You may or may not have noticed this, but I've resumed work on this CYOA.
Yeah and what is taking this so long to pick back up.

Probably the fact that he's doing several other, IMPORTANT projects. And the fact that this topic hadn't been posted in since September suggests it was dead/on Hiatus.

Fairly sure I've given up.
Now for a bit more painful news.. Reality time, part two. Yes, part two. Read the Kibby's Dreamland post first. Or don't. Sequence really doesn't matter.

Chaplan.. is a bit more.. of a painful moment for me. I had grand ideas for this one, too, obviously.. but this was an original story. Not some bastardization of Kirby's Dreamland starring my own version of Kibatu.. but something more original..

Or at least, that's what I thought at first. The idea was to put our protag through several difficult situations, and the warning of 'you're better of dying' would've been a constant reminder of how bad it could be.

But.. I realized I wasn't sure if I actually wanted the story to head in this direction. I got somewhat attached to Cyil, and to put her through unbearable shit like that..? Never mind that the more I thought about it, the more it actually seemed like a bad version of Gantz and perhaps not entirely PG-13.

I took the time to re-evaluate, especially when it seemed you too were more interested in the background character I added for this sake.. but.. it just wouldn't come. And I fooled myself into thinking I could always come up with something later on.. What a joke.

So again, I'm going to say it out bluntly: Chaplan is over. It was a failed idea before it truly began. I'll still use Cyil for other ends, but for now.. I fear she'll be in the back of the queue.

If anything, this topic hasn't had any post in almost two years, so I sincerely doubt anyone truly missed this.. Still, I have to face reality, and the reality is that I'm not finishing this CYOA.

Calling it quits officially, guys.
