Historia – Chapter 1 – Released!

For those of you that don't care to read self-congratulatory posts, here is the link. Enjoy! Hi all, and thanks for playing with the Blog Puzzle. In the (likely) case that it is still unsolved at this point, then please head on over to the Discord to join in the discussion. The choice to make...

"So tell me again about the dead cat box." Max gets like this some times. We were supposed to be watching a movie - blowing off steam. But it seems like he's on one of his usual missions. A mission to piss me off. This time though, I'm in no mood to play along. "Schrodinger's...

Chapter 2 – Released

For those that just want the link without me blithering on for half an hour or so, here you go: https://lucid-a96.itch.io/historia-2 I think the adage "Better late than never" applies here. I had originally hoped to have had the chapters of Historia released each Winter Comiket, but Corona makes fools of us all... Seriously though,...

We’re going to be at Komiket this Winter

I would forgive every one of you if you thought that I had given up on blogging, and you'd kind of be correct. Everyone has processed the last couple of years in different ways. Thankfully, I personally haven't lost anyone in this period, but I have a few friends that have; some due to Covid,...

December 2020 Update

It's been almost a year since Chapter 1 came out, and I'd like to thank everyone for the response that we've had so far.  We're busily working on Chapter2. I'm not really a fan of spoilers so I have deliberately been avoiding talking too much about it, but I'm hoping that you'll forgive me when...

Patreon Active!

Since we decided to make Historia pay-what-you-want due to Covid, we've thought that we should open a Pateron for those people who are wanting to help support us.   It takes about a year to make a chapter of Historia, and the additional stresses of Covid-19 have made some things slower, and others faster. We're...

Blog Puzzle 1: Solution (Beware Spoilers)

I've been interested in cryptography puzzles since I was a kid. One of the first books I was given was "The Eleventh Hour" by Grahame Base, which is a great kid's book but also contains a lot of puzzles. If I'm honest, I don't think 5-year-old me solved all of them, but it at least...

Blog Puzzle 1 has been solved

Just in case anyone was doubting the veracity of anyone's claims, I can confirm that today the first Blog Puzzle has been solved. Insert appropriate celebration GIF here. The winners are Altair and AlexCheese, and they have decided to split the Grand Prize of $100. They'll also be getting early access to future Historia chapters,...
