New

It's already one week old!

I want to ride the Camel Princess!

Redpill me on this game.

You're on a path in the woods. And at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a princess. You're here to slay her. If you don't, it will be the end of the world.

Bros, it's over... I think we're dying...

Thoughts on priestess princess?

She is too pure for this cruel world.

She's cute. I love priestesses.

You're on a path in the woods

At the end of that path is a cabin

In the basement of that cabin... is a prince

You are here to slay him

Does she have a corruption route?

ok this has gone too far

soon the narrator's dream will be a reality. we must forget about her and not power the machine

StP but gay.

The Narrator's world doesn't work. With an immortal, ever-growing population, resources would run out pretty quickly. How will people expand without resources?

Based AIchad

they dont. just recycle alot

What are you talking about? If the population is immortal, it's going to grow at an insane rate. Those people have to live somewhere, people have to expand.

and expand and expand. wait a minute.. narrator do you like big things?

Nice

He wants a world without change. Nobody will die, but nobody will be born either. The population will stay constant.

When you think about it, the narrator stands in direct opposition to finite existence
Both existences finite in time and finite in area
So likely he would have given you enough “change” to create new life from old ideas, but not death. Like how smitten could run off and start doing his own thing
The New world would generally be more spiritual then physical
Smitten was born, lived and loved
There’s a bit of change

The devs are doing Tabitha comics now.

yeah but it would probably mold itself to the old world somehow, with nature or something

These threads are all swooning over the princess

By being the embodiment of narrator's wish

Yep, another narratorGOD victory

And who is the catalyst for smitten's birth, remind me?
Small hint - She's in the cabin and a hod of change.

tfw no hod gf

Contrarian is born with no princess interactions
TLQ can make people, and can do so infinitely

Me and the sad bitch I picked up by being an eldritch horror

Stella hitting the gwiddy?

What spells does she know?

Basic healing spells at the very least.

I want to put sunscreen on the Princess' back.

I want to go to the state fair with Tabitha!

What kinda corruption?

HOLY FUCK

Buying indulgences

I want to lose to her...

She looks like she fucks birds.

Just imagine Smitten's reaction to this Princess. The devs should have added at least one route with a slightly naughty Princess. It's a big missed opportunity.

may 2025

still no princess wife

just let it end already

The devs should have added at least one route with a slightly naughty Princess.

I mean, like half the variants are pretty naughty. Hell, Spectre outright wants to be inside you.

Tower is the designated safe-horny Princess. The actual sexist Princess is, of course, Razor, but Tower provides a suitable avenue for simps to awooga and booba at.

How did they get away with full penetration...

BBC

Princessbros...

ALL Princesses are the designated safe-horny Princess. Hell, just look at Witch. Tsundere catgirl. Come the fuck on.

I have been writing a StP fan campaign/expansion for Arkham Horror (a coop card game), although I imagine the overlap between the two playerbases has to be pretty small.

ryan gosling long quiet when

Hey, devs, where's my anthro princess?

There's an official balatro card set for StP, so the overlap is probably more substantial than you'd initially think. Game's got legs.

Based modmaker

what would a wolf princess route be like?

So I bought this game, played it a bit, and got two endings.
Fucking around with British lads and getting murdered by the Princess was fun, but all the metafictional-type stuff (including the actual endings) just did exactly nothing for me.

Do you people just post cute / "scary" / lewd Princess art?

metafictional-type stuff

HOLY retard

We used to have actual discussion but it's since been done to death so the only people left are people posting Princess art

currently considering making a cute little set of minigames for each of the princesses

any ideas? currently thinking of some sort of cooking mama type minigame for damsel + some red light green light bird backstabbing game for witch

but all the metafictional-type stuff (including the actual endings)

How much have you played the game?

Making them how? Video games or board games?

Deus vult. It is His will that more of these holy+corrupted creations.

little video game side-project

any ideas?

Spectre: Ghost Hunt.

Would it be Specter doing the hunting or is it a more elaborate hide & seek + tag with her?

