Happy One-Month-iversary, murderfuckers!!

As of today, the alpha of SLASHER U: ACT 1 has been out for one month!! Here are some stats:

• We hit 461 total downloads! blaze it etc etc (I wrote this when it was 420 D: )
• 50 new followers! Hi, y'all!!
• According to polls, the character you guys boinked most on launch week was Hex, followed by Tate! (Guess the Sexecutioner title's earned!)
• Average rating on Itch.io: 5 stars!!! Seriously, you guys are the BEST. :')
• Launch Day CTR: 6%, Launch Week CTR: 1.5-1.7%, Current CTR: 0.92-0.98%
• One major expansion (the Sawyer update!)
• Fun fact: My favorite piece of writing in this is Hex's slow-dance sequence (i get wobbly every time I have to playtest it, lmfao.), as WELL as Tate's general overarching storyline! My fave sexytime minigame is either Hex's pre-BDSM one or Sawyer's, uh, everything. Sawyer pls
• Fun fact 2: This game was made in Wolf RPG Editor! Every system, UI/UX, core mechanic etc was handmade by me with no plugins (except the inventory mgmt, basic keyboard movement, & basic choice-select/message display system which is built into Wolf)! I loooooove systems design & worked as a systems dev in games for a short time before burning out of the industry ;)
• Fun fact 3: Each main romance character has an internalized Feelings Meter that is a weighted system based on your actions, not just +/- favor points; so your personality, story tags, and their personality keeps a running tally of how much they like you in a more nuanced way. Inspired by Dragon Age 2, each romance also has changes based on your SIMILARITY to the romanced character (think friendship/rivalry romances)! I saw someone ask about Sawyer's route the other day and I realized I should write a cheat guide, haha.

As always, the poll for Which Un-Romanceable Character Should Be Romanceable is going on on the main site (check the right-hand sidebar)! I'm also collecting any screenshots of stuff you enjoyed for the future non-alpha launch! I'm also pretty active on the Slasher U tumblr where I answer questions and shitpost and all that!

 AND I put up a Thread of Serious Scientific Inquiry asking who you ended up boinking/liking best now that Sawyer's out in the wild! (To answer my own question: I have a special soft spot for Tate but I wrote Hex to be basically Dream Boyfriend Material, so he's my perfect beefcake choice of the day!)

I wanted to thank all y'all again for following along, and I cannot WAIT to keep working on this thing. It means SO FUCKING MUCH TO ME that y'all like the game & are having a good time & connecting with the characters & vibing & getting your rocks off, too! 🔪 Get ready for the ride of your (un)life, Slasher U student disembody!! <3333
