Day 5 in the Hellzone…
I’ve fashioned a tiny pair of jorts with the ratpoints I have accumulated in this realm. However, since ratpoints are simply an abstraction of my zone, I look as naked as my neighbor.
(Anyone willing to help me out? My name is the same except for the period.)[li]

My dear, this is intolerable. One expects a certain standard of fancy, even in those… eeegh… unsavoury Zones. I shall stretch out my mightily fancy god-paw forthwith.
Thank you, dear friend.
Now my ratpoints shall flap in the cool air of Ratzone once more.
Is a Heart of the Rat Zone purchased in the God Shack persistent?
EDIT: Also, do God Point gains scale with God Level, and what happens to gods who go to Hell Zone?

IIRC, hearts are persistent (and instrumental to fast ratscension), and avarats can just break themselves free out of hell without outside help.
I could remember wrong, it could have changed, I didn’t actually play (except to send rescue attempts) in a long while.
I have no idea why, but I’m addicted to this and it’s terrifying. Though could I bother someone to bust me out of the Hell Zone? Really, I have…no idea why I listened to that well. (I’m Whitrea in the game btw)
EDIT: Thank you so MUCH OH MY GOSH I dont know who you are though but. thank you

I think the Make a Billion Rat option for gods is bugged–I’ve used it twice now without getting anything for my troubles, although I still lose the full quarter-billion rats.
It’s a gamble! If you fail the luck challenge, you’ll get either 0 or 1 rats (50/50 chance), if you succeed you’ll get 0, 1 or 2 rats (33% chance each), and if you get the rare success (5% odds) then you’ll get 1 or 2 rats (50/50).
I think that probably works out that you get way more than a billion rats per billion rats used up. Alternatively you can stick with the regular billion rat things (1 bil regular rats makes 1 billion rat, 1 bil. royal rats makes 2 and 1 bil holy rats makes 3, 4 or 5 billion rats! whoa)

I just joined in as salirsalisco, feel free to send me anything… YAY RATS!
I don’t suppose there’s any place to learn more about Overco?
(Or that the Cruise Liner Zone is player-accessible?)
AHAHAHA Space! Those level 75 god dice! Oh my me. I am a level 131 rat god now :D
Hey Spacemarine! I’m a fan of your game and am creating a storynexus game of my own. I was wondering how you did the Bee Poison with the real-time countdown? I’m wanting to implement something similar with drugs.
The … what, now? That sounds intriguing …
[li]
That’s probably done with a living story? I’m doing the same thing in my own game.
Simple enough! It’s a living story (Stories dropdown on the toolbar -> Living stories) which sets the Bee Poison quality to 0 after 3 hours (and some bonus effects if you have a certain item). Then, any storylet that gives Bee Poison subscribes you to said living story (Advanced options on the branch result -> living story).
If you need any more info on 'em, there’s a fair chunk of informative text in the manual (if the hyperlink doesn’t work, just hit ctrl-f and search for Living Story :v)

On a whim a week or two ago, I added a couple storylets at various levels of Avarat (25, 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200)… mainly just to goad Nitebrite into wasting a bunch of time trying to get it that high. The one at 75 is playable once, and sets your Avarat quality to a random number between 0 and 200. Nitebrite lucked out and didn’t lose any progress :V

That’s what I was thinking it might have been :) Thanks for the clarification!
I really hope the level 200 rat god story is pretty cool, on account of 200 is the avarat cap. (I’m hoping its something like a list of all the levels of rat god titles, because I skipped over a bunch of them using those dice haha). (Its probably just death though if I had to make a serious guess :P)

I hope this is the case myself! I found it intriguingly plot-like when I saw that bit in the Gold Zone, and due to the nature of this game I immediately assumed it would never be followed up on ever for precisely that reason.
Sorry to be a bother but I have another question :) I’m trying to make a branch that sells all of the players "Fiber Optic Wire" for 20 Credits each. I’ve attempted changing the player’s Credits by "[q:Fiber Optic Wire]*20" and then setting Fiber Optic wire to 0 but it seems to cause the branch to break when played :\ How do you do it in the Rat Black Market card for "Buy Rats in Bulk"? Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

I think you need to space things out, maybe? So it’s [q:Fiber Optic Wire] * 20 instead of [q:Fiber Optic Wire]*20
…admittedly I’m not absolutely certain if that has any effect, but I always just put spaces in to be sure.
You should probably make sure you have the quality changes in the right order too; first the Credits change, then set the Fiber Optic Wires to 0. Also you might just have a loose HTML tag if the page just breaks when you try to play the branch.
