One month left until Scarlet Hollow Episode 5's release.

Over 250,000 words of new, intricately branching narrative to explore.

The consequences of your actions are coming home to roost.

Some bonds strengthen, and others shatter.

You don't know what's coming.

We had the pleasure of playing Station to Station early and it is easily in my top 5 ~of all time~

Stunningly emotive and delicate storytelling that pushes video games as a narrative artform to new heights.
Perfect Tides: Station to Station has been nominated for two IGF awards:

-Excellence in Narrative
-Seumas McNally Grand Prize

This is such a tremendous honor, and what a nice hurrah as and the team and the playtesters and I race towards the finish line.

None of you have ever wanted to treat me like a human being, have you? I'm apparently just a piñata stuffed full of cash, and you're here to beat it out of me!

Y'all. I bought this game a week ago. I have put in over *53 hours*. For an episodic thing where each chapter takes about 1h to 1h30m, and which so far 4 of 7 has been released. I've always been a fan of narrative choice games but I've never seen anything like this. Truly phenomenal.

The last two days of Scarlet Hollow will be a SINGLE release, so Episode 5 is the last stop before THE END OF DA LINE
Wait, penultimate? Weren't there going to be 7? Or is the last update going to include both?

Seeing that #scarlethollow episode 5 will be the penultimate episode makes me excited but also

That really means that this episode is the last chance to hop on while ppl don't know the conclusion yet

Everyone who's into mystery with family drama rly gotta get in on that like... Now.
