Slay the Princess

I want to marry Tabitha!

You're a brown beyond tasteless schizoid tranny from twitter/tumblr.
You should really just kill yourself.

New update?

They're working on the clown route right now.

I missed the thread last week, are we back to business or still on slow mode?

doesn't start in the cabin

0/10 would not clown around again

I like you
I hope you DO marry Tabitha

its on slow mode but with a burst of hope, we may speed back to progress

We can't know until we try

WTF is this real?!

We will make it!
This is THE thread we get back to our old pace! no in fact we will SURPASS it

i wont make it after this. atta girl

Fuck yes! They're finally listening to the fanbase and making more StP content. Have they announced a release date?

You are being rused. There’s an art book (which is also kind of a CYOA, so that’s neat) coming out in August, and maybe more merchandise later down the line, but the game itself is finished. The devs are on Scarlet Hollow full-time now.

Are her boobs really that big or does she have balloons in there?

Stop lying to me! I believe in the Clown Princess!

The devs are on Scarlet Hollow full-time now.

last update in fucking april

full time with part time hours more like.

They have so many branching paths to write
It's a big game

Anon...

shost gex, bhost glowjobs, fhost gellatio even

Based AIchad

for you

Write it properly or it doesn't count.

Still slow. I think we should start doing monthly threads instead of weekly threads. This way we'll live longer.

Tried to leave.

Stop being so rude.

They should redo the art of scarlet hollow since they have the money now.

A lot of people take for granted that Scarlet Hollow is fucking huge. They wanted to make a “choices matter” game where they actually do, but that means an obscene amount of variables to track. Every episode takes longer than the one before it because there are even more past choices to account for. Slay the Princess was their idea of trying to make something small and constrained. Episode 5 should be out later this year if all goes as planned, with the final two in 2026.

This is fine
We used to consider 22 hours fast

I don't think money is the problem.

They did change some of the art with the recent update. Redrawing everything would probably break every Abby's hands though. As a reminder all of the art in both games is one person.

She's so cute.

you'd all be much happier if you had this thread on Anon Babble instead, y'know

listening to The Magnus Archives again (helps me concentrate while making Doom maps)

see this thread

Get Johnny Sims in Scarlet Hollow dang it, I don't care that there's a billion lines, he's good for it, everyone loves him as the narrator

Nichole's said she'd be willing to voice Tabitha too.

We'd be dead out there by now.

They should finish it at a brisk pace and then move on to game 3
The last thing they need is more work

The whole website is fucking slow after revival. Anon Babble is dying.

Once the last chan dies, where will we go?

Reddit

Bros... It's fucking over...

Death means nothing in the maw of forever.

Cool stuff. How long did it take you to make this video?

Would probably start in the woods. Should the cabin be a circus tent or should the basement be the interior of a circus tent?

I can’t imagine many people getting into an indie with such bad quality art.

bad quality art

Wdym?

Should the cabin be a circus tent

Only if it's chapter 3.

I want to marry Tabitha!

I want to marry Stella!

cannot fuck your cousin

Unbased

Chapter 1 is mid. There are some really good scenes though but maybe its just me.

Kill your family, then kill yourself, subhuman.
Disgusting Xitter trannoid piece of dogshit.
Shill your fucking garbage discord game in its own thread. I'd rather our weeklies die than deal with your cancer.

Still gets me a lil wistful remembering that Damsel got to have her dance

Wow, is this image also made with the help of AI?

u mad?

Just don't scroll up, anon.

isnt everything these days

And that's a good thing.

Probably a couple hundred hours? I'm making a VN engine with it's own editor. The clown scene so far is just a couple hours but all the tools and stuff has been a lot. Also training an AI model on STP art took some time. It's using OpenGL as the renderer inside of Avalonia.

I KNEEL

Holy shit, anon. That's a lot of fucking effort. Thank you, for your content and for still being with us.

why is she clown

She has always been clown, we just never saw it

Don't you feel depressed that you're spending so much time on a half dead thread? Are you doing this for yourself?

