Project Mocker™

You find yourself in a sparkly void?!

(Content self rated PG to maybe Teenish? ...Content Warnings will be included in the description so players can make an informed decision before playing.)

And then are greeted by the silhouette of a no less sparkly angel. She welcomes you into the world of her imagination, offering you the chance to speak to one of her favorite OCs (Tom) in one of three locations!:

The Back Alley! (With fresh dumpster pizza!)

The Streets! (With Tom's protective best friend watching you closely)

and last but not least!-

The Church! (With lovely stained glass windows)

The location is yours to choose!

There is one ending per each area, so no need to worry about bad endings! (Look, it's my first game I've ever properly coded. It's not going to be grandiose. This is a mini VN after all lol)

BUT

You can make different choices and see different dialogue! The pronouns are gender neutral, and I attempted to give players a range of answers from time to time in conversation. So you can be yourself and just relax in this lil game!

The events in this game take place in the year 2025, hence why Tom is 17 rather than his current age. (My OCs age in real time lol)

This game is NOT:

A dating sim whatsoever. Tom as featured in this game is a minor, and uninterested in dating whatsoever. Even at his current adult age, he remains uninterested and will forever remain uninterested in dating and romance~<3

(However... That's not to say I WON'T EVER make a dating sim about an adult OC sometime in the future lol)

So what are you waiting for?! Download this game for free virtual dumpster pizza, and a wholesome conversation with my chaotic boi today! >:3

(Now onto Content Warnings and Credits. While I plan for them to appear in the finished game, I'm also going to post them on this page so players can gauge their comfort level as well know what to expect in this game.)

Content Warnings

The following game was created with the intention of being family friendly, and playable by most anybody. While I'm no expert game rater, I would guesstimate this game to be PG to maybe PG-13 ish? I'd also like to make the important note that I'm a Christian. And while you don't have to be a Christian to play my game, or to fully enjoy it, religious themes can and will occur in my games as a result.

The following content to expect in this game includes:

Religious themes (talk of religion as well as one of the settings being a church)

Very brief mention of alcohol and a family friendly bar

And one scene where violence is threatened to the player's life with a poorly drawn gun. (in the bonus content after playing the main game)

If any of this content makes you feel uncomfortable with playing my game, feel free to skip out on this one and play whichever feels right to you! Thank you for taking time out of your day to consider my game!

CREDITS/EASTER EGGS

Easter eggs (that don’t pertain to anything that I‘ve personally created.) include: Shyguy Mask from the “Super Mario™” series. (it can be found as graffiti on Tom’s dumpster, in honor of him originally being a Shyguy fancharacter.)
