โฃ Status: Currently On Hiatus...
You were a success, a top-secret government experiment that bared fruitful results. Brought to The Facility as a child, your earliest and only memory has been this place. The only thing you have left of the past is the unknown figures you see in your dreams and a name you're not even sure is yours. Long overshadowed by the trauma that trumps the faceless figures in your dreams, horrifying nightmares of the evil deeds you've witnessed. Illustrating the heinous acts you've committed in order to survive, leaving only everlasting trauma left in wake of the inhumane experiment. And a close bond with the others who sadly share the same fate.
- Play as a top-secret government experiment, turned super-powered super soldier.
- Fully customizable protagonist, e.g. appearance, personality, sexuality, style choice etc.
- Choose from an array of game choices that will affect the course of the story, every step of the way.
- Build both romantic and platonic relationships or make life-long enemies.
- Go on kickass missions which hopefully won't end up kicking your ass.
- Use your powers in various ways, exploring it's range and versatility.
- Discover the truth about your past , the sickening secrets kept in the dark and what to do when that time finally comes...
One [M/F] - (RO, Romanceable by the opposite gender only)
Personality : The straight-laced and no nonsense leader of The Special Unit (S.P.U), constantly striving for perfection. One is a natural born leader and star soldier within The Facility, excelling at whatever they put their mind to. One is never afraid to put the work in to be better, do better and lead their fellow teammates to greatness...by any means necessary.
Protective - Dominant - Determined - Diligent
Physical Description:
(Male) : One stands at 5ft 10 with a strong build, bathed in rich cinnamon-brown skin, embellished by a thin scar on his left-side cheekbone. Framed by a thick, dark brown buzzcut complimenting his piercing hazel green eyes and pierced ear lobes.
(Female) : One stands at 5ft 7 with a strong build, bathed in rich cinnamon-brown skin, embellished by a thin scar on her left-side cheekbone. Framed by short, thick, dark brown hair complimenting her piercing hazel green eyes and pierced ear lobes.
Zero [M/F] - (RO, Romanceable by all MC's)
Personality : Second in command and the very embodiment of calm, cool and collected. Zero is the personification of elegance and grace, charming with a sickeningly sweet, forked tongue that demands all. Seemingly perfect, there is nothing that Zero hasn't been able to obtain by use of honeyed words or strict force. Equipped with a sharp eye and even sharper wit, it is wise never to cross them...
Manipulative - Strategic - Quick witted - Seductive
Physical Description:
(Male) : Zero stands at 6ft 4 with a lean build, accompanied by rich cinnamon-brown skin. Adorned with mysterious light brown eyes; framed by long, thick, dark brown hair cascading down to his shoulder blades and pierced earlobes.
(Female) : Zero stands at 6ft with a lean build, accompanied by rich cinnamon-brown skin. Adorned with mysterious light brown eyes; framed by long, thick, dark brown hair cascading down to her shoulder blades and pierced earlobes.
Viper [F] - (RO, Romanceable by all MC's)
Personality : Third in Charge and an absolute force to be reckoned with, Viper is an imposing and formidable figure within The Facility. A soldier like no other, Viper is someone that anyone would want as a trustworthy ally, rather than a fearsome opponent. Cold as ice and as hard as steel, she serves as the hardened backbone and fierce protector of the team.
Observant - Strong willed - Protective - Cut throat
Physical Description : Viper stands at 5ft 9 with a toned build, stern dark brown eyes encompassed by chestnut-brown skin. Framed by thick, dark brown nape-length tresses; a pierced nose and pierced earlobes.
Wolfe [M] - (RO, Romanceable by Female MC's only)
Personality : One of two resident clowns on the team, Wolfe loves to have fun and crack jokes, often times at the expense of others. Though despite his playful nature, he is careful to toe the line between pointed jokes and outright cruelty. Both intuitive and empathetic, Wolfe is mindful not to let his good-natured humour and silly pranks hurt others. However, one should never let his carefree demeanour and kind nature fool them, for this soldier has a fierce temper that burns hot and spares no one.
