I'm A Little Confused But What Are The Three Timelines?

I'm a little confused but what are the three timelines?

A good question- it can seem a bit confusing at first, and my wording often does not help things.

Anyways, Event Horizon is one main overarching story, about the crew of a spaceship and their mission. The general events of the story, and all major choices are going to happen, regardless of timeline. 

So that brings up the question of just what the three timelines are. Essentially, there are two points of “divergence” where your choices will have a significant outcome on how the story is conducted. Certain options at these divergence points have an irreversible effect, and thus, change the timeline.

The points of divergence are in remembering your identity and upon meeting the captain for the first time. 

Timeline 1 is the “normal” timeline, and involves your character remembering who they are, and being non-aggressive to the captain. Over time, you become more and more aware of some of the underlying plots and the issues they cause, but your interaction with them is less direct.

 This is how the game is pretty much meant to be played, and how I recommend your first playthrough to go.

Timeline 2 is the “Anomaly” timeline, and involves your character remembering who they are, and being aggressive towards the captain. A bad decision on both parties end.You might have survived the encounter, but the fabric of reality ripples around you, and there’s glimpses of what is to come. There’s something... else... going on here. And now you’re caught up in it.

This serves as kind of a happy medium between Timelines 1 and 3, incorporating some of the more surreal elements of Timeline 3 with the general flow of Timeline 1.

Timeline 3 is the “Amnesiac” timeline, and involves your character not knowing their identity. Reality is shattered around you, as matter and time bend to your will. The past lives in you as readily as the present. You know the captain. You know the first officer. You know what happened- and what’s going to happen. You cannot change or recall your past, but you can irrevocably change the future.

This is pretty much a break from reality in every way. Voices in your head, brutal flashbacks, complicated relationships with your former comrades and reality itself, playing god, mysterious powers, and a lot of fire. If you wanted to get really, really, really uptight about how the worldbuilding sets up the events of Event Horizon, this should be simultaneously the most and least canon sequence of events.

I think I have some fluffy unsettling feelings that shouldn't be there for such a character, but slices of affection to us as a child? Plz- what is wrong with me and my mommy issues 😩 she fricking killed us just below this post i-

And, uh, sorry for barging with one more so soon, - I'm really intrigued for Scenario's 55 for The Queen and child!MC? :) It can be fluff with foreshadowing power dynamic (mc is tiny even for their age, let's say)

👀

Scenario, 55. Comparing hand sizes, then linking fingers together.

You're eight summers old when you're in The Queen's study. Sitting on the lush couch off to the side as she writes things you're not sure you understand.

You watch her as she scribbles with her quill. Her face shows no emotion, her hand quick at work.

"Mom," you squeak at her, your eyes watching as she stills.

She looks up at you, a smile blossoming over her face. "What is it dear?" she gently asks, placing her quill down on her desk.

"I'm bored." you pout, poking your bottom lip. You see her hide a snicker behind her hand. "Come here then," she waves you over, patting her knee. "Come sit in my lap."

You smile, quickly making your way over to her. Wobbling a little to the side as you rush to take place on her lap. She lifts you up, her hands cold under your arms as she settles you on her knee. "Better?" she asks you, her eyes shining.

You nod your head, eyeing the paper she was working on. You go to touch it, but she quickly grabs your hand, flipping it over so your palms are touching.

"Look at how tiny you are," she stage-whispers, looking at your hands. You stare at them too, seeing how yours is smaller than hers by a lot. Your fingers not even reaching hers yet. "You're just big," you laugh.

She laughs too, interlacing your fingers together; holding your hand tightly. "I am big, aren't I?" she bumps her shoulder into yours. "Remember, child, I will always be bigger, understand? No matter how old you may get, how tall you grow: I will always be the one by your side."

She squeezes your hand as she talks, and you wince at the pain. "Make sure to wear soft gloves, okay? Don't want you to freeze to death." She lets go of your hand, patting you on the head once before going back to work.

The next day, you wear gloves.

Thank you!!

Welcome to The Odessa Dating Games!

image

After losing a bet to your roommate, you’re forced to sign up for Odessa Dates, a wildly popular dating website taking your country, Odessa, by storm.

When an announcement made by the Odessa Royal Family thrusts you into a competition for the heir’s hand in marriage, you quickly begin to realize that you’re in a lot more trouble than trying to figure out what spoon is the dessert spoon.

With rivals, romance and rituals around every corner, welcome to The Odessa Dating Games!

Hi, I’m Tandra. The Odessa Dating Games is an interactive fiction novel that I started over on the Choice of Games website. It’s been just over a year over there and I decided it was time to take the game to Tumblr!

