Fort of Chains

Fort of Chains is a completed, free, moddable, open-source, TEXT-ONLY sandbox management NSFW game where you lead and manage a band of slavers in a fantasy world. The game is configurable and can cover all gender orientations: MM, MF, and FF. Be warned that the game contains heavy themes of slavery and non-consensual sex. There are no support for playing as a submissive character. (Feature / Fetish list)

Key designs. This game is designed to be a short-story-teller machine: the core gameplay loop involves assigning groups of slavers to quests, reading what happens to them, and finally reaping the quests' rewards. This game is complete: all features, bugfixes, polish, balancing, and originally planned stories are finished. But improvements and community-made contributions are still being added continuously to the game.

Contributing. The game is always looking for all and any kind of contributions. More details here. As of v1.7, more than 40 kind contributors have helped by directly adding content into the game, while much more have helped playtest the game and give feedbacks. Drop by the (Discord) if you are interested! (If you use Discord, you can tell us your discord name too so we can give you a Discord role, which among other things allows you to bypass the seven days wait required there.)

There are several ways to contribute to this game:

Contributing story. You can help support this game by adding your stories into the game, which can be in the form of quests, events, or any other form you'd like. No programming knowledge required. This is possible thanks to the built-in GUI tool in the game for adding content: the Content Creator Tool. As long as you have a story in mind, simply follow the instructions in-game to add your story into the game.

To get started, open the game, and click the Content Creator Tool link from the starting screen. If you need help in the game, make sure to click the (?) help menu found everywhere in the game.

When you are done, you can submit the finished story either in the #your-contribution channel in Discord, or directly in the repository. If the story fits the game, it will be added pronto, with a lot of thanks! (More information).

Contributing art. The game welcomes artistic contributions! Please check this document for more details.

Contributing code and others. This game is open-source. Coding help, play-testing, and all other kinds of contributions are also welcomed. We are also looking for people willing to help writers put their content into a merge request. See here for other contribution ideas.

Questions? If you are hoping to contribute something and have questions, please do not hesitate to ask in Discord. (If you are a contributor and also on Discord, let us known your discord ID here so we can give you a Discord role, which among other things allows you to bypass the seven days wait there.) Don't know what to contribute? See here for ideas.

Vision Fort of Chains is a passion project. My hope is that one day, the project will be entirely community-led, and I can take a back seat as just a regular contributor :)

How to Contribute Content

Writers can contribute stories in the form of quests, events, etc. It is very easy, and no programming skill is required! Follow the in-game steps in the GUI-based Content Creator Tool (accessible from the starting screen of the game). See submitting your content for more information about what to do after you finish your content.

If you would like to contribute in another way, or if you need help with implementing your quest, please come over to Discord, or open a new issue in this repository. (If you are a contributor and also on Discord, let us known your discord ID here so we can give you a Discord role, which among other things allows you to bypass the seven days wait there.)

Programmers are also welcome to contribute to the game -- merge requests are always appreciated! See repository structure and code guidelines to ease your entry into the project.

Artists, to add images into the game (e.g., more portraits for units, images for quest / event outcomes, icons, panoramas, room images, and more), see this document. An option is to give the project permission to use some of your existing artworks, which is greatly appreciated. The game will try its best to credit you properly.

Compiling Instructions

The main benefit of compiling your game is that you can permanently add into the game and test the content you have made with the Content Creator Tool. Compiling is very easy to do, the instructions are as follows.

First, download this repository (top right button of this page), then open that directory
Step two depends on your operating system:

Windows
1. Run compile.bat
2. Open dist/index.html (Don't mistakenly open the adjacent dist/precompiled.html!)
Linux
1. Ensure executable permissions on the following files by running: i. sudo chmod +x compile.sh ii. sudo chmod +x dev/tweeGo/tweego_nix64 iii. sudo chmod +x dev/tweeGo/tweego_nix86
2. Run ./compile.sh
3. Open dist/index.html
Mac
1. Ensure executable permissions on the following files: i. compile.sh ii. dev/tweeGo/tweego_osx64 iii. dev/tweeGo/tweego_osx86
2. Run ./compile.sh
3. Open dist/index.html

That's it! The code is compiled. Note that you need to compile again and reload the index.html file each time you make changes to the files. See here for common problems you might encounter.

If you are a programmer: This compilation method only compiles the twine files, and not the javascript or css files. To compile the javascript or css files, see instructions here. To test the game / deploy the game, see instructions here.

Submitting your Content

Once your quest is up and running, the final step is to add the quest you've written into the game permanently, to be played by everyone. This can be done in two ways:

The Discord Way

The first option is to drop the content in the #your-contribution channel in Discord. Someone will then check that it fits the game, and may give feedbacks. Once the feedback loop is complete (if any), the content will be put it in the game. (If you use Discord, you can tell us your discord name too so we can give you a Discord role, which among other things allows you to bypass the seven days wait required there.)

Merge Request Way

The second option is to submit a merge request to this repository. It is also very simple, and can be done without any programming knowledge. See submitting merge requests for a tutorial (with pictures!).
