HTML Paths [R13c] [Stratos]

[7767]

Overview:
Paths is a text-based erotic adventure made in Twine 2, set in a fictional approximation of mythological Earth; in particular, an area greatly resembling ancient Greece. You play as Alexis, a young man who wakes up in unfamiliar surroundings and finds himself thrust into a strange trial overseen by a whimsical god. How far is Alexis willing to go to pass this ordeal, and what will his life look like afterward? Both questions are in your hands.​

Thx

Never seen a Sponsus before. Game looks interesting.
But golly if none of the download links connect to a file can work in either browser I have on hand.

Do REAL PORN and Transformation/Sissi mix well together or smth?
Just curious since those tags come together almost all the time.

There are two legacy game creation communities from before the Patreon age.
One for transformation and one for hypnosis.
There was no money in it at the time, so everyone made games for free out of stuff they found laying around.
Now time has moved on, but these communities persist.

How do you start up the game? I open the html but it won't load. All I get is a blank white screen

Odd to see a game about Ancient Greece, without the Gay tag.

were you able to open the game and play it?

No, tried it in 2 browsers, only thing I can think of is that it might be firefox only. (Even tried a version from their official site.)

Okay, I got word from the Dev, seems it got corrupted.
Here's a version that works.

Apparently the file was corrupted or something and didn't work. Created a fresh copy and updated all the download links and confirmed they all work now.

 

[Obscure]

Okay so the 844k file works just fine.
The game is very oldschool and Zork. Not sure it is possible to escape the prologue dungeon / character creator. Not without drawing a map anyway.

 

[StratosDBG]

This release only consists of the first floor of the temple, it should give you a heads up when you reach the room that will eventually lead to the second floor. I hadn't anticipated navigation would be a problem, I could probably whip up a basic floor map and stick it as an item somewhere. It'll have to wait an update though, priority one is getting all the placeholder female scenes done.

thanks mate! Works now!

 

[Rihan Majid]

Far too much text and no pictures! Gets boring!

 

[Minipax84]

It's very well written, and I enjoy that it's a game that will seem to focus decision-making rather than the usual CoC grind. So far my only gripe is that it would be really nice with some kind of map.

I'd recommend putting up in the top description something saying that Transformation is optional/avoidable. Many people will come here and automatically think the game is just about transformation/sissification otherwise.

 

[StratosDBG]

Hmmm, if multiple people are having trouble with navigating, I might mock up a really rough temporary map today and do a micro update today or tomorrow. My gimp skills are rusty as heck, but I can probably come up with something that'll help, even if it isn't pretty.

Also added a blurb to the dev's note that all content in the game is optional. I'm specifically including a virgin/minimal sex path just to ensure that's possible. Player agency is important to me, and this is going to have a wide range of content, some of which isn't going to be some people's thing.

Edit: Alright, managed to work up a map and get it in the game. You can find it in one of the early rooms.

I'll count this as a mini update to Release 1.1. Links updated.

I enjoy this game for having choices that are fleshed out, I particularly like how you can catch certain things in the text if you notice them. However I was just wondering if it was possible to "convert" characters without being aggressive.

 

[StratosDBG]

Some (D) choices will kind of do that for some characters, but that's really more just seducing them, I haven't included any "nice" way to "convert" any of the current characters on the (C) route. Later on, once Alexis starts to figure out what it is that's letting him do that and how to use it more... subtly, it will definitely be an option for at least one encounter I already have in mind, but in the early game, he's running on raw instinct for all the (C) options for characters.

Edit: Although I will add, a female Alexis will probably be a bit less aggressive and a bit more seductive on her (C) options when I start in on those.