I think the thread has been auto saged

Intriguing. Test.

It has, shame.

Over

Liar!

That's weird
I was just about to write a wistful monologue mourning the thread

Clowns are cute.

Based. Have you given up on Jiggle physics anon?

Hey Anon, how did you like Spirit of the north 2?

pic

This Princess is pure evil.

What do you mean anon? She is just interested in wht you are playing.

I bet she's standing behind TLQ with a shit-eating grin.

There wasn't any jiggle physics, just a neat trick with applying parallax across a textured 2d mesh. I'll still use it when it's applicable.

A little, but I still have what I've built so far. I can use it to start my own project. These threads have been a lot of fun anyway. Maybe Black Tabby will make a sequel and we'll be back in a couple years. ;_;

Thats becasue she likes spending time with you

Plan is to finish Scarlet Hollow, finish The Last Halloween (comic, not vidya), then start an isometric RPG that's probably unrelated to their other games.

just a neat trick with applying parallax across a textured 2d mesh. I'll still use it when it's applicable.

Oh yeah that one. Godspeed anon, it looks pretty neat.

These threads have been a lot of fun anyway.

Yeah, those two years were fun... I don't want the StP threads to die. Over these two years I've become too emotionally attached to StP threads and the anons who post here.

We could make regular Scarlet Hollow threads when the new episode comes.

No, she just likes to watch me suffer.

DEATH DOES NOT GIVE LIFE MEANING. These threads are not ending!

We wont't die anon
This thread will continue till the site breathes it's last (In approx 4-10 years)
I will be here with you

Why don't you try to pass the level instead of talking anon

What are you fools doing!? You're oogling and ogling her when you need to be slaying her! Take your hands off dick, pick up your no longer pristine blade, and slay her!

scarlet hollow is the only thing that can save us now

impressive. hope your keeping healthy while working on this

These threads are not ending!

It's ok anon, it'll get better
Your eyes will someday clear

I've been reading through the old threads from the start here and there. Crushes me I missed it all, because I came here in April. It's just not the same seeing everything after the fact.
I wish I had played the game earlier, bros....

I would joing SH threads if I catch them desu. I don't really come here much though. And God knows I am pretty busy rn which takes all my motivation to play shit.

I played the game the day it came out and only joined the threads in this december anon. And I don't feel sad about it.
You should make your peace with the lost convos and bring up topics you wanted to talk about yourself imho.

Sometimes you gotta hop on the flavor of the month when its hot if you want to enjoy the threads peak. Look on the bright side though, at least you did get to enjoy StP at all and those old threads are archived. Imagine if no archive of Anon Babble existed, and every thread was gone forever the second it 404ed.

getting emotionally attached to men

Holy homosexual

It was always going to end Anon, that's just the way of things. However we still still be around, we don't only exist when a StP thread exists. We will still be around in other threads, I for one will be in the Deltarune threads once the new chapters come out.

nta but honestly I amn't around for many threads
I don't play AAA shooters or gacha, and I don't care for any of the wars
If these threads go my posting volume will half

Deltarune sounds nice

getting emotionally attached to men

Yeah, as friends. No homo.

Maybe Black Tabby will make a sequel and we'll be back in a couple years. ;_;

M-Maybe their next game will be as KINO as StP?

Have a little faith guys. If black tabbys second game (StP) is as good as it is. Then their third isometric game will probably be just as good if not better.

Ever since I played this game on release not a day has gone by where I don't think of my beloved Shifty.

Before StP I never really understood the waifufag skylarking but now I truly get it. I can (and have, in these very threads) go on and on about how much I love her and how she's perfect in every way. I'm truly glad these threads have been around for me to for me to gush about my autistic fixation and discuss it with fellow Anons. As much as I wish even more people eventually experience what I deem to be the greatest love story ever told I'm happy it's popular enough to give the devs the financial stability to independently pursue future projects. As for StP itself I am content with leaving it the way it is. Besides, Anons have already gotten around to developing zany mods and shitposting about my Princess to entertain me further.