Charming - Athletic - Jovial - Laid back
Physical Description : Wolfe stands at 5ft 11 with an athletic build, encompassed by chestnut-brown skin. Earnest dark brown eyes, and a small scar on his right-side eyebrow bone. Framed by thick, layered, dark brown shoulder-length hair and pierced earlobes.
Hex [F] - (RO, Romanceable by all MC's)
Personality : Resident cutie and literal sunshine of the team, Hex makes up one half of the S.P.U's dynamic comedic duo. Friendly, extroverted and always up for an adventure, Hex is a bundle of spontaneous joy jam packed into such a small frame. Though despite her soft nature and small stature, Hex is nothing to laugh at. Quick on her feet, nimble and agile, her enemies never see it coming...until they have a knife lodged in their throat.
Kind - Endearing - Sociable - Energetic
Physical Description : Hex stands at 5ft 2 1/2 with a lithe build, accompanied by twinkling light brown eyes. Encompassed by chestnut-brown skin, framed by thick, light-brown nape-length hair and pierced earlobes.
Ghost [M/F] - (RO, Romanceable by all MC's)
Personality : The cool tactician and hacker of the S.P.U. Haughty and frigid, Ghost believes themselves to be better than most, if not the entire human population...Aloof, calculated and seemingly disconnected from the world around them. Perhaps this standoffish genius simply seeks solace in science, as a means to be intellectually challenged and quietly comforted in an environment that demands they spill blood to earn their keep.
Blunt - Indifferent - Rational - Merciless
(Male) : Ghost stands at 5ft 9 with a lithe build encased in freckled porcelain skin and cynical dark brown eyes, framed by nape-length strawberry blonde hair and pierced earlobes.
(Female) : Ghost stands at 5ft 5 with a lithe build encased in freckled porcelain skin and cynical dark brown eyes, framed by nape-length strawberry blonde hair and pierced earlobes.

El juego podra estar disponible para descargar?incluso si es como un html
Sรญ, pero no hablo espaรฑol ๐
it says the page was updated 2 days ago was that a page/description change
or an actual demo update? also love the game idea can't wait to see what you do with it.
The public demo was updated on the 8th July 2024, I don't keep track of page/description changes.
And thank you, I can't wait to see what I do with it either ๐
Akskwjsksjsk that was the DEMO KBSKVKBSKBWLABS i need moreiejeuejeke Ahem- Sorry- but I like It VERY muchhhhhhh (and the aesthetic is just... โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ) so I hope it'll update soon!! With no rush and all :))
Lol thank you โค๏ธ I'm glad you're enjoying the game. Unfortunately, the demo is on the shorter side because I'm re-writing it. And, proof reading the old content has been harder for this game than the other.
However, I hope to get a update out for later next month, so stay tuned for that ๐
(P.s. I'm so glad you're loving the visuals, I'm a sucker for visuals myself ๐๐)
AAHHH REALLYYY?? I'll be waiting for any little update! :)
I'm probably misunderstanding, but does the demo only have one scene where you can make a choice? Right when I clicked on one, it said "end of demo". I was hoping to see what the character customization looked like, or how the personality choices would affect how the MC acts/talks in the story etc...
The other comments mention gender choice and I definitely haven't seen that part :'(
No, you're not mistaken, that is where the demo ends. Any other comments you've seen are in relation to the old game demo, currently both my games are going through a "re-write" so the demos are much shorter now.
The A.B.O demo will progress to add the formentioned game features that you're interested in. However, both of my game projects are simply passion projects, I make little to no money from either of them.
I also have many outside factors in my day to day life that affect the progression of my writing. So, I do as much as I can when I can when writing and coding each game. It's slow and I wish I had both the time and willpower to do more, but life is relentless and I still power through, so it's better than nothing.
So, dunno if this is how it should be but I can't pass the gender choice. If the demo should be so short im cool with that but i have a feeling this isn't right.
No, you're right it was my mistake. The game is supposed to end when you pick your personality choice. It has since been changed, so thanks for pointing it out to me ๐๐พ
man… I keep coming back to this demo ๐ฐ you have me in a chokehold,Bonner.
