It's a real pleasure that Fiona is portrayed as a hero in this game. Sassy and with a bit of that bad girl streak, but still with a good heart and on the right side, compared to the choice she made in the comics. This is a catchy song that has that quick, witty tone with the gentle touches that balance her personality out nicely.

I'm so glad you think so. :) Yeah! Fiona is a hero in CoA, while most indeed portray her as a villain. With good reason, she tends to be a villain, but in CoA we wanted to do something unique with every gal we picked for the main heroes. Nicole for example, isn't a holo lynx anymore, but more-so an android or synthoid or w/e the term is. :D

Fiona is awesome, and she's getting a lot of cool stories coming soon, thanks for checking this out and enjoying the song!

I have heard Fiona is mostly a Villian in the sonic comics. But after reading the description (and the comments) I am impressed with the idea for her as being a heroine. I wonder what interactions she will have with Sally and co.

She's going to keep her rather raw attitude for the most part, but I think I'm writing her with a bit of a cold and calculated demeanor. There's a reason for it, and when the gang finally cracks it, she'll be her more sassy attitude self haha

This is really nice. I enjoy the track it offers. Do keep up the great work.

I love it.

This fits Fiona's character just right.

I agree, our composer really nailed it with this one.

Definitely.

Is the game still available online?

The game has only been made available to try in two ways: Signing up for the patreon, and requesting to try out the closed alpha on the forums. For now only the former option is available. A public release is definitely coming, but we want to build a more polished playable demo for public.

Understood.

I know it's awesome already hehe so if I have to wait for months or years for a public release, I'll definitely do that. 😄

Ahh, another fantastic piece of music. Reading the description and and the day this was posted, i'm glad to hear Chronicles of Acorn is still around, even if much harder to find then previously. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

Ps. What happened to previous collaboration, patreon page etc? if there's a post out there that explains it, it would be good to know, but i'll accept the "it's personal" too.

Hi there! I'm happy to know you enjoyed this theme! Yes, CoA is still around! It was getting HEAVY updates at the tail end of 2019 and beginning of 2020, but then my PC up and died! Well to be more specific, my power supply did! and when I switched it out for a new one, 3 of my drives were fried! One of them with my most recent work on CoA... So I lost a lot, a lot of progress. The most recent backup I had was Jan 4, but I still lost.. a lot of hours! and needless to say, I needed a break from CoA to re-energize my creative drive! There's nothin worse for a project than losing dozens of hours of work, then trying immediately to do it again from memory. It's so mentally challenging to do that. I'll be starting up again soon on reworking what I lost, but also adding new things and changing things a bit to make it fun again!

Anyway. The beta might not be too far off! but then it might be... I'll just keep crackin at it! The patreon needs all the help it can get though! So I can dedicate the time required to make the game.

SO! What previous collaboration are you referring to specifically? I ask because collaborations are my bread and butter. So it's a more vague question! Right now I'm collaborating with Aus-Army, Sallyhot, and Captain Jingo on some projects! What about the patreon page would you like to know about? Team Acorn's patreon has been renamed to Pokebuns, but it's still there! Sallyhot also returned as full partner for it!

Anyway, I'll be happy to answer those questions when you reply! Thanks for the comment. :)

Sad to hear you had pc failure and loss of progress, but good to hear you and others are still around and on CoA.

On the collaboration, i meant the one surrounding Chronicles of Acorn and it's patreon page and tumblr, but between Patreon rename (which many of us more casual viewers didn't know and some still don't) and lack of updates on non-patreon sites (of which many images/links still direct to either tumblr or teamacorn patreon which doesn't redirect to your currently renamed one), i'm sure you can understand the confusion on my part. As for CoA Tumblr blog... well, it's near impossible to access with tumblr's new no nsfw policy (even with account, since it's locked behind safe mode which tumblr no longer lets you disable), and since there isn't more public updates on teamacorn.net or it's forums, it has been hard to find news on your and sallyhot's CoA project.

Anyway, thanks for answering my questions. While i'd recommend more public updates on CoA beyond those in patreon (they don't have to be nsfw material, just minor mentions) and maybe looking for alternative, more publicly available blog than tumblr, they are all up to you and others. I'll keep an eye on the patreon page from now on and what updates you and sallyhot keep posting here on furaffinity or inkbunny.

Thank you again for taking your time to answer my questions. Stay safe and healthy

Yeah I understand that! The lack of updates outside of patreon can be tedius. I try to mention these types of things in the descriptions of my posts, but a good journal would surely help too wouldn't it! I'm so glad folks like you want to know what's going on with our projects and other things! That really does make me happy :)

Still, I'm sorry we're so unorganized. We made a twitter for Team Acorn I think... in 2012! I don't believe it's been touched since! Or was it a Facebook... The forums are mostly deserted but I do visit from time to time to check on it and see if there are new folks. The website hasn't been updated because it's some weird format that requires coding for updates and I simply.. Don't know how to code! And right now no one I know can code a website with updates. Thus Team Acorn's website is sitting there unupdated. It sucks really, and the fact we couldn't update it after a time is the main reason the Team shrunk to just Sallyhot and myself! One day we will create a new updated website that can have new art posted much easier, and I'll likely form up the Team all over again with many amazing Sonic artists and former TA members like the amazing TheOtherHalf, the incredible SlashySmiley, and more!

Anyway, I'm super rambling here. The point is, we're unorganized! The poor tumblr blog.. Sallyhot was more-so the one in charge of updating that, and as of right now, he's not too interested in updating ANYTHING publicly besides posting his art! He's assigned me to be the community manager of the Team you could say, which I don't mind because if you couldn't tell, I enjoy communicating with folks and answering questions! But it also means I'm the one that's gotta update everything in public. The tumblr... I'm not even sure how to do it since it was his and only he could edit it. I've been taking good care of the patreon, but yeah.. I think it's high time I make a new journal and let folks know about Team Acorn, Sallyhot and myself, Chronicles of Acorn, and anything else folks like you might want to know!

Lastly, Chronicles of Acorn is solely developed by me, aside from art/music assets. We pay a wonderful artist to make sprites, we've paid for a full OST from a talented composer, and the rest... has been up to me! Which is why actual updates are slow. Being the only developer on a game can take a lot out of ya! but it's no excuse. Plenty have done it. I'm chipping at it more and more. :) There are playable builds up on the patreon now, and I'll be sending out a new one soon with a new Bunnie Rabbot sprite sheet to the patrons!

Anyway, thanks for the comment! Been writing this reply for 20-30 minutes now! I'm a slow writer. If you have any more questions or concerns or suggestions that I can update the public on, please PM me! :) Take care!