She is indeed the best thing to have ever happened to me.
Now all that's left for me is to wait for my Collector's edition to arrive.

WTF why is everyone so gloomy? We're not dead yet.

Got the rest of SH to look forward to as well.

One of those weeks... Surely at least I will be more lively come summer....

I'd have more faith if their next game was a vn given they're clearly applied what they learnt from making SH to StP and produced a superior product in terms of structure. But they've said they're planning on making a top down rpg instead, so I'm sure it'll have teething problems too.

I just want a new game like Slay the Princess. I bounced off Scarlet Hollow hard twice, and it's rare for me to give something a fair shot twice.

Based Shiftychad

I can't think of any VN equivalent to StP.

What is that disgusting shit on the left?

Maybe it's an rpg/vn like Disco Elysium?

Scarlet Hollow, their first game which is still being developed.

THAT'S MY WIFE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, PUNK

I'll be honest I don't really like izometric shit. VN's with good structure has a comfy vibe to them that izometric games can't replicate

Why, that would be Scarlet Manor, Kaneeka, Stella, and Tabitha from Black Tabby Games's other ongoing title, Scarlet Hollow, available at a 15% discount to all owners of Slay the Princess!

Slay the Princess

Pale Carnations

Funny how the only two good VNs of the current decade are Western. Japan has fallen. Too bad the Western devs only do the episodic model where they release a half hour of content once every six months.

I just feel nostalgic for the early days of StP threads.

I finally played the game after being gifted it for my birthday last year and I also wish I was in those threads so i don't have to work to find nice fanart and reaction images.
Also is Scarlet Hollow any good?

Scarlet hollow is mid b tier
You will probably like it but if you have a backlog it is likely no better then them

It really depends, the artstyle is the biggest thing that pushed me away from it. It was only after I played StP and other Anon's were talking about it did I really give it a shot. It's pretty alright once you sink your teeth into it, I will play the new chapter once it comes out.

We need to survive until queen of Anon Babble 2025.

When is that again?

but narratorchan is making have these feelings

is Scarlet Hollow any good?

I always like a newcomer to a closed off town mysteries so I am kinda skewed towards it but its pretty good.
I have a few problems with its structure but on the other hand those make the game more interesting too.

What is the best places to search for StP art? Boorus are pretty barren.

Tumbler I'm guessing

November

Anon Babble threads.

Bluesky has a decently pure but slow feed
Only artists actually use it so you don't need to filter through 80% normoid slop
Also tumblr works, and if you reverse image search an image you like, chances are the artist made more like it

RIGGGED!

r*ddit

NarratorCAHDs will win this time, wait and see

You're right, and I try to, yeah, every time I am here.

Yeah, that would be fucking awful. I've been really busy with real life stuff, but I still want to make a -booru clone for every image from the StP threads, and generally any unique STP stuff. Would be fantastic. Looked up Philomena, doesn't seem too difficult, and at least it'd be something else to have handy..

NTA, but as says, these threads are special, because the game is special. I mean, not like unironic sincere posting and actually discussion is the norm at this point on Anon Babble.

Wow, he's me.
I'm even waiting for the Collector's Edition, too. Some store in Belgium fucking carried it, of all places, since I live in Europe and shipping from SF was like 100 euro or something. I'm also waiting for the vinyl. The music in this game is fucking sublime.
But yeah. StP is for me top of all time in terms of love stories, too. Not just, as an experience.
Hell, most vessel paths have more substance to them than entire stories do. I think you don't expect the sincerity, and then it catches you off-guard.
"Autistic fixation" is a nice way to put it I guess. My brain to this day finds lewds of Shifty or most of the vessels almost disgusting, in a way (except for Smut bait Adversary and Tower, they're my least favourite routes in terms of emotional connection and they're clearly just anime tropes). Some sort of case of dealing with enough real relationships and finding something that idealizing doesn't negatively affect.
I don't remember the last time a game managed to make me cry. Maybe Nier Automata, but it rarely happens. But StP managed it, well, at least several times.

tfw not able to explore the wonders of the cosmos and the endless worlds and opportunities with your loving goddess soulmate by your side

Why live?

