• NEW TRAILER and FINAL UPDATE HERE - 24 February 2023

  YO! This will be the final update here before moving to the new page here on steam. With the release of the novel 90 days or so away, The demo and early release of the visual novel will be before that. Some changes to the idea of extras in the Visual Novel have taken place. I thought about doing tokens or shards as discussed in a previous post, but splitting up the token cost among the numerous scenes is way complicated and frustrating. I solved this issue by deleting the tokens and unlocking scenes as a reward for reading the related chapter. I have also grouped them by chapters so they no longer have their own unlock gallery. I have added two modes to the Visual Novel. The 'EASTERN MODE' and 'WESTERN MODE' will be modes that will show sex and nudity or not. If you played The Surfeit: Episode One and got to clothing store, you should understand this concept. You can switch between them…

• New Year. New Details. - 18 December 2022

  All Happened Before As previously said, The visual novel was to supplement the core story and explore multiple alternate realities based on choice. It was designed as a 'what if' story with a more profound character background and world-building than the paperback novel. While this project has been canceled, The Surfeit visual novel will continue, but it will be a copy of the core story and have nothing to do with the alternate realities. Release Date For The Surfeit: Complete, the release is set about April 2024. It will be 13 months after the release of the paperback book and e-book. The Steam Store page will go up this coming summer / autumn with early release available. There will be a price to pay for this product, but that price has not been determined. Doing it solo I am doing this alone. My skill set is limited. I do not have a team like some of the other visual novels offered h…

• The Surfeit: Complete - 20 July 2022

  Good day! Due to demand to continue the story, I have decided not to abandon those who have actually read into the story and invested a bit of their time. But, there will be major changes. It will not be episodes. Just one full story. The alternative time lines will not continue. The story will be a 'cut and paste' of the book. It will not have voice acting or music. It will be paid. The price will be under 10USD and no steam keys will be given. But, for those who have asked for a continue, or voiced dismay, they will be gifted by me. It will be a kinetic novel with no choices. It will use STEAM functionality and features, such as Achievements. The book is 500 pages for the Epic core story. As you read you will earn tokens "keys" to unlock scenes not in the book, such as expanded sex scenes, viewpoints, perspectives and locations. The product will use a new steam ID and be separate from…

• The End is here. - 6 June 2022

  ​Good day everyone! I am here today to inform you of the removal of all content I have released on this platform as of July 1, 2022. In July, the surfeit project will have been in development for 6 years. The novel, which this product is based on, was supposed to be released first. But due to political gatekeeping issues it has not been. I decided to gain some interest in my novel series, by doing a visual novel. As an ex-screenwriter, I felt I could do a visual medium of story telling. I was wrong. I tried to hire others to help me develop the project, but the ones who were interested were harassed in many ways. Some were stalked, some lost jobs, while others were fired by their agencies... just for working with me. What was my crime? Well... It wasn't what I did as much as what I am. I'm a middle-class, middle aged, straight, white, male american who believes in a higher power. My per…

• UPDATE LIVE! - 21 June 2021

  Yo, Everyone! Feedback update is now LIVE. START AGAIN is now available on start. No more glitch where it would get stuck and never show itself. It is now a permanent part of the select screen. This skips credits, background of planet and the battle of Tern. UNLOCK all points of change by clicking on Elyssia's necklace. Also, you will be given a choice to reveal solutions to hidden events which require more then one toggle for use with the rewind menu. SAVE SLOTS have been increased by three times. Now 15 instead of 5. Please note: Save states retain the variables which were saved and cannot be used with rewind. You have to go back to the beginning of a story and use skip to see changes. TYPOS! Many typos have been corrected, but not all. My eyes gloss over a lot of them. If you wish to report one, a screenshot will not help. Nothing is copy-paste and each story has it's own text, even…

• MAJOR UPDATE! - 2 June 2021

  Due to the two pieces of detailed feedback I have received since January , an update to the visual novel is coming within a fortnight. (two weeks) Here is what is getting worked on... START AGAIN. Start again is broken. It is an option at the bottom of the select screen as seen in the rewind video tutorial on youtube. It should appear after your first playthough and allow you to skip through credits, story, the battle of Tern and planet background. These unskippable scenes were only supposed to be that way for the first playthrough only. This worked properly in the demo, but got broke somehow. I discovered this major blunder myself. To Fix this issue, START AGAIN option will be static on the select screen. This will allow you to skip the opening credits, overarching story, battle of Tern and planet background. Skipping over the 'encyclopedic exposition' CONTROL. Space bar will be added…

• STILL TO COME! - 11 March 2021

  Yo! Episode 2 is in the works with new features and story presentations. If you have played Episode 1, we would like your thoughts! This helps everyone to enjoy the product more and it always feels good to get some interaction. Additionally, as of march 15, 2021, anyone to leave a specific or detailed review (good or bad) or interact on the community hub, will get their steam name in the ending credits of episode 2 as a special thanks for helping make the next episode better! ( it can't be " this is great" or "this is beyond bad" It's got to be something like... "I hate the rewind thing" or "I want better sex scenes!") As the 10 stories in Episode 2 combine into a single story based on the choices in Episode 2, there will be a video series walking everyone through the different areas of the ballista, where most of episode 2 will take place. Some areas you will see, some you will not. Vi…

• A look ahead and getting more! - 5 February 2021

  Follow the twitter @wildtirki to get insights on upcoming projects as they develop. Give input and vote on design decisions. No Patreon payments are any of that! Available for all who wishes, for free! Check it out. The further you get into the story of The Surfeit, the more things make sense, and the feeling something isn't right will increase. There are unlockable scenes that are not apparent and events that require multiple points of change to be triggered in just the right way. Following the twitter may reveal how to get to these scene...and may event shed light on the exsistance of a cheat to unlock all points of change at once. A cheat already within the game and hiding in plain sight. Thanks for playing the Surfeit. Please leave a review! Thank you and Enjoy! W.B. 'Wild Tirki' Freeborn