๐๐
Did the demo change? I last played this game like 4-6 months ago and loved it, came back to play it again and everything is different. Love the new stuff but miss the old one too.
Yeah, it's currently undergoing a re-write, I'm glad that you enjoyed the old demo but I just wasn't happy with my writing. I've gotten better now as a writer, and I really wanted my work to reflect that.
However, I dont plan to completely scrap everything. Some things will be kept in place, just re-worded. Some scenes will be placed elsewhere to make room for others etc.
I can't say right now how everything will be, but it'll definitely be better that's for sure. And, will make way for the MC to start forming relationships with the other characters much earlier.
Trust the process.... ๐๐๐พ
I see thanks for the info. Going to have to keep an eye on this definitely has some great potential. Looking forward for more content! ๐
I loved the new interface๐ฉท
Thank you! I'm glad you like it ๐
Problem here, Mobile browser
After reaching the third choice, i cant progress, i will try some reloads and resets to see if it is a me problem
Edit: Isnt a me problem, it seems like a soft-lock
Same, and not on mobile.
Lmao we are dumb, this is everything, the game is on 0.2 xD
I'm sorry guys, the demo actually ends there ๐ After work, I'll definitely add some sort of notice in game to make that obvious.
Naah u are good xd, the game have a lot of potential also!
Thank you ๐ฅน I really appreciate that ๐๐พ
I know you probably get this a lot but the screen is split when I open it up on my iPhone?
I've changed something now, so hopefully that works. If not, then I'm sorry to say I have no idea what to do next ๐
I tried playing this on phone and the screen is literally split I tried changing the settings but I canโt see anything
Can you take a picture of it? Because everything looks fine on both my phone & laptop, so I can't actually see the problem.
Thank you ๐๐พI've looked into it and since changed some coding. So hopefully that fixes the issue, if not please don't hesitate to message me again.
ofc! Itโs a great game I had no issues on my computer itโs a well written story and I hope you could fix the problem!
Thank you so much ๐๐พ๐ฅน and I'm glad.
Iโm playing on mobile and the screen is split down the middle by the setting side bar so the story is cut off and unreadable.
I checked everything before I uploaded the game, and everything seemed to be working fine on my phone ๐ but I did make some additional changes, so hopefully that works ๐ค๐พ thank you for letting me know โจ
regarding the problem of missing UI on andriod devices, I know that twine games can work on apps like Joiplay, but the game have to be downloaded for it to be imported, which leads to me wanting to ask if you can provide a download link for the game, so I can play on my tablet. It would be totally fine if not tho, as I did notice that you will also be handing out all the codes you put together with the game. Thanks for your hard work!
Hi,
First of all, I just want to say that I'm glad you're enjoying my work and I greatly appreciate the support ๐๐พ
Secondly, the problem with the UI bar should be fixed and functional on all platforms. I've fixed it recently and I've tried it on both my laptop & android and everything is fine. So if there's still a problem, please break it down for me ๐ญ though I will look into providing a download link, but please keep in mind that I'm no computer or coding expert ๐
love the story! Although in the prologue Im kinda confused with POV change. Its manageable, just confusing.
With regards to the mobile version. I think the interface is not stable, when I clicked the profile theres no back button. I opened the game in two different browsers. If used in chrome in the opening page of the game, the one with warning, the left arrow drawer appears theres the back or forward button. After you click the warning page to proceed the arrow drawers would be gone.
in duckduckgo browser, no arrow drawers or back button whatsoever, the only way is to proceed forward.
nevertheless, really enjoyed this story, awaiting for more updates! Thanks for sharing your game.
Hi!
Thank you so much, I'm so glad that you're enjoying the game despite all the issues ๐ญ When I play it on my laptop or phone everything works just fine, and I'm not exactly a coding whiz. So I'm kinda lost on what to do there, but I am working on coding a better mobile version for the game so hopefully that'll work. When I eventually figure out the best way to do it that is....๐
However, what I can fix is the POV change. In regards to that, I'll try to make it clearer as to who's speaking when the changes occur. So, thank you for letting me know ๐๐พ
It seems the UI is not compatible with mobile version? There's no UI when I played it on mobile, I can't save nor see the infos bar, so I had to play on PC..
