I just read this and I'm sick to find out it's been almost 4 years since we got an update this interactive fiction is so well written. Ezra is my fave love interest. I just hope the author is thriving, healthy, and well or at least okay.
First if ever for me, played like a week after the on hold announcement, led me to discover some things I liked, and I still revisit every now and then, holding on a little sliver of hope I may see it updated
I wish I knew this was a ghosted IF before playing it so I wouldn't have played it.. Because I am now literally torn and heartbroken at the fact there is no conclusion to this incredible experience. If you happen to see this author, I hope you're well and I hope you realize how talented you are and how many people are moved by your work. I have never delved so deep into a IF. But this.. Is a masterpiece. I felt like I was the main character.
I dont know who im in love with more, Oliver, Ezra, Gage, or the story itself. Either way, the story isn't finished yet (and that is no problem bc i now have time to make all the fanart my heart desire), but it is something I've never read before, its well written and fleshed out, very VERY intriguing and I am looking forward to the next chapter <3<3
this is incredible work! Even though it seems it may never be finished, it was still really enjoyable to experience what there is of it - I hope the author is doing well :)
Heard a lot about this game. Including how heartbroken people are about it being ghosted. But, I'm gonna try it anyway because with so many people still loving it, even years later, it must be something special. I really hope the author didn't vanish because they passed... I hope they can still read all the lovely messages people are leaving for them here, and that it cheers them up.
Today on 29 May 2025, I came back after almost 2 years in a hope that may be new episodes have been created. I couldn't find them, but it didn't disappoint me. I want to tell the developer, you are amazing, I have played the game many times, though we all want more than this, but we also want you to be safe and sound. If you are happy in your life and everything is okay with you, we all are happy. It doesn't matter, if you come back or not, what matters is YOU.
I made an entire account just to comment on this absolutely beautiful work of art called “Scout”, absolutely loved playing it just to find out that it hasn’t been updated in years. I just wanted to say that I really loved playing this game, and I loved each and every character! ❤️
AHH i remember plying this game a year and a half ago, coming back to play it again even tho it has been discontinued, I hope one day the uthor picks up whre they left from love love the story and the background music (does ayone knows what they are by the way ? Because I don't see it mentioned anywhere on their profile, unless they did it themselves)

cry our f*cking eyes out because this beautiful masterpiece is most likely dead (praying not forever and we are all in one big nightmare /hj )

Oh, man. I still come back from time to time, and every time I still get heartbroken to see the same last update.
Same for me, it's like I always tell myself there won't be anything new but I can't help myself from checking.
