Scarlet Hollow News

Hey folks! Quite a few exciting things in the works lately — we're so happy to finally share them here:

1. Hidden relationship values removed in favor of a visible + hearts - hearts system.
   
2. Tabitha added as a romance option.
   
3. You can now select five traits at character creation. To balance this out, we've also increased our trait pool by adding another FIVE, which all have secret conditions to unlock. Will you master the Kamehameha wave? Or maybe you'll wear a fursuit to your aunt's funeral. The possibilities are endless.
   
4. New minigames! Whenever Wayne shows up, the game switches from visual novel mode to Hyper Realism First Person mode — you'll have to find a good hiding spot before he gets ya!
   
5. Added 253
6. bad* endings! Better be careful about what choices you make, because some of them are bad and they'll make you start the whole game over!
   
7. You've asked for voice acting, and we've heard you! Added Ditchy the Ditchling as a new talking companion. Enjoy over 5,000 lines of fully voiced commentary.
   
8. Added a new story branch, where you sit in the estate and do nothing all week.
   
9. Added a difficulty slider at character creation to determine how mean Tabitha is to you. Do you want the nicest cousin in the world, or, do you want her to be even MEANER? It is up to you.
   

Hey everyone!

Popping in with a quick update on how the Fan Art competition is going — we've already smashed through our second goal! We've been absolutely blown away by the response, and have loved all of the art, memes, music, and fanfic we've been seeing! If you want to make sure you're seeing all of the best Scarlet Hollow fan content, make sure you're:

• Following us on Twitter
  
• A member of our Discord
• Subscribed to /r/scarlethollow

To celebrate hitting our 25 entry goal, we'll be doing an art request livestream this Thursday at 5pm Eastern on our twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/black_tabby_games

We'll also be simulcasting to Steam (and maybe youtube!) if that's easier for you, but the bulk of our chat is probably going to be on Twitch, so if you've gotta pick one, that's probably the place to be.

We'll be taking art requests for:

1. Monsters, ghosts, and ghouls!
   
2. Anything Scarlet Hollow related (within reason)
   

Can't wait to see you there!

Fixed some broken logic in the library in episode 2 for players who skipped sybil's house in episode 1, but talked to her about wayne before the library

We've already blown past our first submission goal for the fan art competition, so it's time for the promised Q&A with our cast of characters. It'll take place on our Twitter (@blacktabbygames) today, starting at 4pm Eastern, and you can start submitting questions NOW through our CuriousCat.

Hope to see you there!
