The Story: 

It's finally that time. The day of year every prey dreads. "Pred Day". Every year on the first day of fall is Pred Day, when any pred can eat any prey of legal age with no legal repercussions or social stigma, not that there's much of either for preds these days. Some preds go on a hunting spree, fucking and swallowing down anything that moves. Hell, some preds even accidentally eat other preds. (Though of course preds are naturally resistant to digestion so usually the swallower will notice and rectify their mistake far before it's too late, but not always...)

For the last 21 years of your life it just meant staying inside or staying close to your dad or brother, two preds nobody in their right mind would mess with. But now that you turned 21 a few days ago (Happy Birthday by the way!) you are officially on the menu. And not just for random strangers, no no no, as a prey you're now at risk of being a snack for any pred that crosses your path, even your own family!

For some mixed pred/prey families, the bond of family is enough to protect the smaller, weaker prey members and the preds of the family will protect their kin with a ferocity that is not to be taken lightly. For others, there's a shared indifference. After all prey is prey and if someone from the family doesn't eat them then someone else will. But for some families like yours, well... let's just say your father and brother both heartily celebrated your birthday and not for the same reason you did. In fact, your dad and brother have been arguing for the last few weeks about who is going to put you in their tank.

Now it's the day you've been dreading and you have a plan with just a few simple steps. As a prey minor, you couldn't legally go anywhere unaccompanied by an adult, even after general adulthood at 18, but now your goals are to escape your family, escape your house, escape your neighborhood, and find a prey only city somewhere far away where you can settle down and make a life for yourself. But it won't be easy. Between your dad and your brother, you're in the lion's den so to speak. Your father's locked the doors and windows in preparation and you haven't been allowed outside the house since your birthday. Not to mention you live in one of the most pred-heavy neighborhoods in town. It'll take all your wits to make it out alive, and if you fail there're no second chances.

Happy Pred Day, and good luck. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After two and a half years, we finally have the exciting public release of the third version of my Furry (And now human!) Vore Text Adventure! This is also the  first version released on Itch! Now that I've picked it up again I hope to keep this project well alive and running.

This story contains: Prey POV Sex and Unwilling OV/AV/CV, Soul Vore, Macro/Micro, Muscle Worship, Paw Domination & Crushing, Sadism, Casual Vore, and more!

Note: Also contains avoidable Father/Son and Brother/Brother Vore. If you're not into it, just skip past the scenes for now. There is no family content outside the house and a switch will be added to future versions to disable the family content altogether.

The first part was just within your character's house. The second version added on your neighborhood itself! The third version adds the local college campus! Though it is still a work in progress, the campus will contain a host of new scenes of every kind!

Before we go further, let me address a serious announcement. I was laid off my job right before Christmas and I have been struggling to find work since then. The unemployment system has let me down and I've gone deeply in debt just to get by. I really need every bit of help I can to keep food in my mouth and a roof over my head. So please, if you like what you see, consider joining my Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/EscapetheNeighborhood.

Patrons will receive early access to the game and will get live updates as new scenes are added, rather than having to wait for the full .40 release (which will be released here and on FA when completed). Higher tier patrons will also get voting benefits and even the opportunity to have a special scene written for them or their own character added into the game as a pred or prey!

To play this game you will need to download Quest from http://textadventures.co.uk/ Quest is a great system and there are quite a few good CYOA stories on here and on Furaffinity so it's worth getting! Best of all it is 100% free! There is also an online version of the game available on their website which can be played without downloading anything. It is recommended to download the game as the online version of Quest is notoriously unstable.

This is my very first vore story AND my first quest game even though I think I'm getting pretty good at it so feedback is highly encouraged, but please be kind! If you run into any glitches please let me know ASAP!

before I try it, what kind of vore is in there?

(+1)

The demo has Oral, Anal, and Cock Vore. The full patron version also contains Soul Vore, optional Disposal, and optional Graphic Digestion. It comes in both full size and macro/micro varieties,

Oh my god, I'm obsessed with this game! Amazing story, choices, and such fun paths! Do you have any advice you could give to someone who's trying to do something similar? I started working on something somewhat along the lines of what you're doing, but also not entirely. It's hard to understand, so if you have any tips and/or are willing to help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it! In the meantime, keep up the amazing work on this game! I just created this itch.io account today, but I've been following "Survive the Neighborhood" for nearly 3 weeks. It's been a hell of a ride so far and I can't wait to see what you do for the future!

Thank you so much!!

My best basic advice is start small. Don't try to do a huge area or complex puzzles straight out of the gate. When I started I just had the house with the first few rooms and slowly expanded. Almost everything you need is in the Quest documentation but don't be afraid to ask questions on the Quest forums! People there are super helpful and kind. :)

(1 edit)

Alright. So I took some of your advice, and it was actually quite helpful! I assume this project probably took weeks or months even before you could release the first draft on here, cause I've spent all day and the best I could do is make connected rooms in the house with some descriptions of objects here and there. Regardless, I hope mine is as good as yours. I'm definitely using "Survive the Neighborhood" as a guide because it's everything I want in a text-based adventure game, and more!

Amazing game! Hope to see much more CV in the future! Maybe Even Udders and Udder vore! I'd also Love to see more crunchy ends for our dear ol prey! And More details in the digestions! Other than those wants. This game is amazing!

