Made Marion News

[p]It's with my sincerest apologies that I need to delay John's route for a week. I try not to announce any solid dates unless I'm certain I can complete the needed tasks by that date, but this time my chronic illness had things to say about the amount of work I'd chosen to do.[/p][p]I had a flare-up that took me out for Weds-Thu (I basically end up narcoleptic when Long Covid has things to say), and I'll need to spread the remaining tasks out over a longer period of time to avoid a repeat. I'm so sorry that we needed to reschedule and I hope you'll all still be happy to join us for John's release on December 7.[/p][p]Thank you for your understanding.[/p]

[p]We promised John's route would be released in November and we're making it... barely! Thanks as always for your patience. We're proud to announce that John will be releasing on November 30. Testing is going well and we only need to add the final Chapter 4s (as every route has two different Chapter 4s depending on your choices) into the engine.[/p][p][/p][p]Barring technical issues, the route will release on November 30 before Steam's daily refresh, which is 10am Pacific time.[/p][p][/p][p]Hope to see you all in a week![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[p]Join Made Marion and our romance visual novel friends at the Fall in Love Festival, Sept. 24-Oct. 1. We have our 15% Early Access festival discount on! There are tons of great games in the fest, so go check it out.[/p][p]We are also celebrating the upcoming release of John's route this November! The exact release date will be announced closer to the drop. We know many of you are excited to romance our gentle giant, and are working hard to ensure he's all you've been hoping for.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]

Made Marion is proud to be created by a team of gender-marginalized developers and artists, aimed at gender-marginalized readers. The annual Women's Day Sale is a great way to celebrate!

We're proud of our protagonist Marion and the other gender-marginalized characters in our game who exist because theirs are stories that we wanted to tell. As a micro-indie dev, we have the freedom to make the game we want to make, and we're proud to be creating a sex-positive story for adult readers featuring a female protagonist.

Come check us out along with all sorts of other nifty games by women and gender-marginalized developers.

The Storyteller's Festival is a special treat for Made Marion every year, as we love narrative-heavy gaming and are proud to have been a part of this fantastic event for three years now.

This year, Made Marion Early Access will be on sale for 15% off for the length of the festival. We will also be streaming a preview video of our next route to release, Little John, on or before February 18.

After two love interests who could prove difficult to wrangle, will gentle giant John be a balm to Marion's heart, or will he come with his own challenges? (You know he will, we'd hardly be a story if everything was easy!) We hope you'll come check out all the great narrative games in the Storyteller's Festival and will keep an eye out for our video tomorrow!
