Jessica’s Choices – Forced [Ep.1]

Episode 1

Episode 1 Content

• 1,890+ brand-new in-game renders
• 3,714 total in-game renders
• 58,697 words
• 18 videos/animations
• 45 different story starting points/configurations
• 131 additional Fan Art & Promotional renders (separate from the 3,714 in-game renders)

Story Progression

• Episode 1 contains new story content and progression across a number of Jessica’s existing paths:
• Steven Wake Up — progressed
• Run Away with Hayley — progressed
• Run Away without Hayley — progressed
• Margaret Thatuals — George route — new/progressed content
• Margaret Thatuals — Nurse Roberts & Professor Trounch route — new/progressed content
• RED — introduced
• Old Man / Old Woman Getaway routes — progressed

Because of the sheer number of possible branches in Forced, not every route progresses the same distance during Episode 1.
Routes that reach their current end point remain playable and will continue to develop in future episodes.

New Features & Systems
DoAdventures.Net Walkthrough
A completely new built-in walkthrough system has been added through DoAdventures.Net
The walkthrough is organised by route, giving players a much easier way of navigating the increasingly ridiculous number of possible paths and choices.

Optional Route Colours
Choices are grey by default, which remains the intended way to experience the game. For players who want a little more guidance, route colours can be enabled through Preferences. These indicate which routes particular decisions are associated with.

Achievements
A new achievement system has been implemented, complete with custom achievement artwork and Steam integrated.

Gallery
Gallery functionality has been added, allowing unlocked content to be viewed from within the game.

Choice Replay
Important choices and scenes can now be revisited through the new replay system without needing to replay an entire route.

Habana Bar Mini-Game
Jessica can now actually work her shift behind the bar. Customers appear throughout the shift with different orders, and you’ll need to interact with them, prepare their drinks and serve them correctly.

New Music & Soundtrack
The game’s music has received a substantial overhaul/addition, with new music integrated throughout Episode 1.

Brand-New Main Title Video
The main menu/title presentation has also been updated with a completely new video.

And, because it deserves to survive from the previous changelog:
I removed one inexplicably levitating massage table from the middle of a fucking lake.

And Finally…
Forced EP1 has become considerably bigger than I originally anticipated.

With 3,714 renders, nearly 59,000 words, 18 videos and dozens of different possible story states, Episode 1 is only the beginning of where I want to take Jessica’s story. Some routes have travelled much further than others already, some have only just begun to reveal where they’re heading, and others will receive their next major progression in Episode 2.

v1.0 (Part 1)
This is Part 1 of a two-part initial drop. Originally, it was going to be a single full release — but as I developed one particular area of the story, it started growing, deepening, and really finding its rhythm. I didn’t want to rush the middle section just to push it out, so I’ve decided to split the release and give both parts the attention they deserve.
Instead of cutting corners, Part 1 stands strong on its own, with more to follow shortly.
✅ Part 1 includes:
– Over 51,345 words
– Jessica and Hayley working
– Jessica after the events with either the old man or woman
– Jessica and Steven’s complicated relationship.
– Jessica’s arrival at Margaret Thatuals after being taken by George — following the police station, the hospital, and the streets
– New scenes that dig deeper into Jessica’s internal world — seductive, strange, and sometimes dark
– Over 2.7GB of content
