"Tooth" is now officially in hiatus + Major changes ahead


Letting you guys know that I officially am not working on it right now. Should be obvious since I haven't updated in 3 months. But I wanted to officially say that. I don't want anyone to keep asking when the next update is or wait for it. Because it's not coming for a while. For the people that's not in the discord server, I hate Tooth. I hate working on it, I hate everything about it. I haven't enjoyed working on it in 2 years. I've spent so long on this and yet I haven't even gotten to the main storyline yet. It's not what I set out to make. And to change it into what I want it to be, it's going to take a lot of time and energy.  Something I can't spare right now. I'm in the middle of moving and now that I'm out of highschool, I need to worry about finding a job.  This doesn't mean that I'm quitting, in fact I plan to start picking back up once I move. Maybe actually changing this shity story will give me more enthusiasm to keep working. Worse comes to worst, I'll just cut out all the other routes besides Owen and maybe Seth and make it a shorter VN. But I don't think that will be necessary. Although I want to, that'd be scraping a lot of content. If I end up doing something like that, I will give warning though. For now, I will take away the ability to download Tooth.


But anyways, I'm gonna tell you what's going to be changed. I don't know how much is spoilers, because the people on the discord server already know most of this. But spoilers ahead anyways. 

What's going to be changed-


______- S P O I L E R S - ______

- The whole magic system will be removed. It doesn't add anything to the plot and its really confusing and stupid. Unironically most of the "magic teaching scenes" I added in just to meet my 15k word quota for that day. So in simpler terms, magic is filler to the story. Besides on Seth's route. Since that's his whole backstory. It also means Seth won't be able to  sacrifice himself when the routes die at the end of the good ending, but whatever.

- Tooth is being renamed too "One True Love".  Since there's no magic, theres no demons, and the tooth necklace wouldn't mean that much. Also I can make it into a twist. You'll have to play the whole game to figure that out :). No, it's not going to be some mushy rom com I promise. Just trust me on this. Better name then Tooth lmao

-I will be cutting Dorian from the game. No one really liked him, and his whole character background was kind of a duplicate of Andrew. Shitty dad type beat. I do think he would have a pretty good death scene but it's whatever. Just means I need to rework the others to make them better.

- Seth will be a rowdy teen that got kicked out of his house for being gay. Honestly wont have an effect on him too much. The only vital thing that will change, is that he won't be the one that turned Pn into a human. But I can make another twist or some shit. Just some slight character tweaks and some clothes changes. I'd love to make a bastard douche bag out of him. 

- Jake won't be a sorcerer. Didn't add anything to the plot anyways.

- Pn will be more of a love sick puppy then before. Instead of being depressed about being human, he'll be depressed because he doesn't have anyone to call his own. It's gonna piss me off trying to write a freak like him but I'll do it. It'll serve the plot and the vn's message.

-Max will be more hostile and bitchy to Seth and Pn. Giving Pn more of a drive to run away after graduation with Seth.

- Each of the character's new art will prob be different too. Like I.e I'm removing Andrew's frohawk and giving him a normal mohawk. 

- Removing the fight scenes/shorting them because they are cringe

----------------------------------------------------

Since I'm removing Dorian, I don't see any harm in leaking his whole story. His father is cheating on mother with their maid and he pays his son to not tell his mother. Since the maid's bedroom is next to his, he can hear them going at it all the time. His mother left his dad to marry his step dad, since he was rich. His real dad was a genuine kind man, but was poor. They both piss him off all the time. And since he can't talk back to his father he ends up taking his anger out at people at school. Dorian gives most of the money that his step dad gives him to his real father. Eh kinda week to me, but the death scene would be interesting at least. At both the good and bad endings, Dorian's creepy Step father would rape you while Dorian's out. When he comes back he shoots his father in his back, shooting you as well. The difference between the good and the bad endings would be if Seth used a blood sacrifice to make sure the bullet missed you or something.


As far as the changes go, that's only what I've came up with now. May be more changes in a bit. If you wanna see those changes, and if you have more questions (realistically I prob wont update for a long long while so) then you can join the fucking discord already. Stop asking me. I know you have a discord, everyone has a discord. 10 chances to 1 I've already answered your question already


adios

I am so sorry that this is happening to you blue. I am not going to lie I have loved what you made with tooth so far. But I am sorry this isn't making you happy anymore. I look forward to what tooth or the new game/title will be. I look forward to what will happen in the future for you and your games. 

