The Creeper's Continuum

INDEFINITE HIATUS

The Creeper’s Continuum and all projects therein are on an indefinite hiatus. They were a lot of fun to work on and think about—and TCC: Dating Sim has come dangerously close to completion. But, unfortunately, I have too many projects, and these ones just aren’t as interesting or fun to work on as some of the others.

If you’re personally interested in receiving any of the ‘finished’ content for any of these games please reach out to me through email at contact@ragnois.gay! Besides that, you can play what little bit of the game was written here on the website:

Depending on the path the player takes dating her she attempts to destroy the school in various different ways.

By dating her the player can also manage to make her change her mind. Though this ending may be hard to achieve.

Nexus

Mister Smithed himself, dean of The Creeper's College, is a renowned figure in the setting. Creator of Smithed Incorporated, a subsidiary of The Creeper Corporation.

They are a mysterious character, though their relation to Creeper seems ancient. They appear very formal.

Nexus Smithed does not appear often throughout the game, but their appearances drastically shift the narrative and raise tension.

---

Smithie

---

Scuttler

The Scuttler is the school pest, an invention by one of Creeper's previous, now-expelled, students. The Scuttler is encountered by the player in the school's courtyard as a feral pest, but a relationship may be pursued.

Their dating storyline parallels Lead's as a reversal of the trope. The Scuttler is sentient and possess language: though none of the NPCs believe the player. Players may translate the Scuttler's dialogue if they wish. NPCs believe the player's relationship to be abhorrent.

The Scuttler itself speaks in an animalistic broken form of English. It dubiously reciprocates the feelings of the player.

---

Lead

Lead is a non-sentient ingot of pure lead. They do not possess any dialogue, expressing emotion only through their sprite. Despite this lack of dialogue the player may pursue romantic interest, which is not reciprocated by the ingot.

Lead's storylines revolve around the player not realizing that they are in fact not sentient and resulting in hijinks such as poisoning the towns water supply or giving innocent bystanders lead poisoning.

---

Friday

Friday is prom day, where the culmination of the player's actions result in different endings at the prom.

Huh

What 'bout me?

text: "Any text options not specified in the command are not shown. You can also leave the command as just one line to show all connected nodes."

back:

That's cool

text: "The choice command uses outcoming arrows from the parent node to determine what choices the player can make. The color of these arrows is meaningless."

next:

Mystic

Mystic is the school bully, though they do not attend the same class as the player—attending Modding Class instead of Data Packing Class. They are encountered outside of the main chunk of the player's day and are a dateable option. By dating Mystic the player encounters him more often.

Mystic is abrasive and a bit of a joker, misdirecting the player through pranks, jokes, and sarcasm. Though, when needed, they can easily adopt a serious attitude. The dating storyline for Mystic revolves around breaking down their emotional shield and revealing a more tender character.

---

Wednesday

Wednesday is a data packing competition, where the players actions from the previous day regarding how they hunted the data packers impact their school work.

---

Tuesday

Tuesday is the player's first impressions with their new crush, as Creeper takes the class out on a fieldtrip to hunt a wild data packer. The players actions have big consequences on their crushes opinions on them during this day.

---

Monday

Monday serves as the player's introduction to the game's cast of characters and the general setup for each day in the game. The allows the player to make a decision as to which character they most want to invest their time into.

---

Player

The player is a new student to TCCollege. The decisions they make with other characters determine their true personality and character history. Outside of this they are simply a studious person, or at least that's what Creeper thinks of them.

The decisions the player makes impact their reputation with the NPCs, impacting the way those NPCs interact with them and changing the end of the game.

---

Thursday

Thursday the player takes their crush out on a date, though they may be turned down resulting in an alone-day. This day has a lot of different outcomes depending on who the player is interested in and their previous actions.

Femchro

Femchro is the typical high-energy quirky girl stereotype. Outwardly she appears to be what the player expects of this stereotype, but by pursuing her storyline the player may discover that despite her over-the-top aesthetic she is intelligent and capable—if a bit clumsy.

She has a naive and excited attitude generally, using a refined version of e-girl texting mannerisms. Despite this she is capable of having personal deep moments with the player.

Her storylines may primarily revolve around mistakes she makes which the player must fix themselves. She has insecurities regarding the ways she's perceived by others and the way her own actions reinforce that perception.

Her red flag is that she has a shrine of the player.

Using Variables

text: "Variables are a valuable tool for making branching paths and making characters feel real."

text: "Here we go to the node titled "Huh" if the variable is greater than or equal to one, or "Back?" if it is less than one. If there are multiple arrows of the same color it chooses randomly."

next: [ {if: read >= 1: "Huh"}, {else: "Back?"} ]

note: This is a conditional next command. It uses if statements and an else statement for if neither of the if statements return true. Else statements can be left blank, in which case they choose a random node which is not already mentioned in an if statement.

Creeper

Professor Magnet is the players' and NPC's professor and owner of The Creeper's College, a barely disguised high school setting.

Magnet is an amazing logical thinker, though suffers emotionally at times. He does not hold back when expressing disgust or hatred, though may seem reserved regarding other emotions.

He is a celebrity in the setting, known for his many past ventures. Creeper sees amazing opportunity in the player, having selected them for the school. As their professor he knows their love is wrong, but pursues it regardless.

The Myriad Name Change

The Creeper’s Continuum’s name may be slightly confusing now. As of the 20th of December, 2025, the namesake of the projects, a Minecraft data pack formerly known as The Creeper’s Code, is now known as Myriad. The Creeper’s Continuum will not receive a name change reflecting the source material unless the hiatus is lifted.

The Creeper’s Continuum is a setting containing a series of games I’ve had on the back burner since early 2020—starting with the first mention of the TCC: Dating Sim in the official Myriad Discord. A question you may quickly find yourself asking is, “What the fuck is TCC (now Myriad), and why the hell does it constitute the production of multiple games?” And there’s many layers to that question—layers that I will be promptly ignoring.

The Creeper’s Continuum is a fantasy-comedy setting that parodies the Minecraft community—specifically, the data pack community. The setting features a number of fictional characters inspired by community behaviors, stereotypes, and tropes. Some characters are based directly on real individuals, and are only used with explicit permission. Others are exaggerated and satirical composites, loosely inspired by the broader community, and never intended as direct representations.

The Creeper's College: Dating Simulator || Synopsis

You’re a new student at The Creeper’s College (TCCollege) whose attempting to navigate the complexities of college life while balancing their need for love. Interact with an amazing cast of characters and follow complex weaving storylines in this visual novel dating simulator!

The Creeper's Crime: Magnet of Law || Synopsis

In the aftermath of what the police claim was a freak accident, Creeper Magnet wakes up to discover that he no longer has a head. The doctors did what they could but his head was unsalvageable, forcing them to graft his brain into his chest cavity. In this crime noir a desperate Creeper Magnet attempts to take control of his life by reconciling with who did this. But in the search to find them, he finds himself falling deep into a rabbit hole of crime and deception.

Destroy gangs, cripple monopolies, and bring criminals to justice while you play as Creeper Magnet, attempting to discover who committed The Creeper’s Crime.

The Creeper's Clones: The RPG || Synopsis

All Creeper Magnets eventually end up trapped here, the CREEPER pulling them into this space between universes. But Creeper Magn’t, leader of TCCapital, tells you there’s a way to escape: the MAGNET (Multiversal Apparatus for Generating, Nullifying, and Editing Timelines).
