About the Story
Tales from the Road is an SFW ‘slice of life’ interactive fiction game with a furry theme. The game features a story about a disgruntled contract worker whose grown bored of their work. The first chapter of the story features an introduction to our core cast of anthropomorphic characters and explores the player character’s (PC) dissatisfaction with their current situation. The second chapter expands upon the relationships and backstory of the PC and introduces an important story aspect which will be heavily expanded upon in the future. The script for the story is currently 15,000+ words long, with 2 of the chapters being completed, and the 3rd being a work in progress. I’m planning on around 8 or so total chapters. The gameplay is simple. The game is entirely text-based and is played from a command window environment. You can navigate the world using the usual commands of ‘north’, ‘south’ ‘west’ ‘east’ and by typing the name of the thing you are trying to interact with. There’s no combat or anything like that, making this game very story driven. There just wasn’t really a place for a combat system given the story I’m trying to tell. The game features a save system, allowing you to come back and play it at any time. Please note though that due to the current ‘experimental’ state of the game your save files might not work across different versions. I’m hoping to have this fixed at some point in the future. This is an ‘early version’ of the game. Bugs might happen, there might be some odd design issues and or choices. If you encounter either of those things just let me know on here, on GitHub or on Twitter and I’ll do my best to try and fix them. Just please keep in mind that I’m but a lowly computer science student, not a senior developer with years of experience. This very much a learning experience for me. This game is completely safe for work. There is the mention of a nude artwork, but It’s not descriptive and only comes up once. There is swearing, but nothing beyond an f-bomb. Well, I think that’s about it. If you want more info on the project check out the GitHub page, it has tons of mindless ramblings from me. I try to post some insight into my development progress every week on there. Hope you enjoy the game! This project was created with Python 3.7 in the Pycharm IDE, with the only developer and writer being me. The game features no art other than the cover page, which was also made by me using a royalty free image from Pixabay.