Other than that, the game is really interesting! The characters so far also interesting! I freaking love the lunatic MC XD. I'm looking forward for future updates! ^^
Really? I mean I did enable the 'mobile friendly' setting, and it's fine when I play it on my phone. I'll try to figure out what the problem might be, but I'm not exactly very tech savvy. So I'll do the best I can, hopefully the problem is simple enough๐ฃ
But all that aside, I'm so glad you're enjoying the game. And I feel you, a crazy MC is the best MC ๐
I love this so freaking much AND i think i learned a thing or two in class with Mrs. M
I'm so glad you're enjoying the game ๐ and I know Mrs M would be especially happy to know she's helped you learn something new.
Iโve decided that Hex. Is not doing a good job of being the littlest baby brat of the family. So my MC has decided to do it for her. You hear that Hex? Iโm coming for your brand๐
The funniest thing about this comment, is that Hex would actually be offended that you think she IS the baby or the brat of the team. When in actuality the person you have beef with, is none other than Ghost ๐๐ญ
Ngl, seeing the new layout for this makes it easier on my eyes (the pure white blinded me for a sec-)
But overall can't wait for any upcoming updates for this ^^
Oh dang, I had never noticed ๐ Which is weird because I have quite sensitive eyes. So when people started mentioning that the white screen was hurting their eyes, I was so taken aback. This is why feedback is so important ๐ญ
I'm glad you're looking forward to it. And don't worry, I'll still be trying to get things done on my end๐
OMG THE UPDATE IS SO JUICY COOCHIE PUSSY VAGINA SLAY TRIP TO FLOPTROPICA BAY
Huh
๐ ๐ญ
I-
What in the.....
10 MORE DAYS AAAAAA I CANT WAIT!!!!
โฅ๏ธ๐
Are you still writing this? I hope so because I really love it. :)
Hi again!
Lol yes, I'm still working on it. The next update is the 31st of March, so stay tuned for that. Also, I'm so glad you're enjoying this game as well. Again, thank you for your support ๐
MY GOD! that was beyond amazingโกโกโก
Thank you so much!๐ I'm glad you're enjoying the game ๐
OMG I POPPED MY KITTY SO HARD AND MADE THAT PDF CRY FOR HELP YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS PERIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
If I can make pdfile suffer, it's already start for slay game
๐ I gotta tell you at first I was so damn confused, I said wtf is a pdfile. I had to Google it, my dumbass thought it was some kinda Google doc ๐ญ๐ But I'm glad you're enjoying the game, I'm the kind of person who strongly believes in street justice. Especially where the 'justice' system fails us, so you'll definitely be able to torture a lot more criminals in the future ๐
at least somewhere i can take revenge on those rotten tea bags
im grasping at my goddamn screen. I LOVE YOUR WORK AND UGHHH I CANNOT WAIT FOR MORE! Thank you for your wonderful brain <3
No thank you, I was having a pretty crappy day and you're message alone completely turned that around. I'm so glad that you enjoy my work, and equally grateful for your support โค๏ธ
STOPPPP im happy I made your day, But im really just telling the truth <333 You're doing amazin
Did anyone tell you that whatever you write, it's all insanely amazing <3!!!!
โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ๐ฅนโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
โค๏ธโจ
Aaaa need moreee
Lol I'm working on it, l swear. Life is just a lot right now....as always๐ But I'm glad you're enjoying the game at least.
Understandableูซ Iโm remaking my game ATM so I understand
Imma be honest. I can't wait for the full version of this! It was amazing! And I loved all the different reactions from each choice
I'm happy that you're enjoying the game, and thank you so much for your kind words ๐ฅน๐
Hello. I don't have much to say besides I really enjoy this game so far.
Hi,
What you said is plenty, thank you for your kind words. And I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far๐
simon says doesnt have a continue link!
That particular section is currently under construction, so there isn't a continuation link at the moment. However, there is for 'Simon Says' if you'd like to try that.
