Turncoat Chronicle is now in open beta!

Posted on March 19, 2023 Updated on March 17, 2023

After nearly five years, my fantasy intrigue text game Turncoat Chronicle is now officially in open beta, undergoing the last round of testing and editing before being submitted for publication.

Writing the game has been a long process, from its conception as a villain-centered story in April of 2018, to the first round of feedback for chapter 1 in June of the same year, through several rewrites and round after round of private testing. As I put the final touches on the game’s epilogue, I had to revisit old code, written years ago and left untouched since then. I received valuable feedback that allowed me to improve areas of difficulty that I hadn’t anticipated but also reassured some of my other concerns.

At this stage of writing, I’m incredibly proud of the game that I’ve created. I’m happy to share it with my readers during this beta period, and I hope they can love this little story as much as I have done, for the past five years.

Version 0.11.1 of Turncoat Chronicle can be played here, or through the official development thread, where feedback can also be left.
