Hack the Core

Upcoming story: ChatAid
I’m proud to announce that “ChatAid” is coming soon on Steam.

Description:
When you found a wacky program on your PC called “ChatAid”, you ended up in a chatroom. Someone needs your help.

Features
* A short story written in Ren’py, in Two Parts, with 4 endings in total.
* You can choose your name, nickname and gender.
* Steam achievements.

Unlike my previous works, which were always bilingual (French and English), ChatAid and any future stories will be English Only. Why? For simplicity’s sake.

French is my mother tongue, yes, but it’s also a very complex language compared to English, and it’s so much harder to write stories with character customization in French.

For example, I had trouble getting “neutral” words in French for Ivanoile and Nuri, since they are nonbinary. In English, it was so easy to do. “Hir”, “they”, “them”. Done.

I also got the bad habit for making a lot of typos in French, unlike in English, and getting proofreaders is difficult. (Also I’m not a very patient person and waiting for the typos fix while x story would be ready for release is really annoying!)

And, well, Steam sells all over the world and the English text is the most read. So English Only for now on.

The “Reverse Me” Trilogy is out!

Hack the Core version 4.0 is on!

  • Dual Language Screen (FR/EN)!
  • New “look” for the choice buttons
  • Credits updated
  • Help screen removed

Major updates in the works.
After completing the “Reverse Me” trilogy, I made the decision to update all my other games so that they match Reverse Me, presentation wise.

It’ll take a good while to do, but you’ll see:
* Dual Language Screen and User Interface
* ADV style reading instead of NVL
* Revised English translation for some games
* And more!

“A.L.A.N.: Rift Breakers”, version 4.0., is almost completed with those changes. Here’s some previews.





Sales of the week. Also “Reverse Me” will come out much sooner.

Infos about “Reverse Me!”
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1105150/

The “Reverse Me!” series will be a collection of shorts and linear stories, all based on fairy tales or legends. They’ll have something in common. “Rez/Ru” is the first story, the other will be released as DLCs.

I don’t have any ETA for the other stories - since I still have to write them in French, translated then into English, and put everything into Ren’py - but I do intend to complete at least 1 or 2 before the release in August.

Since there are a lot of fairy tales I can get inspiration from, I also don’t have a clear number of stories in mind. Will the “Reverse Me!” series be at trilogy or more? Only time will tell.

All stories will have Steam Achievements.
