This is my first attempt at creating some kind of simlit (or simtoon ;)), you can read the first episodes here: https://tapas.io/series/The-Parker-Goth-Legacy-A-Sims-StoryIt's a mostly gameplay driven legacy story, with a runaway-teen and rags-to-riches setting. And it involves a prominent basegame family ;) I don't follow any specific challenge rules other than no cheating, randomizing traits and short lifespan.I'm curious to see how this project will affect the emotional bond with my Sims.

The next two episodes are out!Episode 3: https://tapas.io/episode/2954169Episode 4: https://tapas.io/episode/2954944Spoiler (Highlight to read)I quite enjoyed myself with how the game changed my initial ideas. Cassie played on the stage on her own and although I thought Riley could play for an audience this didn't work out at all, I think the pier is just a really bad location. And I actually failed to send him to class in time and didn't even know that you could talk yourself out of detention, haha.I quite enjoyed myself with how the game changed my initial ideas.

I like the comic format. Very well done!

I just read chapters 1-5! This is a great story! Whenever I send my sims to the pier, there's never anyone there. Hopefully Riley will find an audience somewhere. The game can definitely lead a story in another direction than you were planning. I've found that out this week writing my first sims story. I'm looking forward to the next chapters as well! The comic style is great!

Thank you both <3 @MrPlumbob Yes, the pier is kinda sad... I can somehow understand that NPCs don't use the rides on their own, but to put a stage there and then have nobody be interested in it seems like an oversight.Episode 5 is now out too: https://tapas.io/episode/2955316 (my favourite so far)And I start to feel like a movie director, haha. But also my perfectionism kicked in and I already wish that I had done the beginning differently. Not the story in itself, but the way I show it. I corrected a few things, but yeah, maybe it's a good thing that I can't turn back time in the save (I probably could, lol, but breaking the consistency of my Sims' universe would feel worse for sure than a wonky beginning of their story :wink:)

Episode 6 is out: https://tapas.io/episode/2956105Spoiler (Highlight to read) It was the first time I had a Sim take part in a GF talent showcase and I actually thought that there was a chance to win something, lol. Seems like another of the features that would need some kind of refresh...

Sadie is adorable. I laughed at pizza-flavored milk. It sounds like something stores would hype up and actually sell where I live as a limited-time item. Everyone would be tricked into trying it once :s and then never again.

Spoiler
The Goths actually had Chloe for a while now, but I wasn't able to include her in any of the other episodes before. But now both her and Damian played along quite nicely.

And Mortimer just was hilarious again, I don't know what kind of problem he had, lol.

Haha. Yes, it only takes 18 years :D to raise a child. That's not overwhelming at all. I enjoyed this episode. Hopefully, Damian and Chloe having similar ages will be convenient and they can become close (but not play together in the toilet or anything chaotic like that). I like how the entire family is clothed in red and black. Pets and infants are extremely cute. <3

Aww Sadie and Damian are so cute. That's funny because when the Goth's had another boy in my game once I named him Damian too. It's a good Goth name lol.

Chloe is the dog ;)

But yes, I hope they can have some kind of story together. I'm really excited to see with what traits they age up.

Hehe, yes, it's probably an obvious choice for the Goth family. He was born with another name, I only kept the initial D and looked for something that might fit Cassandra and Alexander.

Sadie and Damian are so cute! Mortimer definitely looks tired, but hey, as Alexander said, only 18 more years to go lol!

Can't wait to see the new baby! Raising children is a lot of work, even in the Sims lol. :D

Another baby on the way! :)

Sadie doesn't seem to be having a very good time. Maybe she'll grow to love music when she's older, or maybe she'll go in a different direction. I suppose we'll have to wait and see.

Hopefully Riley can get started with his career. Are you going to have him write songs on the guitar, or use the music production studio from Get Famous?

New episode:https://tapas.io/episode/3009012 :)

Spoiler
Liam is also a sunny infant, as Sadie was (she now has the Charmer trait), but he hates wake up time and is a picky eater, so caring for the kids is a little more challenging now, haha. Cassie will go back to work now and Riley will be alone with them both.

Liam's birth was very sudden and happened during the baby shower event, lol.

It was also quite challenging to write for a toddler. I can't even remember how my son spoke at that age let alone how that would translate to English, haha.
