About...
Crimson Rose & White Lily is an ongoing interactive court intrigue project, set in a fantasy world inspired by the Victorian Era and the 18th century French Court, a world unknown to the player character. A demo is currently available, which includes 5 chapters, amounting to about 136.000 words.
First announced during Summer 2021, Crimson Rose & White Lily is planned to have 5 Acts, each including about a dozen chapters for its main story. Side story, including four different romance paths, are also in development. The demo is being updated sporadically, as new chapters are made available, and will be freely available until all Acts are released. Each new update provides the players not only with new story content, but also new side elements, and potential resolution of side intrigues.
Along with the traditional choice-format for the setting, the game includes puzzles and investigation mechanics. Storylines and quests are also tracked in a Codex section.
While the story has not advanced in some time, its development is still ongoing. Due to the sheer amount of content required to deliver the vision I have, this project will take me multiple years to complete it.
