Hey! Long time no see. I don't have much to say except: I'm fine! Life has been well and it has slowed down a bit.

And I've been working on an Emberwood rewrite!

Yes, I kind of got a renewed love for Emberwood, but with time, I feel like I could do more. I won't give a set date as to when Emberwood will get an update, but I do want people to know that I've been chipping away at it. I've learned some new coding tricks and have been dusting off the demo. I hope the revamped Emberwood will be much better and of higher quality. I'll still remain a bit quiet, but just wanted to let you guys know that Emberwood related things are in the works!

i just want you to know that my favorite character is andrei. i request bonding time and them being dramatic together. thank you.

bonding time and being dramatic request received!

kinda late to the party byt just replayed the demo up to the new chapter and im cackling because my MC, Edan, has fuckin passed out THREE TIMES because they're an idiot- like bestie pls stop. be smarter. (i say as i click the dumbass reckless choices-)

MC truly goes through the ringer in Emberwood lol!

hellooooo ♥️ is it possible when andrei asks the mc who they felt closes with we can genuinely pick someone we think mc is close with buddy buddy kinda thing instead of aiming to romance?

Hmmm the option "I think I would get along with them best" is intended to be the buddy buddy thing. I wouldn't force you guys to choose a romance option. Is it not showing up for you? I'll check it out!

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that your bio still says chapter 2: TBD in case you wanted to change that now that it’s been released

Also I LOVED CHAPTER TWO IT WAS SO FUN AND COOL and it was way longer than I’d expected thank you for all the work you do

Thank you!! I'll change that now!

AND THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU'RE SO KIND im glad people are enjoying it, I was very nervous about releasing it 😭 <333

Not sure if this has been asked but is MC the strongest in the Dufner house regardless of what power we pick? Since I know Dani has literal ELEMENTAL powers

Dani is actually the strongest. MC is capable of becoming the strongest with effort!

Perry kinda reminds me of Steve from stranger things 😭

aka the mom friend 😭

My MC didn’t want to touch it. I made him.  No sorry bro. It was for greater good. Alex is not impressed. some really good stuff from Emberwood IF by @emberwood-if

Writing you as a ghost - to tell you that the new chapter was really enjoyable - because Andrei's responses to MC calling N and Perry "cute" killed me.

thank you so much! and omg lololol he's funny, isn't he? Andrei is always the most fun to write.

Dani's forest scene im looking at u👁️👁️

I hope some people chose not to do the *thing* just because Dani's scene has a pretty unique difference compared to the others hehe

i just need you to understand that i'm hardcore crushing on F and E and i'm at a loss as what to do.

I love that they're both sort of opposites too!

Flirt with both of them and then wait for the inevitable moment you have to break one of their hearts upon lock-in hehehe >>

hi I see the messages about minor errors and such Im not ignoring im just too busy to code as of right now, as long as the demo works from beginning to end :)

if there is a *game breaking* bug then I'd like to know asap so I can fix that as soon as possible

just played the new update

what a trio 😭

N my beloved 💖 it was such a treat to meet them this update!!!

im glad you liked them!!! They kind of went under the radar due to their personality but I'm glad people are resonating with N <3

andrei after a minor inconvenience:

literally that man is dramatic as hell 😭

Hello! Long time no see! I haven't been active in a meaningful way since early January. A lot of Not-So-Good things have happened (as well as good things) in my life and Emberwood kind of got lost in the mess.

I opened up the chapter 2 file and reread it and decided to just put it out. It's done, and it works, but it can be better so I'll consider it an alpha chapter. My beta testers offered great, great comments and corrections and critiques and so I have made the decision to go back and rewrite and update once I'm more on top of things. I just wanted to share it with you guys because Chapter 2 has been collecting dust in my files a while now and I don't see why I wouldn't post it.

so here it is!

DEMO (PROLOGUE + CHAPTER1 + CHAPTER2// 106,261K words)

I *highly* advise rereading from the beginning for a refresher (it's been a while.)(it might break anyway.) Also, I would say ignore the stats and the stat page as I have plans to overhaul that. There's probably some errors and stuff but there shouldn't be any game breaking errors (aka you should be able to play the entire demo.)

Just to reiterate: Chapter 2 will eventually get overhauled and updated.

If there are any errors, I would rather get reports at [email protected] since I am not on Tumblr much.

Thank you for your patience, your understanding, your enthusiasm and everything else!

this new update just makes me love perry even more hahah

Sweet, sweet Perry. I feel bad for what I'm going to do to him.
