Reality Pen
This game was inspired by "The Pen is Mightier" by qazpllp on the tfgames site.
In this interactive Twine adventure, you play Dave, an ordinary man who's about to move out of his home. While waiting for his wife Vanessa to come home from an afternoon out with her friends, he finds a pen with a strange power, namely that by altering words on a page, he can edit reality itself. Can he get a handle on his new power and handle the consequences of changing the world?
As is, this game represents the first day of Dave having the pen. 6 available endings to the first day exist, 5 good and 1 bad.
If you notice any typos or errors, feel free to let me know and I can fix those ASAFP.
Cover art was done by my wife.
What to expect right now: Breast expansion, PE, mini-gts, regular gts, mind control, excessive cum, ass expansion, themes of dominance/submission, cowgirl transformations, and probably some other stuff too.
What to expect in the future: Harem content, maidification, mythical transformations, etc.
What not to expect: Incest, pregnancy, the player character getting NTR'd.
NOTE: This game is on hiatus. Please do not ask me when the next update will be, or when the hiatus will end. I genuinely do not know. If updates do occur, they will be sporadic and without a set release schedule.

Dude, it's written right in the description.
"NOTE: This game is on hiatus. Please do not ask me when the next update will be, or when the hiatus will end. I genuinely do not know. If updates do occur, they will be sporadic and without a set release schedule."
Does anyone still have the first version of this game, that was just Day One but also had the side bar?
Loving it so far!
Found some mistakes:
Will update if I find more :)
Does anyone know of a browser game similar to this one?
What changed? I can't seem to be getting to the new content
I don't think they updated it yet, probably taking a break
"NOTE: This game is on hiatus. Please do not ask me when the next update will be, or when the hiatus will end. I genuinely do not know. If updates do occur, they will be sporadic and without a set release schedule."
This was added to the description of the project after the "what (not) to expect" section.
Noooo, I was looking forward so much for the next update too :(
Is this game getting abandoned?
I just wanted to say Happy Holidays and I hope your doing well
This game ain't abandoned right?
Are there any images in this or is it just purely text based?
Purely text based as of now, I'm pretty sure
Will we get bimbofication content ?
How do you get the competition path?
There isn't anything written for that path yet.
Will we get FMG/Muscle girl content?
There's currently some minor FMG content in the dominant wife path; if you change the thing she's buying into "Femuscle Instant Steroids" she'll undergo FMG.
If you're not fond of femdom, there's also an option to reverse the relationship dynamic in that path as well.
That particular route will be developed as time goes on.
When do you think you could complete the game/add a new update?
I genuinely don't know. I'd rather not provide an exact date, because I find that whenever I do that, I wind up missing said date by quite a bit. I'll try and get a smaller update out by the end of the year.
So one do you plan on adding a not incest but mental change where the women would be mom,daughter, or slave. Two, would the transformations be like normal anthros or one's based off a franchise. And the game is still currently in my favs
What path do you plan on introducing the harem content?
Not for a while. It would probably start up after Day 3, but I don't know when that will be. Like I said, I don't even know when I'm going to be able to finish this update.
sadly day 2 content is only for sub protag, i played day 1 the opposite of that.
Are there going to be more than two days?
Yes. Eventually.
Are you planning on making more games to expand on Reality Pen's universe? Also do you have a general timeline for the development of the game?
I didn't have any plans to make additional games. I don't really have a timeline, and honestly my schedule is shifting around quite a bit right now, so I'm not able to prioritize the game as much as I had originally wanted.
I plan on continuing the game but currently I don't know when I'll be able to buckle down and write up the rest of this upcoming release.
Are you planning on getting more writers to help out with the game?
Probably not, no.
So when you get done with the submissive and equal wife and other paths,what's the story mode going to be about and will there be settings for it like when you select one of the paths it asks for the wife's height,tits and ect.
It's going to be a more sandbox-like environment with individual side quests, each of which will have specific requirements.
So wait what exactly is the wifedom path? And question is the submissive wife path in the works or is it still made to be after the competitive path?
Wifedom path is where your wife ends up having more power in the relationship. You can get that by making sure that the two of you are wealthy, but she has a job and you're unemployed.
The submissive wife path is gonna be the last thing to be worked on for Day 2. Don't expect it for a while.
Can you give us an update on how things are going. thank you
I wound up taking the last two weeks off due to some issues in my day-to-day work life. I'm going to try and at least get a small-ish update out within the next two weeks. It won't be the full completion of the chapter, but it'll be something in the way of progress.
So if you need any ideas or inspiration, there's https://www.furaffinity.net/ and https://www.writing.com/ and there should be enough good stories,interactives,and art that match the theme here. And I hope you have a nice weekend.
What update about?
I made the game available for download is all. Sorry if you got pinged.
Ok
any news about the new version's download? I think I really need it. Google's translate is useless if I can't download it.
It'll be out by the end of the weekend.
Is there still a planned update somewhere on the pike?
Yeah, it's just coming along slower than I thought it would.
Take your time! Better to have something you can like and enjoy, than to get burnt out.
But in the meantime, what path(s) will the next update follow?
The next update is going to be the first half of day 2 as it follows from the "Dominant Wife" ending of day 1. It'll have the bulk of the story choices, as well as (last I counted) somewhere upwards of 30 possible paths depending on which decisions are made (it may be more accurate to say that there's 2 paths, each with 30 variants, hence why it's taking a little long and has to be split up into 2 sub-releases).
