A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

UPDATE: The bad-end now has an end-card! Many thanks to holy-fishstick-fight from tumblr for doing an emotional and perfect end-card. The other two remain in need of them, if you wish to do one, just contact me at Twitter!

This fanroute is a passion project. Tavros is among my favorite characters in Homestuck, and I wanted to give a go at doing him justice in a Pesterquest format. This project started as a personal thing. I wanted to use my experience as an abuse victim, who also perpetuated abuse herself, to try and do Tavros and Vriska's dynamic justice. That would be only what it would be, except Tavros' official route came out, which I was waiting for to get the assets to use in my route. I realized that a bit of the fandom who wanted to see interactions with Gamzee and Tavros were let down, and thought I would try to fill that niche.

This route is playable without interactions with Vriska- which I know can be upsetting for some people. Simply choose to comfort Tavros, and then direct him towards Gamzee. If you acknowledge Vriska at the first branch, it leads to a bad end where Vriska learned nothing. I normally do not share spoilers but due to her abuse of Tavros, it is worth sharing for full disclosure.

This project will never be a paid download, and I only take credit for the content I wrote as well as the code I put into this.

Thank you for giving my project a chance, and thank you to all of you lovely folks who supported me through the production- you checking up on me and the occasional butt-kicking made sure I saw it through to the end. I appreciate it.

Install instructions

Windows: Download the file, and find it in your downloads. It should be a file with a zipper on it. Right click, and then clock on extract all. This will take a moment but it will make the route available to you. You should have the option for it to take you there when it's done. Once in the file, double click the unzipped folder, and then double click the icon labeled TavrosFanroute that is Application type of program. This should bring the game up to make it available for play.

There may already be a save available for load, this will not harm your game and can be saved over if you like. It's a holdover from testing that I can't quite get rid of.