She seems like the exact opposite of safe

I think the fact that you murdered spectre makes it unsafe horny

That's the best part: just gotta wait. Death comes to us all, and so too will the promised ghost wife.
I will choose to believe this in spite of anything to the contrary.

LMAO great stuff, anon.

heh

KINO

Nice to hear from you again, and nice work

Can someone tell or point me towards where it's explained why the creators hated using Renpy?

No

Are you the type of guy who wants a woman taller then himself or are you a tall man with a genetic predisposition toward tall mates?

They said it on the last StP stream. Check their Twitch.

a hot cup of cock

jej

No

i'm 5'9", you do the math

Yes, and in sexual, romantic and religious ways
If I had a female clone of myself I wouldn’t give myself any time to sleep (nor would I me, I am comfortable being on either side of that relationship (not in a gay way I’m just a universal exception ( for myself)))

Pad was romantic and all, but not nearly as captivating as I myself would be

I don't remember the last one. Where did you find it?

Just eat the other immortal people and recycle them as part of yourself.

but regardless of heights Needle is a well-marbled steak of a woman in general

I KNEEL

That last one

Hey, I don't recognise that one, where'd you get it from?

Oh. Nevermind then

Anon... Look up...

Gamers don’t look up

recycle them as part of yourself

Everyone is immortal. You can't do that.

Slay the Princess, I demand.
I must reiterate the command.
Slay the Princess, I say.
Hurry, hurry, we don't have all day.

Simply evolve into a new form of being that can amalgamate

evolve

You can't do that without the concept of change. No Shifty = no evolution.

Shut your beak. I'll decide what to do with her myself.

Newpoet, you need to work on the meter, even if it makes the diologue less naturalistic
Even just putting in filler words or mumbo jumbo would be better then this

Would you slay her when she's tall?
Would you slay her as a doll?
Would you slay her wrapped in chains?
Would you slay her as a force of change?
Would you slay her as a knife?
Oh, would you slay your one true wife?

jam status?

Bravo

i really fucking love scarlet hollow and want it to be done already. I don't want to go back and scene collect just yet before finishing the main story first.

He's spiritually with us...

When are Black Tabby going to stop messing around and add the Razor/Stranger --> Clown chapter in for the April Fools update? Getting nervous that they forgot entirely, ha ha

Ha ha yeah... They probably just forgot..

and then make the stripper and cougar updates

No news
He posted a set of images about a gymnast in his oc thing so he is still alive and drawing
30% odds of him finishing the big one by then day’s end, but we can be sure he’s working

You very clearly can
In MAD we get faster, and most of the voices can empower you in some way
I think there are supposed to be infinite possible voices in canon, meaning limitless growth is possible

he is still alive and drawing

That's good to hear.

In MAD

?

Have there been any full route fanfics?

just wanted (You) to be free

Our Goddess is an awesome Goddess.

Mutually Assured Destruction, one of Razor's chapter 3s

No more updates. It’s Scarlet Hollow time!

do they think tranny hollow is going to make them money somehow

It’s art

They are going to die happy and poor

Will eat it whole. That's what true love is all about.

No, that's what Slay the Princess was for, silly.

no

Ugly Bastard Smitten

Oh nononono

Witch is right there, dude.

She's cute but she looks a little too human.

Doesn’t matter. It’s the game they want to make. They’re more interested in making interesting well-written reactive vidya than money. They’re not EA.

IMG_4014.jpg - 1125x1588, 330.58K

wow they are really milking this huh, greedy fucks

I want more StP content! I don't understand why they don't want to make some DLCs, a lot of people would buy it.

Because they've done everything they wanted to do with it. They want to finish Scarlet Hollow and then start a third game.

cool. so I can pretend they made one game and quit making games because I'm never touching that revolting tranny dogshit.

Why not?

grim
it's not about money, it's about the message

Bros, I don't want it to be over..

What would (You) do if (You) had to make the choice at the end?
Leave with Shifty?
Leave with the Princess? (optionally, with any vessel)?
Slay her at the end and fulfill the Narrator's wishes?
Be the turboedgelord grimdark sigma?

