I don't know why, but I've been really fascinated with metafiction recently. For those of you who don't know, it when a piece refers to it's own existence and becomes self-conscious of the fact that it's a work of fiction, usually as either a parody or for shock value. There's a lot more to it than that though. In fact, it's actually pretty hard to explain. Here's a Wikipedia article explaining it as well as a list of examples.


Some really popular examples would be Undertale, Animal Man, Pony Island and The Stanley Parable. It's a really interesting idea for storytelling and I was wondering what you guys think of it.  Are some of your using it in your games?

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