I really adore your games, and I hope you get some rest.^^
I also wonder if we can do a fake out death once we find out about MC's past-Hi Akuwaku,
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words๐ and I'm glad you're enjoying the games.
Also, fake out death? Do you mean the MC faking their own death, once they find out about their past? ๐
Mhm!
Imagine MC just going off the grid after an accident happened on a mission. But in reality it was planned in order to escape the confines of the facility and be free from their grasps, but it not knowing that in doing so would devastate ALOT of certain people.
*cough* RO'S + Platonic *cough*
Imagine the ANGST (ESPECIALLY if the MC & an RO/s were like a thing or at least crushing)
That is actually......a really good idea ๐
๐ But all jokes aside, it's a great idea and I can practically taste the sweet angst from here. Though, there are 2 good reasons why the MC would never do that:
1. They can't, literally. You see for all their power, strength, high rankings within The Facility and overall capabilities. The Special Unit is kind of helpless against The Facility, who view them as nothing more than government attack dogs. And, every dog needs a good leash....one in which, The Facility has tightly wrapped around their necks.
Which is why, if the MC were to ever pull a stunt like that. The Facility would know about it, and the MC would be punished immensely for it. In fact, a similar incident took place once in the past, which is why all the S.P.U members know never to try something like that
2. The MC would literally never do that, even if they could pull it off. As the game progresses, you'll get to see just how close each member is to one another. They're practically family, and all eachother has. They've literally grown up together, and have had eachother's backs through everything.
There's also one member in particular, who sacrificed much for the betterment of The Special Unit. In fact, if they hadn't....in a sick way to put it, 'taken one for the team.' The Special Unit would never have been formed, and the treatment they received as children would have continued.
So the MC's actions, would've been a complete slap in the face. Especially in regards to that particular member and, they would all hate the MC. Even fight them actually ๐ and with good reason too. The S.P.U members have literally grown up in hell, and through their struggles, they have become eachother's support system.
So none of them, would ever even think of leaving the others to parish in that hell hole. The MC's disappearance would also, put a large target on all their teammates and mentors' backs. Essentially, putting them at risk of being 'eliminated.'
Though despite all of that.....The MC will certainly have the opportunity, to betray a couple of people. Even, break a few hearts....already has actually ๐
I am intrigued, and yes I understand those reasons(2nd one especially) completely. I also have a few other "what if's" & "imagines" but I'll save that when you open asks. Once again I love the thought you put into this!
Oh, you can totally send in "what IF's" & "imagines", hell send in as many as you like. I love those, and I've actually always wanted to do them. I just didn't think I had enough content out, for people to start sending those in. So by all means go right ahead, I only ask that you send them to me on Tumblr, which is linked on my profile.
Just to let you know NSFW askes, imagines etc. are also welcome, though only for Vice Virtue at the moment. As the MC and the RO's of Alpha, Beta, Omega are all underage, and I obviously don't feel comfortable writing them in that light.
Though, I will for any other characters of legal age. And, lastly of course! You took the time to really think the game through, so why wouldn't I when asked a damn good question? ๐ And, possibly a plot line for another game of mine ๐๐
Plus, I love recieving questions and suggestions like yours, because it really makes me think. Do I know my game? Have I thought it through from all angles? Is there a hole in the plot, that I'm not seeing? And, it's nice to get a fresh perspective. From someone who doesn't already have the whole story in their head๐ #authorproblems
This demo was a joy to play, I'm really looking forward to how this game will turn out! Definitively one I'm going to keep my eye on for any future updates.
Hi Morbid Crow,
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words, you've really made my day๐ And, I'm so glad you're enjoying the game.
The game is good so far!! The UI is clean, given how fresh this game is, The writing is super good, and We arent bombarded with information, which is always a plus. Im really looking forward to future updates.
