re: parallax request
@zebratron2084 @Soreth It's a long time since November, 2022, but I'm still interested in Parallax.
When I panic dumped most of my Patreons, I only kept two and one is for that dragon near you.
This particular post here, this sounds great, even better than what I was already expecting from Parallax.
I recall the original idea was two groups of 'good people doing good' who are culturally distant and conflict and see eachother as The Baddies but aren't, and that's still cool
re: parallax request
@relee @Soreth Thank you so much for the support, hun, it means a lot to me! And yeah, it's still definitely going to be that theme of "two camps of well-intentioned people getting stuck deeper in a conflict neither really wanted."
The hope is to push the weirdness level DRAMATICALLY between chapters. One of our major goals is to simulate that feeling of "it's 1989 and you're home from school so you can see all the syndicated anime cartoons on at 3 pm but they play them out of order and you haven't seen an episode of this in years anyhow and WAIT A SECOND WASN'T SHE ON THE OTHER SIDE LAST TIME? AND WHEN DID HE BECOME A ROBOT?!?"
re: parallax request
@zebratron2084 @Soreth Both cultures seem really interesting so I hope you go into them more, along with any they visit. <3
I guess I might not get that if you're TRYING to be confusing. XD
I'm fond of all the stuff you two make. 5 Glasses of Absinthe and Decrypting Rita are both firmly up my alley. Anything new would likely be too. Not just the themes, but the storytelling style too.
re: parallax request
@Soreth I mean, if Chapter 2-3 ever actually happens, it's gonna be a corker. The plan is basically "1950s alien invasion and conversion, but totally stripped of the Cold War paranoia and replaced with 'um... what if they're still perfectly nice guys and this was a big misunderstanding and the Pod People are still Actual Fucking Characters we care about?'"
