METROPARASITE, A SCIENCE-FICTION NOVEL BY ME IS FREE FOR ALL ON ITCH!

itch.io

Metroparasite by Avagarde

Paperback Sci-fi about Mech-Pilots Vs. Nature

An adventure novel inspired by golden age sci-fi and farcical fantasy full of big robots and snarky women contending with the nature of technology and their world.

Inspired by the world of Kernel, Metroparasite is a project I started working on almost two years ago and the first of a series, the second of which is already nearing completion!

the "came back wrong" trope except like... they didnt. like this mad scientists wife died, and so he studied necromancy, brought her back, and she came back and it all worked. like she came back exactly the same as she was before with literally no difference. but the scientist guy is like "oh no... what have i done.... shes Different now!!!! she came back Wrong!!!!" and shes just like. chilling. reading a book. cooking dinner. shes just so so normal but in the guys mind hes like "oh shes soooo weird" but shes just normal

Some I Was a Teenage Exocolonist thoughts now that I've had time to process my first run:

I love that not only are you not expected to achieve a perfect run on your first playthru, it's not even possible. There are consequences for things like not going to school (mostly in the form of missed opportunities) but no one is going to grab you by the scruff and force you to do it. You're truly allowed to just be a kid living your life which of course will include making mistakes. But this message that you can come back from anything, that there's no such thing as a life ruining choice, that it's ok to not be perfect or perfectly good, that's so fucking refreshing to see in a video game. And the replacement of a good vs bad morality system with a "respect for authority" meter is just *chefs kiss* that combined with the empathy stat should be the standard for any kind of game like this, it's so genius.

Like I started my second run last night and there are a couple things I'm intentionally going to do better this time (being more efficient with gifts and paying better attention to the fetch quests) but this is the first time playing a game where I've ever felt truly comfortable with not getting everything right, or even most things. Like I've just been randomly picking an activity every month (literally rolling a d6) and bc of that my character basically never goes to class. I've already decided next run I'm going to dedicate at least one month every season to school but I don't feel pressured to restart this one like it truly feels ok and part of the intended experience to fuck up and do better next time and that's so fucking cool

Sherlock Holmes modern adaptation but the main characters (Sherlock, Watson, Mrs. Hudson, Irene Adler, and maybe even Lestrade) are all vampires and they’ve just been doing their thing since the time period of the original books

Irene gets to be from New Jersey like she is in canon and she’ll occasionally show up and help Sherlock with a case but they don’t ever date or hook up or anything