What would your reasoning be?

He has strong emotions about gay people
It’s one guy and he was traumatised by life in califonia

I wanted to buy the artbook but shipping is 70 fucking Euros

Shifty end. Allows for the best of all worlds.

with literal other half

exploring infinite possibilities together

can be whatever the heart desires

womb tattoo

Oh my.

I would slay the princess and leave to a better world

If we are going to end things could we vote on an official final weekly thread? And have a countdown for a few weeks

I rather things having a definite ending

So you agree with the Narrator's view of the future? How do you think that would look and be like in practice?

Leave with Shifty

This 100%. Only a madman would destroy the universe reset button.

Leave with Shifty, for free. Gotta explore the cosmos with my goddess wife.

currently considering making a cute little set of minigames for each of the princesses

any ideas?

A little fighting game with Adversary would be fun.

I think so too, but I still wouldn't mind seeing someone's perspective who doesn't agree.
Personally, yeah, I'd also probably leave with Shifty after giving her all the best vessels because as says, she can be anything, and you'd see all the wonders and the possibility of the Cosmos while your true love is by your side.
What possible better outcome could there be?
But I mean, leaving with her heart also has its charm in a way. We have zero clue what would happen, but she mentions that she doesn't want to lose parts of (You) that matter to her, which she believes happens when she remains part of Shifty. And there's also some romance in living together with her without the burden and responsibility of being gods and therefore completely turning the Narrator's plan on its head. I dunno.
I just really like her bros.

Come to think of it, what DO you think happens if we leave the cabin with the Princess?
What would that mean for the cycle? Do we both keep our powers? Do we become "mortal" somehow? Do we actually end up in basically the Narrator's ideal universe, but we're together?
Sorry, this might have been discussed in older weeklies, but I've only been here for the last couple of them, since I played it in April..

1039663.jpg - 850x782, 161.35K

Bros, I don't want it to be over..

Same. But what can you possibly do about it? As time goes on, more and more people will keep moving on.

Y'know, the "You're on a path in the woods" ending is exactly what the Narrator wanted the world to look like.
Neither of you ever truly "die", and you constantly have new experiences, forget about them completely and then experience them again, for eternity.
That's pretty much what he described, and you don't have to kill the Princess to accomplish it!

den2.jpg - 1292x1019, 147.01K

I think the meaning of life is to be, and being human means avoiding death
Even if there are fears or pains once death has been banished they are simply illusions to be avoided with force of will
Turning down on the opportunity to defeat death means giving up on your humanity in a way, by placing yourself as an outside observer who doesn’t want the fight to end

I would hope the narrator’s world is one of constant expansion, ideally with reincarnation as opposed to direct physical immortality
I don’t want to go and I don’t want it all to end

Neither of you ever truly "die", and you constantly have new experiences, forget about them completely and then experience them again, for eternity.

This is fucking hell. Just endless repetition of the same thing that you've already forgotten. Zero new experiences.

Come to think of it, what DO you think happens if we leave the cabin with the Princess?

I like to think Shifty and Quiet have cozy cottage core slice of life shenanigans.

So suicide is the solution to death?
Awfully Counterintuitive

Sums up my browsing history well enough. Should work fine for two amnesiac god halves doing endless choose-your-own-adventures.

greedy devs should get publicly executed

I think not knowing is a part of it
Facing the unknown together, focusing purely on love
It is a rejection of the moral debate

If you've forgotten, everything is a new experience.
And remember: you have to actively choose to restart the cycle every time you meet Shifty so there *is* a way out.
It's kind of a Plato's cave situation: is it really a hell if you don't know it is?
Technically not suicide as the Princess is now a separate being from you.

The world ends and shifty wins
Didn’t the narrator tell you that shifty lies?

But I thought time meant nothing in the maw of forever...

17888452.jpg - 1280x1698, 312.6K

If you've forgotten, everything is a new experience.

No fuck this shit. I have an existential fear that life is just a cycle. When you die, your life just repeats over and over again...

Why would it loop at death?
For all you know today restarts every time you go to sleep.

Only for the gods.