Where's jam...

He made like 3 oc images, and mentioned working on some stp commissions (That he hasn't posted)
There is no due date on the next bunny girl but it could be this week

So he's alive. That's all I wanted to hear, thank you.

At last I found it. Non-slop AI. I fucking kneel

I just search through my folders

there's no way shes does as well as she did back then. we probably dont get past round 1

If this got a full JP dub it would explode in japan, I guarantee it

Nah, Princess will win this year.

I doubt it. Japanese people only like Japanese games.

If she has a strong campaign like last year it's quite doable.

I'm making a VN engine with it's own editor.

neat.

Aren't they pretty strongly xenophobic?
And isn't StP based almost entirely on western themes like heroes and dragons and princesses and elaborate moral choices?

Japan is cool and all but I don't think they would like it

western themes like heroes and dragons and princesses

Have you ever heard of isekaies anon?

Japan has a big westaboo scene. This would be right up their alley

Everyone likes pretty princesses, anon

And isn't StP based almost entirely on western themes

Isn't Yin-Yang a Japanese thing?

Tony’s on record he took a lot of influence from Taoism.

How many isekais do you remember with dragons kidnapping princesses? (you may list them)
How does one translate the context of slay being used primarily on large beasts?
When was the last time an anime covered the idea of guilt and moral deliberation?
Perhaps, but this isn't what the west is known for
That is a universal appeal, I must admit
Chinese, I believe

The japanese hate the chinese, and for good reason
That isn't really a draw though, it's an artistic choice
What happens in the deep bowels of a thing don't influence much of it's success

Cursed

TLQ: Kono sekai wa owaranai!

Apotheosis: oroka tori...

Happily Ever After starts playing youtube.com/watch?v=SlCw9PErPFQ

Oddly fitting

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO

we're still alive and rolling, that's more than the other fotm stuff that came up and then disappeared since those threads have started.

Gurren Lagann Princess when?

ORE NO PURISUCHIINU BUREEDO WA... PURINCESU WO TSUKU NO BUREEDO DA!

No the princess is NOT a giant robot

I don't get it.

You should go and watch Gurren lagan ASAP anon

Shifty is every possibility.
Therefore there IS a world where she is a mech that throws galaxies as shurikens.

I only played kill the royalty, but is the pronoun game any good? I can ignore the leftist shit if it's actually a decent VN like Slay the Princess.
Also, I heard it's not even finished. Did the guy and his slampig wife ever give an ETA for a finished release?
Also, is the clown princess actually a thing or is it fan made? I've got a thing for clowns, I liked them before clussy became a meme.

Anon, Japan has been copying Western folklore and fables in their media since we occupied their country. They love princesses and knights and shit, for them it's something different and interesting in the same way I love shinto mythology and folklore.

Also, is the clown princess actually a thing or is it fan made?

See

ETA is 2026 according to the devs, and 2027 according to me
It's decent, pretty good for a VN
The clown princess was scrapped, there is one image of her ()
It was made on a livestream at some point

I've got a thing for clowns

Good on you, king

I can ignore the leftist shit

The game agree with you too on that. Pirate and try it anon I think its interesting if nothing else.

Ah, I did think the tits were a bit too big to be the devs, but I still wasn't sure.

Gotta hit the bed. See you later anons

physical was delayed again

How hard is it to make some fucking baubles?

Night Night

gn. hope you have dreams of adversary hugging you

No, they've been coping "the record of the lodoss war"
Chess -> Prussian military sims -> Brownstein -> blackmoor -> DnD -> Lodoss war -> Isekai
None of arthurian canon got in, and classic fairy tales are right out

It's probably Trump's fault.

