Really happy to see some people here enjoying the game!
And, yeah, TADS is pretty damn old-school, but from what I know, there's really nothing newer/better for making this type of game. Isn't there something nice about using your imagination instead of being pigeonholed by someone else's art that may or may not be quite to your taste? (I know I'm in the extreme minority here, but it's nice to see that at least I'm not the very last person around who likes erotic text adventures, lol.)

Isn't Twine is basically what is used for this nowadays?Really happy to see some people here enjoying the game!

Also, in my opinion QSP is a much better system.

Yeah, I think Twine is the main platform for text-based games these days. It's not the same kind of game as old-school "Interactive Fiction," though (picking from a series of lists of options vs. freely exploring and interacting with the game world via a command parser). I've played some Twine games that are very fun, but the player experience is not all that similar to the likes of TADS.
I've never played a QSP game before, but from what I can see it's along the same lines as Twine.

A new TADS game? Makes me miss the old Goblin Boy games (if I remember the Dev's name correctly)...

What was the deal with the grappling hook and the notes signed
? I feel like I should recognize those initials but I'm drawing a total blank.

As someone who really got into adult games through adrift and tads, this was quite enjoyable and I look forward to more.

TADS - now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I got started back in the AIF days, finding games on usenet and making my own, some of which I actually shared with others under pen names I've probably forgotten. I remember there being a few different TADS code sex libraries floating around, and even made one myself, though I never shared it and it's now lost to the harddrives of history.
I'm almost tempted to make a TADS game myself - I do like the world simulation stuff you could pull off with parser-based interactive fiction - but honestly I've got a big VN project to work on, and it wouldn't really find the audience needed to justify teaching myself everything all over again.

Will Chapter 2 be added to the chapter 1 executable, or will it be a separate executable? (I suspect the former.)

It'll be separate executable. Ch. 2 takes place some time after Ch. 1 and in a whole different place (namely, the Xavier Institute).
Ah, a tougher question. Current progress is slow but steady. At this rate it couldn't possibly be sooner than New Year's.
(And to think that I've already plotted several chapters after that even.... Oh, boy. Definitely don't be getting your hopes up for those ever materializing! )You don't have permission to view the spoiler content.

I look forward to the next installment.
Whenever it finally arrives.

Hello to whoever out there is watching this thread!
It's been a while, but I've finally finished my XXX-Men, Ch. 2 -- Fast Times at the Xavier Institute. It's about double the size of the first chapter but a lot less linear, and it also contains a bunch of fun text-based minigames. Overall, I'm really happy with how it came out. Before I release the game fully, I'd like to have a few people playtest it to help me root out bugs (and give their other feedback, of course).
If you're interested, please let me know and I'll send you the game. Even if you can only provide a little bit of time and feedback, it will be very, very appreciated! Big thanks in advance!!!