For all you know today restarts every time you go to sleep.

Thanks, I won't be sleeping tonight.

What would (You) do if (You) had to make the choice at the end?

Aint no way I'm killing my actual soulmate literally ripped away from my previously whole being by a bird.
Either I leave with her from the cabin or leave with shifty or preferably I somehow convince shifty to give me my wife back and I hang out with her.

Well ok, on a purely technical level you're not wrong, but that's such a cruel fate. Would you treat an amnesiac awfully because he or she would not remember anything that happens?

But avoiding death has never been the centerpiece of what being human is. As in, avoiding death isn't what makes us human - novel experiences, emotion, change, hopes and plans for the future, legacy and more are. I don't think any of us WANT to die, but even logically, and by going on what the game presented to you - in ETERNITY, everything becomes boring, everything loses its luster, its enjoyment. If there are zero stakes, if you never need to reproduce for a part of you to live on, if you never need to plant trees whose fruits you will never see, what else is left except base instincts? All pleasures will become banal and insufferable. The Narrator makes it clear that removing death means everyone will live in perpetuity just as they are, and ideally for so long that they start forgetting what they've already experienced. But all the glimpses we saw of that in the game itself point to a horrible fate.

Maybe it restarted after I made my last post?
There's just no way of knowing these things (and if you somehow do, there's nothing you can do about it except enjoy the ride), so just don't worry about it and post funny Princesses.

stp3.jpg - 2048x1404, 649.25K

A thing is what it is, it can’t be what it’s not
If you can’t tell the difference between x and y they are the same
You repeating life would be the same as nothing happening
There would be no consistency to link the moments together, and so any moment could link to any other
Perhaps you will experience every possible life, backwards, before starting again

Well ok, on a purely technical level you're not wrong, but that's such a cruel fate

Not really. Again, it's an allegory of the cave situation, so even it being a hell is debatable.

Would you treat an amnesiac awfully because he or she would not remember anything that happens?

No, but the difference is that I am an actor with agency, while the loop LQ and Shifty would find themselves in is not.
Funnily enough that also makes it impossible for it to be a "cruel" fate, as cruelty requires intent - and as such agency - which a timeloop simply cannot possess

But it is a choice of agency, since they both agree to do it at the end, and for a loop to exist, they'd need to agree to do it every single time. So each reset would be a choice of agency.

Slaying a Princess is only for cool people. I bet none of you are cool enough, though.

Emotions are
A)All very neatly focused on living and reproducing (this does not diminish them, despite what people often say)
And
B)Very easy to manipulate (meth addicts never get bored of it, they only develop a tolerance)
If you only ever take emotions at their face value they are meaningless, it is only by treating them as a guide, as a call to arms and a unity of purpose that they can regain meaning
Acting to fool yourself is acting against yourself. Having the life you sought is good

While human existence would be fundamentally changed by the end of death, being that emotions no longer would have a goal, it is still my goal to win, and it is still worth fighting for
If you give up on living there is no point talking about sanctifying life, and if you have given up on seeking the eternal life men have sought for generation after generation, you have, in a very real way stopped living
Passing the torch would be a very amicable solution if it weren’t for entropy bringing a final end to all humanity, history and matter (It is implied that this is what triggered the narrator)

You repeating life would be the same as nothing happening

It doesn't matter. The very idea that life is a loop that repeats itself over and over again gives me a feeling of fear and repulsion I don't know how to explain it. That's literally how hell works.

Does the Witch know any spells?

witch smug.jpg - 1201x2000, 576.88K

Well, she knows how to summon roots.

Yes, but that's not the loop itself.
And LQ and the Heart don't continue the loop out of cruelty either; they keep it going out of love.

I can understand the high specific conceptual fear but it is wrong
I would comfort you, but it is objectively something I would never fear, because choicelessness is just death

She knows how to steal my heart

Bastard won’t give it back
I’ll have to figure out how to get hers before I bleed out

Sand Witch!

the Witch

The fact that girls like the Witch do not exist is proof that there is no god.

Grr... Damn cat. Needs correction.
