It feels unreal, but The Golden Rose has a Steam page!!! Look at how shiny it is.
It would mean the world if you could add it to your Wishlist! Even if you plan to get it on another platform, the more people Wishlist, the more it helps the game - plus, you’ll be notified on release day, so you don’t even have to come to Tumblr to hear me shout it from the rooftops.
If you’re feeling generous, please reblog and share with friends and family and even begrudged rivals who you think might enjoy an interactive fiction game.
Today is the 7th of February, which means that in exactly two months - if it all goes well - the game will be released. It has been a long wait, and it’s not over yet, but the end is definitely in sight.
playing any game with romances causes me to make up approximately seven million little stories in my head that lead absolutely nowhere and are nothing but my character and the character i have chosen travelling and protecting each other in combat and giving each other meaningful looks when something is amiss and making each other laugh and having really deep conversations about life and death and what a shitty situation they’re in

finally jumped on the bandwagon and played the public demo of @anathemafiction’s The Golden Rose!! All i really have to say is this: Hadrian my Beloved
My days don’t have enough hours lately… I started reading “The Golden Rose” (available via Hosted Games) by @anathemafiction … I am only in chapter 4 so far but I am already hooked. The writing is amazing, the characters are adorable and I love my MC Lyra. (She’s sarcastic to a fault and still hasn’t realized how much of a crush she has on Hadrian…)
And while I am playing too many games at the moment and have a pile of books on my nightstand and several Patreon rewards I should be working on I allowed myself to get engrossed with “The Golden Rose” and I need to know how it continues because there are so many secrets I need to know about.
And while my motivation bubbles I had to do at least a sloppy sketch of Lyra … nothing fancy, nothing I will continue… but I still want to share it and tell everyone who loves to read interactive fiction that “The Golden Rose” is amazing and you should get it!!
