 So grab yer lube and come on in!  :D
-===== Current Projects =====
+===== Discord Server =====
-**//Cassidy Chase and the Curse of Teiresias//** (no public release yet) - This is a... gender-bending southern gothic murder mystery slow-transformation game, written with TweeGo (aka Twine).  Say that five times fast!
+This website is mostly just a place to keep documentation and downloads.
-**//The Bitch Switch!//** (no public release yet) - A typical body swap story, also written with TweeGo (aka Twine).  Our runty nerdy young adult protagonist switches bodies with his intolerable mean-girl twin sister.  Hijinks ensue.
+There is a Discord server, which is far more active, where test releases are made and development logs are kept.
-FIXME I've merged LibEcho and LibTF (into just LibEcho), modularized it, and greatly improved the build system (it no longer requires Eclipse for builds, but simply uses npm, so you can build it yourself on the commandline if you have nodejs installed).  The "code" links will take you to the current code, but I haven't yet updated the documentation.  I'm planning to get JSDoc up and running, and to move away from the wiki documentation (at least for the JS API docs).
+[[https://discord.gg/H4MskX9|Click here to join the Discord server.]]  Hope to see you there!  :D
-**//LibTF//** [[libtf:documentation:start|(documentation)]] [[http://svn.echohollow.net/libecho/|(code)]] (no stable release yet) - This is the flagship library, containing all of the slow-transformation simulation code from //Cassidy Chase//, along with the Inventory and Wardrobe systems.  There is a problem wherein many TF game authors write their simulation code, but then burn out and abandon their games without ever writing much story content.  It is my hope that this library will help eliminate that.
+-----
-**//LibEcho//** [[http://svn.echohollow.net/libecho/|(code)]] (no stable release yet, but perfectly usable) - A very small, simple Twine macro library.  These little utility macros are useful to me, so I figure they might be useful for others as well.
+===== Active Projects =====
-===== Development Logs / Patreon =====
+**//[[libecho:start|SmutBook]]//** (development/unstable, but somewhat usable) - An open source Twee/Twine library containing all of the mechanical parts of my games.  Requires ES6.  Use this to build your own stories, without reinventing the wheel.
-FIXME Since The Bitch Switch isn't Patreon-safe, I am no longer funding it with Patreon and will to have to do something different vis-a-vis development logs.  This is a shame, as Patreon is awfully handy for that sort of thing.  I guess I'll post dev logs here, even though nobody will read them.  I was thinking about using a tfgamesite forum thread for that, too, but I don't think it would be very good, having the logs interleaved with comments and stuff like you get with a forum thread, hrm.
+===== Inactive Projects =====
-You can follow the [[https://www.patreon.com/echohollow/posts?tag=devlog|Development Logs]] on [[https://www.patreon.com/echohollow|my Patreon page]].  You don't have to subscribe or donate, just follow me there if you want the weekly dev log (and whatever other random bloggy stuff).
+**//[[thebitchswitch:start|The Bitch Switch!]]//** - A typical body swap story, also written with TweeGo (aka Twine).  Our runty nerdy young adult protagonist switches bodies with his intolerable mean-girl twin sister.  Hijinks ensue.
-Of course, if you want to be a Patreon supporter, that's great too.  But I don't think it would be appropriate for me to shill for that at the current level of completeness (or lack thereof lol).
+Sorry about the inactivity on TBS, folks.  I don't really have a good excuse.  Part of it is the scope being too large for the amount of free time I have these days after some life changes.  But another significant part of it, if I am honest, is a lack of interest.  It is hard to stay focused on a long term project like this one when I don't have time to sit down and work on it on a regular schedule.
-===== Other Stuff =====
+I think I need to design some smaller projects that are more manageable given my current constraints, just to keep my head in the game.  You'll hear about them when/if I feel like there's something worth releasing.  In the meantime, Smutbook (the mechanics library that I have been developing alongside the game) is still open source and the commit logs are spammed to the discord channel, so you may be able to infer something about progress (or lack thereof) from there.
-//[[http://svn.echohollow.net/public/libsugarscore-unstable/|Monkey-Patch Underscore Garbage for Sugarcube]]// - Obsolete, do not use.
+Most of all, please don't be afraid to nag me about this game or anything else.  Knowing that someone out there is actually interested in my garbage is the single greatest motivator there is.
+**//[[kinkypr0ntutorial:start|How to Make Kinky Pr0n Games with Twine]]//** - A series of video tutorials aimed at helping you learn to create your own works of adult interactive fiction.
+**//Cassidy Chase and the Curse of Teiresias//** (inactive pending further LibEcho development) - This is a... gender-bending southern gothic murder mystery slow-transformation game, written with TweeGo (aka Twine).  Say that five times fast!
+**//Trapocalypse//** (future project, once something else is more complete) - In the post-apocalypse, mutations from radiation exposure can cause people to become more than what they seem...
+**//Victoria's Rose//** (future project, once something else is more complete) - In the distant future, the luxury space-liner "HMS Victoria's Rose" down-jumps into a mine field laid by radical collectivist partisans.  Her jump-drive and communications damaged, she mis-jumps to an uninhabited sector of space, then begins the slow journey home at sublight-speed, the two remaining survivors trapped in cryosleep in a malfunctioned escape pod.  What changes will happen to our hero(ine), and society, during their 1000-year sleep?  And what malicious force will they discover in control of the ship when they awaken?

+===== Development Logs =====
+Development logs are currently all on [[https://discord.gg/H4MskX9|Discord]], although I do intend to mirror them here when I get around to it.
+You can also tune into all the commit messages there, if you want up-to-the-minute development status messages.
+===== SubscribeStar =====
+If you want to be a SubscribeStar supporter, that's great.  But I don't think it would be appropriate for me to shill for that at the current level of completeness (or lack thereof lol).
