things go the way I think they will, so I’m only sharing the WIP with my betas but suffice to say I’m really excited.

And I wanted to share the coding for letting the player choose their own name (pretty easy to look up, but worth putting out there) as well as one way to set things up for choosing their own pronouns. Under the cut, because it’s long.

I feel really bad, my mental health has really deteriorated lately, and well, a terrible thing happened in my family today. I won't be blogging, but I will be writing At the Mercy of Hatred and I will finish it one day.

[darkrose-thewriter]

I apologize for not writing. I can't blog. It stresses me out. But I'm alive for now, and still continuing to write.

Changed the prologue a little bit. Added a new character and RO for Butcher's story. (it is Sarah). Added choose of gender for Butcher in prologue.

I am not sure whether I have improved the text or not. I tried my best.

Organisation in At the Mercy of Hatred World

That's U12. This is so far a small list of important organizations and beyond that will be involved in At the Mercy of Hatred. Everything will change as I write, as I'm just a co-author and a simple helper. There are a couple of things we haven't mentioned yet, as we'll return to them later.

The World Organization of Superheroes is a global alliance that unites multiple superhero organizations from various countries. It coordinates the collective activities of superheroes from around the world.

The Federation's Superhero Organization is one of the main organizations within the Federation.

The Superpowers Regulatory Agency is a government agency that monitors and regulates the activities of superheroes in the East Federation, requiring them to register and comply with its rules.

The Order of the Fang is a mercenary organization. It includes both superpowered and non-superpowered individuals as mercenaries.

Not an organization, but also plays a big role in the universe.

Dark Web is a group of people who fight against the regime by exposing its misdeeds by hacking into various government computers.

* Horror and splatterpunk

Not the official demo / small part of the part one of the prologue /

Link here.

This is not an official release of the demo. It's a very small piece of the prologue of the Butcher's story. Since my (DarkRose) comp broke and I lost all my data and right now I'm writing from my brother's computer, I'll be releasing small portions of demos until the December and official release.

I just have my doubts about this story. I'm going back and forth about whether or not to write it. I won't be writing on the blog as I don't have the energy to blog yet.

At the Mercy of Hatred is a standalone work-in-progress interactive superhero novel by DarkRose and U12.

You will play as a vigilante seeking revenge for the deaths of their family and friends, while also uncovering the identity and motive of the murderer, and also as an antihero, a former agent of the Superpowers Regulatory Agency, who was accused of murder they did not commit, and who has returned to take revenge against their former friends and employer.

Synopsis:

The Butcher Story: I’m the most wanted person in the East Federation. They want me for a murder I didn’t commit. Everyone I considered close friends betrayed me. They thought I was going to disappear, but here I am. I’m back in the High City, and this time I’m here to get revenge on those who have wronged me.

The Vigilante Story: I have nothing left. My old life, my family, my friends - all gone. Agents from the Superpowers Regulatory Agency took them away from me, right infront my eyes, and there was nothing I could do. I couldn’t save them.

After Hosted Games withdrew the game from sale due to AI-generated content, I'm afraid my writing will look like AI-generated content.

At the Mercy of Hatred: Sneak Peek - prologue version 1

MC2 is male. This is not the final version, just an outline and first version. It's MC1's encounter with a supporting character

Butcher knocked a child down to the ground. He didn't think a little brat like that would fight so hard. It was admirable to see that.

He walked over to the child still lying on the ground and bent down to look into his blue eyes. Something about the child evoked Alan's memory of her. About a girl who fought with the same ferocity.

"You're a pretty good fighter, given your size." Alan said with a smirk on his face. "And where did you learn to fight like that?"