Thank you and tbh it never made me happy. Hopefully once I get moved in I can start up a bit more

I look forward to see what happens next Blue I can't wait!!!!

Thanks hehe

Yeah no problem Blue big hugs

I personally never really liked/was attracted to any other characters besides Seth. I'll just say you don't have to write a romance if it's not your thing, you could publish short stories on here or just make something purely horny, no romance needed. If some people fall off your project because they wanted romance and you gave them smut, that's their problem. I'm sure you'll find that a lot of people just wanna get to the sexy furry dick or ass or what have you. 

While Max being kinda shitty would make me a bit sad since he was a kind (if a little bit bland) supporting character, I respect your decision to use it to drive the plot. In the end just do what makes you feel artistically fulfilled and the people who want what you're serving will find you. Hang in there.

Thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately I need to use romance to make the story's message works. The whole point of it is the message

That's understandable. Just please do your best to make yourself happy first and foremost!

Thank you, I will surely try lol :)

Good luck and i don't care about other routes other that Seth So i am fine with it

i see nice

No, I love writing erotica. I do it in my free time when I'm stressed. This isn't erotica. Its a long, mushy romance with a subpar story. And as an aromantic it just annoying to write about something you don't care about.  I've been forcing myself to write it from day 1 lol.   And yeah, pretty much planning to take a long break before I get back to writing, I still have to get settled in and I still have plenty of sprites to make.

Thank you, and I'm glad you thought it was funny lol

Good luck dude, Im sure youll join the workforce soon :P and dont worry about the VN. Its your game and you can change it how you want, cant wait for future content.

Heh thanks, and I'm glad. Hope you'll like it :)

Good luck with everything going forward! I've always thought this VN had a lot of promise so you taking the time to trim the excess sounds like a good thing. 

It sucks that you didn't enjoy working on this project but I think that's something that will always happen if things aren't panning out the way you wanted it to. Take your time and rewrite this in a way that YOU are satisfied. I understand that as a creator, the audience is important but your first priority should be to be satisfied with your creation. We will be waiting for your return!

Thanks man, and I don't intend on stoping until its something I can say I'm proud of :). Wish you luck and hope you'll like it

Eso es todo carnal justo ayer me tope contigo entre las personas que sigo y me acordé de tooth y justo pensé lo mismo xd, que la historia ya valía pa caca y que sería mejor si renovarán la van solo que se me hizo gacho decirlo Hasi nomás xd, neta que bueno porque me encantaría ver cómo se desarrolla la novela visual ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ

thank you

this is basically a full reboot of the entire game's premise, everything.

while of course I do love this game, I totally understand man. like after a while what you're once being passionate about just becomes an absolute chore to do. better to dump it and start over yea since you no longer have fun developing it. imo take a break of game development for like at least a year or so and come back to it if you like, maybe with fresh perspective. it might clear your head for more ideas of this reboot. super glad i downloaded the game before this, i will cherish "Tooth" last update, imma cloud save this bitch haha <3

also, please I beg of you to keep Owen's current artwork sprites for your new game, they're waaay too good to be wasted :D 

(1 edit) (+2)

Heh aww thanks. I promise I'll keep the Owen sprites. It won't be that changed really. Just Seth's route really. Everything else is pretty much the same. The message behind the game is the same, just now there wont be so much filler and confusing twists. It's always been about loving yourself instead of depending on others to do it for you. Not all this magic and stuff. It's why I started Tooth in the first place. To rival all the other visual novels glorifying unhealthy relationships and encouraging love addiction. I just didn't know how to show it. I think with this updated story I can finally say what I need to say. And I can't wait to finally finish it

I might just leak like a zip file of everything that I'm scraping along with another copy of the last update. There's a lot of stuff that never got used. I think like 27 images on Dorian never even got put into code lmao.

Also I'm glad to see you're still here. I thought you'd be bored by now. My very first follower, still here. That's awesome. Thank you