Hi Bambiitan,
Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad you're liking the game so far! :) I know the UI bar looks like there's not much in it, but you would be surprised๐ There's more content in it than you think, but it's all hidden. Because, I went ahead and coded hidden info that you have yet to unlock in the game๐ฉ So the info just sits there, unnoticed, like a sad clown ๐คก
Lol, I try not to bombard you guys with a lot of info, because when it's done to me I tend to get overloaded like an old computer. So, instead I spoon feed you guys bits of info one at a time, rather than force feeding it to you lol. Also, I'm glad you're looking forward to the future updates, your support is always appreciated! :)
I've noticed your game. I just wanted to offer some pointers:
Colors are important, and readability is also important. Make sure to use <<nobr>> and <<endnobr>> with <br>s to reduce whitespace in sections that hold content that may not appear to the player. As well, <<linkreplace>> and <<linkappend>> are also good tools to use to keep the game feeling like a game. Some of the screens are really hard to read, but I like the concept. I'd love to give this a longer try after some more work.
Hi,
I'm still new to coding so thank you for the tips, I'll definitely take your advice on board. And, lol yes I realized how much of a burden the colour changes are on the eyes, so that's going for sure.
Quick question what type of game format is this called? I'd like to look up more like it.
SugarCube 2.36.1 aka SugarCube 2
Can I ask just how far the game is in development? I was playing and seemed interesting but I got to talking to the hostages and already there was unfinished dailouge options.
Hi,
I don't want to ruin anything for you, so I won't name a specific scene. However, the game progresses much further than that, and continues after the hostage situation. I think the problem is, that you may be choosing dialogue choices that have the symbol (NF) next to it. Which stands for 'Not finished', if you avoid those choices for the time being, the game will progress. Though, I'll be sure to make that clearer to readers, when I next update the game.
Ah gotcha I understood what nf meant but it being so early in the game made me wonder if the game had just started development.
I think I started late last year, though at the time I was also working on many other games. So, my attention was cut between each of them. Now, as much as I want my games to have real world variation.
It can also be quite draining, accomodating for many different variables. So, sometimes I just skip a particular scene and carry on with the story. That way I won't go crazy, and I can come back later to fill in those missing scenes bit by bit with a fresh perspective.
I just got to Avi answering one of the questions back at base I assume that's the end?
Yes.
Found an error
My choises were: "lure them away" and then "hand the gun to the girl"
Also since theres no "This persons POV" (or something of the sort) after this point it gets confusing whos talking/thinking right now. You might want to add some sort of indicator.
Other than that I quite like the game, your writing is good!
Hi,
Thank you for pointing that out to me, I have since fixed the coding error. Also, thank you for bringing the POV dilemma to my attention. I wasn't aware that I hadn't specified who was speaking, in that particular part of the game (This is why feedback is so helpful). I have since added additional text to that option, so hopefully that will clear up any misunderstandings.
Lastly, thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far :)
Bug report PT.2
Hi, it's me again lol
Might just be because of a typo, since I'm pretty sure "ture" is supposed to be "true"?
Lol hi Lacxin,
Thank you for pointing out that error to me, it has since been fixed. And, you were right about the problem, I did write 'ture' instead of 'true' lol.
Bug report PT.3
Guess who's back, back again- anyway
(This is right after entering what your codename is) I think you've forgotten to put the "$" sign in front of it
Also
This is when One is referring to us (the reader) right before choosing our pronounce so I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be "their"
Also also, I have a question lol
Why isn't Wolfe an option when deciding who to sit next to in class?
lol Hi again Lacxin,
Thank you for pointing out the errors to me, they have since been fixed. And to answer your question about Wolfe, well he isn't an option to sit next to in class, because unlike the rest he really doesn't need to be lol. Who you're sat next to in class becomes a factor in the next update, one that doesn't affect Wolfe in the least. So stay tuned to find out ;)
It's great ill give you that but I was playing Simon says with the gunmen and got slapped with a to be continued.
Thank you! and lol it be like that sometimes, I'm keen to get that section done by the next update though.
I think it's a great game so far, really looking forward to the future updates.
keep up the good work!
Thank you! I really appreciate it, and I'll try not to disappoint :)
The game is very interesting! I look forward to reading the rest of the story! Good luck with the development. <3
Thank you so much! :) <3
