FANTASY CASCADE- Episode 1
A downloadable game
a twine game about a tired, closeted office worker's struggles with sexuality + lucid nightmares, and the first in the Fantasy Cascade episodic series. it takes place in the world of Morbit, which you don't need any information on to experience this twine- but for those interested, you can explore our forums (18+) and wiki more here.
you can get the second episode here!
wilson is a "concept", a species that physically reflects their inner selves as they grow- unfortunately for him, he's been saddled with tears as a motif, which doesn't help when you're in the closet, in a shitty straight relationship, and dealing with horrible nightmares that just won't let you rest. episode 1: overspill focuses on his introduction, his place in the world, and how he gets through the day.
overspill is 85 passages long and contains over 50 accompanying illustrations, along with a 5 song backing soundtrack by Heike (available for purchase at a later date).
this project is rated mature, and is not for readers under 18 years of age. by buying, downloading and reading this project, you are agreeing that you are 18+, and that you are prepared for the content within. please stay safe, and stop reading if you feel like you need a break or if you need to stop entirely.
this episode contains verbal and physical abuse, implications of child death, death in general, self harm, suggestive discussions and imagery, NSFW implications, workplace sexual harassment, peril relating to NSFW/suggestive situations, body horror, exploration/denial of sexuality, and choking. none of this content is intended to be exploitative, harmful, or for shock value, and exist to help tell a story about trauma and recovery from an author who has explicit experiences with the vast majority of these topics. other heavy content topics have been confirmed to show up in subsequent episodes, and may intensify in severity as the twines are released- all will be warned for, but tread carefully.
NOTE: do not play this twine from the itch.io launcher- open from your downloads folder, or some music may not work!
REVIEW EXCERPTS:
"This game is a hell of a ride, in the best sort of way. The writing is sharp and manages to capture heavy topics in life in quite a real way, alongside the excellent art style and a quite nicely fitting sound track. I greatly recommend this game. (In addition, I suggest having some water, and allocating a decent chunk of time for taking a break as needed. It's heavy, in a very good way.)"
"People underestimate how much abuse can affect us. How we lie to ourselves and say it's ok, how we keep holding onto relationships even though we know they're bad. That we reject parts of ourselves in order to please others. In the end that's just horrible, and horrifying, in the right light, a light this game sheds wonderfully. "
"absolutely LOVED what i've played so far, can't wait to see more!"
"This game handles some very heavy topics quite well.
It's a deep descent into the psyche of the protagonist and their everyday struggles to hold themselves together. Their troubles and insecurities hit close to home and the entire experience itself is very powerful. I'm so glad to have found this game!
The writing, art, and music are all fantastic. I just wish it was longer for the asking price.
I do hope we'll get more episodes in the future, this is a ride I want to be a part of."

I don't think I can say anything that hasn't already been said, but Fantasy Cascade SLAPS. Give it a read.
Adored this, and the art. Is there hope for more?
