Cool, that makes sense!
If you don't mind asking, what do you think looking into the mirror means for these "broken shards of glass"?
YouTube Instagram
Hi! First time using Tumblr, only here cause the Slay the princess fan base seems to be more active here. Anyway, it'll probably mostly be Stp, for now. (。•̀ᴗ-)✧
There's already a few doodle of stp on Instagram, so please check out.
If you are interested in other stuff I made, be sure to see my YouTube!
Note to self of what I'm gonna do for Stp:
Analysis on character/plot
Doodle/Animation
A big animation!!!
Random thoughts that's probably not canon
Maybe ( ╹▽╹ )
Hi?
Sorry for the delay response, real life have been busy, preparing for tests that I probably still messed up lol
Anyway, on to the discussion!
How to get different routes
Good news, I got the the code of Ch 1 ! Hooray! It's A LOT, big respect to @blacktabbygames ! Haven't got the time to look into the whole thing but I might in my free time.
We also have fun messing with the settings, where the narrator's "She will lie, she will..." get cut of by my lazy translation of "meow meow meow...". Though my voice doesn't fit so I won't be posting it, well until it fit.
But here's a screenshot of the silly we've done!
(They call me Potato due to many people mistook my pfp as a Potato, my current username is a mixture of my YouTube (U0_Ghost) and the joke)
And yep, Slay the princess is definitely one of the game which the more info you get the more confuse you got.XD
Voices aware
It's really interesting how they are aware what have happened! And "everyone hates you" is somehow my favourite ending, I like to imagine the long quiet getting beat up by the voices.
(I wanted to draw everyone but remember I haven't finished designing)
To be honest I'm not sure what "voice gets around" means since English isn't my mother tongue, it's a foreign phrase for me.
Visual
Thanks for liking my idea (人*´∀`)。*゚+
I did thought about how the water holds us, but haven't thought of how we hold the princess. I kinda get the feeling, but how to draw us holding her is a bit confusing, maybe like glue? Or broken container?
Your fic
I think I might draw the first split, it's where all the chaos started LOL but I'm still working on how to draw voices when they have no body and talking among each others, or maybe just the punch scene.
Also, congratulations on releasing chapter 5! It was really fun to read, love the Contrarian's body language (since we finally have some lively body, unlike Skeptic&Cold who has a more subtle ones)
And out the window we go! Yay! I've been waiting for that to happen and it it VERY satisfying :D
There's so much more I want to scream about, and it's a lot, so put it simpler, "great job! I love every second of it!"
Btw, do you think that in your story is still greyscale, or do you think it would have colours?
First if all,
OMG someone actually responded! With so much! And it's the author of "wear whatever feathers you choose"!!!
I'm really happy that you decided to respond and think about it, and your fanfic is really great, I'd already read multiple times, love how you portray the voices.
I'm not really good with words but I'll try my best to also share my opinions on your thoughts, if you don't mind.(I hope you don't)
Separation of SM & LQ is not clean
I'll be honest here, I haven't seen all of the dialogue with narrator in the confrontation scene, only partially. But I think I've seen someone else also mentioned it? Might have new thoughts after I watch every single of them.
It's really interesting to think that due to a part of her being part of you, you change just like she did. And I hadn't actually thought of them breaking off because you cannot change completely, that's new! :D
Voices=reason that get us killed
Agee
I never got a chance to play slay the princess, and only had the chance to engage through playthrough recently, by helping a friend translate.
It's funny how when my friend played the adversary, the only reason they got that path is because since they already start fighting her, might as well finished the job. Not sure if that counts as stubborn, but I guess it's similar? They didn't back out from the fight, and both of them shall perish together.
In the adversary, they were scared of the princess and choose with a careful approach which resulted in the hunted, "Fear is good, fear keeps us alive". But it's also fear that causes us to lose, and gives us the ability to sense.
A few more things that I hope you don't mind sharing opinions on
Does looking at the mirror makes us whole again or is it something else?
If we're in are mirror what will the princess be? (Just asking for art reason)
I'm not really good with words (more of a art person), but I hope I convey my point. Thanks again for responding!
Interesting, I'll see what I could gather after my friend played to the shifting mound part.
I think maybe "the hero" is what the creator thought:
What we, the player assumes:
What the princess would assume
P.s. I'm going to open some sort of draw your headcannon/fanfic in the near future. I like your fanfic and know you also draw, but I'm not sure if you animate. So if I may, is there any specific scene that you wish to be animate?
Thanks again for responding, and of course I would like your fic! I can really feel the heart that you pour into them (人*´∀`)。*゚
Sorry for the previous long reblog, I haven't noticed, fix done.
And here's my response:
Separate roughly
Thanks for the confirmation! I like checking out others playthrough a lot, but what I like more is understanding the motive of the player's action, so translating for a friend definitely fun and gives me more understanding on the player's decision. The simplified way my friend got adversary is:
Take the knife (essential)->ask all questions (hesitate?) ->try saving but doesn't bother to fully do it -> slay her (essential) ->persist (essential)
From what I gather, the difference between other take knife choice is whether you go straight for the kill (Spectre), question dead/have knife (Razor), gave up or not (Tower), and run away(Nightmare).
The others are rather clear on what to do, while adversary is a bit unclear for me. The friend of mine knows some coding so I might ask them to look inside for me, to better understand what the creator of the game thinks.
Voice and mirror
Ohh, that's really interesting! I've known about "we've always been here" but never thought of it like that, I would like to imagine as cracks on glasses that are barely visible, but with every death, it cracks and falls off. And the shifting mound use duct tape to fix us lol
I admit I am not sure what you mean by this
I'll first explain the reason for the question:
I like slay the princess-> I want to contribute to the fandom
I draw art, want to be lore accurate->gather info->ask people to clarify info
I was kind of going for a metaphor sense, so I can get a better grip on the character to know how I want to present them. (which is also the exact same reason I haven't made much fanwork lol)
That's why I've asked you on what you think the princess would be. The "I don't think that we are ever in the mirror" reminds me that it's"shard of glass" not mirror, sorry if my bad memory confuses things.
"Everything in there that isn't you is Her" and how she responded after collecting a vessel makes me imagine scattered glasses and hands floating in a growing water, as you collect more vessels, the water eventually grows from ponds to ocean. The changing current bringing the glass piece together and apart (or maybe something else).
After watching my friend play and your explanation, I think I have a grasp on how I want to do. Thanks for giving me your opinion on stp, it really helps constructing what I'm going for! If you see all the strikethrough, don't mind them, it's just my intrusive thoughts.
P.s. I'm going to open some sort of draw your headcannon/fanfic in the near future. Really likes your fics and want to draw them, if you don't mind, is there any specific scene that you wish to be drawn/animated?
