Crème de la Crème Turns Five!
Happy fifth birthday, Crème de la Crème!
When I started making this game in spring 2018, I had no idea that it would become so successful, nor that I would still be answering messages about the characters five years after it was released, nor that I would still be making games in the world1. It's been such a source of inspiration and creative joy for me.
Two years ago I did a Crème de la Crème retrospective on the blog; since then, it's been featured in academic work, people have made art about it, someone somehow managed to play the game while romancing every character, and I'm overjoyed that new audiences are still finding and enjoying it.
Thank you to everyone for stepping into this world with me. Don't forget your etiquette textbooks!
I would perhaps have been less slapdash with my worldbuilding if I'd known I'd make more games in the world, but maybe not: it's how I like to do it.↩