Here’s the quick rundown of what you need to know about the game! A more detailed list is over at the forum.

Play as a man, woman, or as non-binary! Be gay, straight, bisexual or pansexual.

Romance loads of characters, including your roommate, the heir to the throne and more!

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer as you work to uncover what threatens your home country of Odessa, all while competing in a competition with loads of challenges to test your skills, strength and more. 

Create the royal of your dreams, or play as a default royal character.

Now, a more detailed look at The Odessa Dating Games:

THE RO’s

The Heir to Odessa, who can have pre determined looks, or can be custom made to your liking, right down to their hair, height, gender and more. 

The Heir’s younger sibling, Mozelle Wyman, a redhead with a love of speaking before she thinks.

Your roommate, Odi/Odanna Baxley, whom you’ve been living with for quite a while. O has tattoos, brown hair, blue eyes and is the whole reason you get into the competition in the first place. 

Lyon Powers, a tech intern in charge of keeping track of your performance while in the games. 

Jenna Young, leader of the Odessenters, a group aimed at trying to take down the Odessa Royal Family once and for all. 

And a few others that I’ll let you guys discover for yourselves!

Some questions you might have…

What was your inspiration for this game? I’ve always loved reading and playing games that involved royal families and royals! As far as games/material, I was inspired by Princess Academy by Shannon Hale, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, as well as Drag Star from COG and various other HG and COG royal inspired games.

When will this game be finished? Totally up in the air at the moment. I have a full-time job, so this is only a side hobby. I would love to have this out by 2022. 

How often do you update? Pretty randomly. There’s no set time for updates, but I always update the title on the topic on the COG forum. I’m a night owl, so they tend to come in the middle of the night haha. I will do weekly updates on here just to keep myself accountable and you guys interested!

How many chapters will this game be? At least 12.

Will there be a sequel? No, this will be a standalone novel, but as the game nears competition, I might entertain a new story set in the same world, or writing a prequel. 

A fuller FAQ list is posted on the forum topic on the COG forum website! I will eventually add the questions on the FAQ website, but I am currently holding off as to not spoil people for a little while. 

I am more active on the forums than Tumblr for now, but feel free to send questions, comments or anything like that to either place. Please reserve coding issues to the COG FORUM only, as that’s where my testing team is most active on and can help me out with those. 

I also track #the odessa dating games and #todg! I’d love to see any fanart/stories/mood boards/etc. that you guys come up with!

Without further ago, I present, The Odessa Dating Games.

Want something visual to go along with your game? Check out my Pinterest account for the game here!

Godspeed.

MEET THE CAST

There are up to eight romances to choose from in In The Ocean of Stars, all of which are part of the crew of the Cheyenne. This story will feature sexually explicit scenes, with the option to have a more asexual route/non-explicit scenes if you so wish.

Most of if not ALL of these romance routes will be a bit of a slowburn. This story is a work in progress, and I expect it to be incredibly wrong by the time it is done. 

But enough pomp and circumstance! Let’s get to it-

FACE PUNCH AND HOW TO APOLOGIZE DLDIHSHSJS

chester-stargazer - mess.merising
3 years ago

THAT. That is goddamn good to have such freedom!! And this is a realistic approach too...ofc with time the forgiveness can be brought up, but to switch on it so fast for the ++ in relationship stat? Mehhh. THANK YOU FOR NOT PUNISHING US ANGSTERMANCES😩❤️❤️

In relation to your last ask; I’m a big believer that you do not have to forgive a person just because you love them, so I’m glad that isn’t going to lock one out of a romance with C. Sure, it’ll be “angsty” compared to forgiveness but that shouldn’t be required of a person who was hurt just because they love someone, and I’m excited to explore that detail more in your game personally

Yes yes yes! Everything you've just said is exactly how I feel about it Anon. I'm so glad you're resonating with this. In my experience, not everyone deserves forgiveness and not everything can be forgiven. That doesn't mean you love that person any less, but it means they hurt you in a way you can't forgive. It'll make some scenes more angsty but in the end, it's up to the player how they deal with it all! I never wanted to take that choice away from yall because I hate when I get railroaded into a certain 'good' path in romances even if its OOC for my MC.

So total freedom in all the romances (I mean, as much as coding and the workload will allow me but mostly as much as possible). This game will definitely be a place to explore darker themes and unhealthy sides of love too (not necessarily in C's route). I'm just so excited to let you guys loose in Ferngrove and do as you please.

- Tori
