Hey everyone,
please check out my twine novel?
When an embittered outlaw kidnaps a wilful princess, two kingdoms are brought to the brink of war.
Life as the Crown Princess of Thronheim can get a little dull. That is, until you’re abducted by a brutal criminal and embroiled in a plot to overthrow your own father. Can you survive the monstrosities of the Twisted Forest, save your best friend’s life, escape an evil sorcerer, and stop a war?
So… I started this silly story about a kidnapped princess around a decade ago. But life got busy, and I forgot about it for years at a time, leaving the first 4 chapters abandoned on neocities. Still every so often I would go back… When things were really bad, writing became a way to escape. And a safe place to explore my feelings, a playground for my demons, etc.
Somehow I ended up with 20 chapters and a story that feels complete - to me at least! But only a few people have read it. So I’m looking for beta testers. Appreciate any sort of feedback - bugs, typos, formatting, plot holes/inconsistencies, structural issues, character/relationship development etc. The character skill system has hardly been playtested so I’d really like to know how that works for people.
Content warning:
Stray Heirs contains text that some readers may find disturbing and/or offensive, including violence and horror, sexual references and dark romance. It is not appropriate for children. Sex scenes can be shown or hidden using settings.
You can read the first 4 chapters here:
The beta version is on itch - message me for a link!
I plan to release 1 chapter a week privately for beta readers and revise as I go - so the current beta has 5 chapters. Note: choices from neocities might not carry over to itch. So if you think you’ll likely want to beta test, it would be better to go straight to itch.
Thanks!!!