Goodnight, sweet dreams etc

imagine StP hits big in japan and it gets 10/10 fanart from top tier artists

Very comfy thread this week. I won't even be upset if we don't reach the bump limit.

That would be great, but I don't think it's gonna happen.

Lament, Mourn, Despair. This is the last thread

Centaur Princess

Lamia Princess

Slime Princess

Arachnea Princess

Harpy Princess

Princess can be the entire cast of Monmusu.

It's not the last one.

Last before what?

Centaur Princess

Lamia Princess

Slime Princess

'no'

Arachnea Princess

Harpy Princess

Succubus Princess

human princess

Wolf Princess

Miku princess

And finally

Fairy Princess

Sweaty sex with Adversary in the gym dressing room

Chi Pa Pa!

when you try to hold hands

All those Princesses above.

God, what a huge potential StP has, the devs shouldn't have said they were done with the game.

I don't think that's human. Look at her bug eyes. It's obviously an insect pretending to be a human.

She's so sexy bros

Adversary > Eye of the Needle

so true

It’s better.

Bros, I'm very, very sleepy.

They’ve apparently been approached by Hollywood about adaptations for both games but said no. The only way they’ll agree to a Scarlet Hollow adaptation is if it’s a “What if” where the main character never shows up, and Slay the Princess adaptation never ever.

So go to bed
Baka

"Approached by Hollywood" should always read as less important than most normies give it credit for. Big studios buy up the movie/TV rights to any story with any amount of success just to sit on, or to make as an insurance scam. I would guess less than 1% of things that studios own the rights to ever get made, or even were bought with the intention of being made.

Further, StP would be "too confusing" for a movie audience. I dunno about SH, haven't played it.

passed out for 10 minutes

I guess you're right. Good night, StPbros.

Nighty

What whiplash? They’re both horror/comedy VNs with branching choices.

I feel very sick. Can someone please create a nurse or doctor princess?

Monke Princess?

Stp Movie

I am.... Narrator

For me it's the Fury (Adversary), Wraith and Apotheosis because I'm a self loathing weirdo with no self esteem.

ripping a hole in my soul and using me like a puppet

putting me through an eternity of body horror fuckery

tearing a hole through reality and tearing my mind apart with dissociative pain

I'm not good for much else.

nurse or doctor princess?

See

He meant witchdoctor

tribal shaman witchdoctor witch w/ womb_tattoo

tfw no ending where Broken and Adversary/Fury get a happy ending together

It's literally that
You posted a picture of that specific ending
It got cut off but that is definitely what it was

But... But... I want to see their relationship grow after leaving the cabin....

I've noticed a ton of similarity between monster girl communities and these princess threads, honestly.

- both adore romance
- both fawn over women that can (and may) kill you
- 'choose your favorite' type vibes

Rank princesses from least stinky to most stinky

least stinky is HEA, most stinky is either witch or drowned grey

most stinky

Probably Fury. That exposed flesh isn't going to smell good and will probably smell worse when it gets infected or starts to rot. That would especially go for her nether regions.

Spectre

Actual dead body

Witch

Urine and death

Beast

Wild animal

Tower

Like burnt ash

Razor

Causes a slight burning sensation in your nostrils

Prisoner

Neet sweat (Gross)

Stranger

All

Nightmare

Sickly sweet

Base princess

No smell

Adversary

Tomboy sweat (Erotic) with undertones of iron

Damsel

Smells perfect

did someone say nether regions?

This is, by far, the ugliest fan art I have every seen of this game, and likely one of the ugliest in my life

What Disco Elysium skills would match the personality voices in STP?

Hero - Volition

Paranoid - Inland Empire

Skeptic - Logic

Hunted - Reaction speed

Stubborn - Endurance

Smitten - Drama

Broken - Empathy

Cold - Composure

Opportunist - Suggestion

Contrarian - Conceptualization?

Cheated - ???

broken - empathy

Pain threshold would be more appropriate.
broken is literally me
