You play as a girl who has fallen under the control of a dark sorceror who forces you to seek out powerful artifacts to increase his power. Will you submit to his wishes, attempt to stop him, or try to seize the artifacts for yourself?
Brightwater is my first game, and is an attempt to create a VN style game where bad stuff is going to happen to the player character. The game focuses on mind control and submission, and, while the player character can eventually overcome these, the focus of at least the first part of the game will always be on the player as submissive.
The game is currently in an early stage, but the first major story arc is mostly completed and is at about 40k words. Expect some deadends and issues, but I need to get some reaction to the content as it exists now before I can dedicate more time to working on this project.
A12b:
Changed text colors to increase readability
Added version number to file
Potions: Fixed problems with Breast Growth potion. Prevented potion effects from reapplying after visiting the menu
Fixed several continuity issues relating to visiting people after having broken control.
Fixed "Ask about the caves" at the Market, which prevented some content from being accessed
Fixed "Explore the Market", which prevented some content from being accessed
Various other minor bugfixes

The black background makes the text hard to read.
The story is pretty great! It just needs filling out at the moment, and maybe toning down the colors and debugging a little would go a long way.
First off, before even starting the game - I realize it's an alpha, and version numbers are a bit unnecessary from that point of view, as someone who regularly downloads new versions of updating games, having different numbers is needed in case I want to check the new version against the old. That said, thanks for making a new game.
After trying the game, it ends rather abruptly for me after gaining the orbs. Dark page, nothing to click on, aside from the sidebar. Thanks for that, by the way - when trying out potions and testing the BE potion first, there's no "try another potion" spell. Also, when checking your appearance, and returning to the game, it doesn't go "back" a step, but rather repeats that page's function. Can farm Breast Expansions that way, if it's the 3rd potion you take.