The overall order of releases will be as follows:
1. Day 1 (already done)
2. Day 2, Boytoy Path (already done)
3. Day 2, Wifedom Path (working on it)
4. Day 2, Equals Path (for future)
5. Day 2, Competition path (for future)
6. Day 2, Submissive Wife path (for future, may swap that with the Competition path depending on which is easier to write).
After that, I'll likely need to take some time and set up a more open world for the remainder of the game, as I'm gonna try and move to a more quest-based system than a series of branching storylines. If I were to stick with my current narrative design, it would get out of control REALLY quickly.
I hope you don't end up swapping out the submissive wife path, that's the one I'm most interested in.
By "swapping out" I mean "changing the order in which I write the paths," rather than completely eliminating it.
This game is great so far. Looking forward to day 2!
I would like to have at least some images in the game, but in any case, a great game
Unfortunately, images are unlikely to happen. Writing out the number of possible outcomes takes quite a bit of time to begin with, and I don't have the skills or money needed to get that many images in a reasonable amount of time.
I'm a visual learner
I love your work, how much time till the next update ?
The likely schedule is 1 week, the worst-case scenario schedule is 2 weeks. I was hoping to have it out already, but life got in the way.
I'm more eager for just straight up giant/giantess sizeplay
Call me a weirdo all you want but bad ending seems a stretch to me :P
Haha, fair enough. "Premature good ending" was just a little wordy.
You got an estimated time till each update? Cause I like the game and would love to see more of it.
I don't have a real schedule for this at the moment. I'm likely going to be done with the next update in a week or two. Probably closer to two.
Looking forward to the next update, great opener for a fun game I think
I hope their will be a download button to download the game.
Is it not possible? My analytics are saying that a few people have downloaded it.
I'll see about making it possible to download. Sorry, I'm a bit new to releasing games, so I'll need to check how to make the download process easier.
could you tell me where I can find the download button? Sorry I can't find it (the old version have it and I download it. However, I can't find it now).
I'll put the download up after I fix any bugs for this release; that way people don't wind up downloading a buggy version.
oh my god I absolutely love this! Have been waiting for a game like this for a while! I would like there to be some extra content with some not so sensical things? such as the condom section. Maybe instead of bigger, go smaller like SPH? Also, maybe add some mythological things. Such as a way to somehow make yourself not human? Or to switch body parts? something like that. That would make the game sooooo much better. I love the options that are currently avaliable. Logically who would want smaller (wink) or worse things when they get a magical pen, but still would be fun to see. I get that games like this can drastically grow out of hand. You have a really good game brewing here. There should def be ways to turn yourself into a girl, trans woman, futanari, or something else. I hope you continue developement!
also maybe a debug menu or stat menu? Im not too savvy on how to create those in HTML so take it with a grain of salt lol.
Those are all solid ideas. As you said, this style of game could very easily get out of hand in terms of its scope. As such, as I try to plot out the game, I think I'm going to need to establish a priority list.
My thoughts:
1. There will definitely be a gender-swap option at some point going forward. It's a common enough theme in expansion and MC works that it'd be worthwhile to do.
2. Mythological stuff would be kinda interesting. I could see that as some late-game content; having a holstaur, goo girl, or lamia as part of the cast would be fun. I would need to establish a better base for the game going forward, though, since at the moment I'm doing some revisions of my initial plan.
3. Body-part-swapping or body-swapping could be fun, but depending on the format of the game, it'd be rather hard to do in Twine. Harlowe isn't an object-oriented programming language, from what I understand, so it'd require a bunch of additional variable-juggling. If I were to make the switch to a Python-based system or something similar, I could conceivably do it, but that's a distant goal.
4. I'm gonna be honest, I'm generally into people getting bigger rather than smaller. SPH is gonna be a low priority. Body shrinkage (ie, minigirl/miniguy) is still possible, but I'll need to get a better workflow going for that.
Debug menu is an absolute must, I agree, particularly from a developer-side view of matters. I'll look into how I could set that up in Twine.
I was using the "think about your wife/life/relationship" as a sort of narrative stat menu, but A: I'm kinda struggling making that sidebar mobile-responsive, and B: I do think that having a number-based page would improve matters as well. I'll look into those.
Would some maidification be in the cards, potentially, as well?
Like, turning Vanessa into a maid?
I hadn't actually thought of that, but I certainly think it'd be possible. It probably wouldn't be in the next few updates, though.
No rush, of course! But yeah, turning her into a maid, maybe even a harem of them down the line if you really wanted to go hard into it.
My thoughts:
1. The maidification will probably happen on the femsub route. I think that'll be the fifth update I do, because writing femsub is a slower process for me than writing equal-footing relationships or femdom-tinged ones.
2. There's likely going to be harem mechanics going forward, but I'm gonna need to take some time and work out a structure for the game once I finish the updates for each route. I'm imagining something more centralized with a map and "quests" that one could do; sorta like Corruption of Champions but with non-furries and no combat mechanics.
Good shite so far. Looking forward to more. I will say, as much as love The Pen Is Mightier and Mightier Than The Sword, I definitely recognize why they both stayed short. The more length you add to this, the more variations you'll have to account for. It WILL get exponentially larger as you go on. If you're down for that, though, I'm here to see the results!
Yeah, I'm going to need to prune some options as I go along. We'll see how that goes.