Thank you very much! There's definitely been more CV added to the patron version! I will be honest and say I don't think udders is anything I'm ever likely to get into though. Definitely plan on more in-gut crush and micro crush scenes and I've definitely added a few more micro crush scenes recently! :) Thank you very much for your kind encouragement!

Can someone help me get to the open dorm pls

(1 edit)

I'm so sorry I appear to not be getting notification emails from itch when I get comments for some reason! To reach the dorm just keep going North once you hit Campus, you'll reach the Administrative Building, keep going North through the building to reach the Campus Housing Green. To the North is the Dorm Building and to the West is the Gym. Just go inside the Dorm and it's in there. :)

Thx you

You're welcome! I got the email for this reply so if you have any trouble let me know, I'll try to keep an eye out just in case.

i have spent three real life days trying to escape the house with no luck whatsoever, i either take too long and fail or i run into dad who eats me. any help on actually getting outside??

(+1)

FYI: If you want a guaranteed escape from the house, turning down the family photo on your desk in your bedroom is practically mandatory so that you can easily get Dad's front door key from his dresser without a sweat.

I'm so sorry I appear to not be getting notification emails from itch when I get comments for some reason! This is way late but just to confirm, yes what Naughty Mono said is right, if you want to get out of the house easily you can just turn the family photo down. The key is in the laundry basket if you don't want to do that, it's just luck based.

This thing is really sick, can you imagine, but in the real world this does not last 5 minutes in a bullet in the head for the idea of just thinking that

Sorry? I don't quite understand?

is getting on the bus not actually possible? as far as I can tell the area where it would be has the family that automatically eats you if you so much as enter that tile.

Correct, the escape ending is not in the game yet.

ah okay. fair enough, just wasnt sure lol

Loving this game so far, only issue is that for some reason, after a certain point, I can't save my game. Getting the error message "Failed to save field """ Invalid name character in 'saved_map_for_Predator Ave University Dr'. The ' ' character, hexidecimal value 0x20, cannot be included in a name" Would love to play more but would really love to save my progress every now and again. Keep up the good work ^^

Hey there! Is that happening in the demo or the Patreon version?

I know that at a certain point Quest's save/load system doesn't quite handle the map storage appropriately but there might be a way to fix it.

Demo version I beleive (the file on here). Soon as I got into the university, I was no longer able to save so not quite sure what happened. Should mention I explored every area (bar 1 square) beforehand so maybe something to do with Quest getting too much to handle? (Not a programmer so i have no idea sorry) Thanks for getting back to me though ^^

Gotcha! Yeah that was a problem that came up with the demo versions. It's unfortunately a problem inherent to Quest so there's only so much I can do to fix it and partially why for the Patreon version I created cheat codes to help speed things up.  I'll double-check because it's been quite a while since that first came up but I think it also mattered where you save, like if you went back to the neighborhood from the campus it would let you save there but I could be misremembering.

Hm oki doke. Will give it a try. Thanks for the help ^^

Writting on mobil and haven't played it yet but if you disrespection is even half as good as the game then it's great, but I do have a suggestion/ question of if you will possibly have a flipped story maybe as the brother or father or the same character but as a pred. 

It's something that's crossed my mind. I don't think I'd be quite as good at writing pred-perspective but I do think I could. Thank you for the suggestion!

(1 edit)

i will say this that it is less about being able to write the perspective and more about having fun with it. Just to show a possible way to write it is a battle of instincts of do I eat the prey or protect them. Another thing to write could be that its a rare thing that if you go protect you could be eaten or eat other preds and as a thank you you have the hot little prey bouncing on your cock while you Digest your own personal prey.

PS I am not a writer or am good at writing stories because you ask me to hand write it and it disappears you asked me to type it it will also disappear from my head very quickly.

How do I start my adventure, nothing i try works

 I'm happy to help, but I'm definitely going to need more info. Are you having trouble loading up the demo? Are you having issues getting out of the house? Are you stuck on a specific screen?

(+1)

no sorry, I figured it out after some frantic clicking. 

Alrighty! Well if you have any other trouble just let me know! :)

Wow. Holy cow, you do an excellent job of setting the scene. All the wonderful descriptions when you inspect stuff like the toilet and the kitchen table are just *immaculate.* The whole air of helpless compliance really sets the mood as well. You’ve done an excellent job. Will you be going further into digestion and disposal scenes with the preds, by any chance?

Thank you so very much! I'm really glad you liked those things because those were definitely some of the things I strive for!

Yes! Just recently I added the disposal feature! Off the top of my head I believe as of my last Patreon update there are around 13 scenes with optional disposal currently and I intend to add it to all of the endings, including more intense digestion scenes!

I understand that you gotta work with what you have, but calling Quest a great system is absolutely hysterical. Quest is straight awful, no two ways about it. Runs horribly, controls horribly, and is eternally marred by zero QoL.

It's never given me any trouble honestly. It's easier to my brain to understand than visual novel software and the UI for a creator is very intuitive. Plus the ability to move any direction and have a navigable visual map is a big draw to me.


If you know of better free software with similarly easy to use UI for creators and features let me know! I'd be happy to check it out. 😃

Oh wow! ^__^ It's been sooo long since I played this! :o Thank xou for bringing it to itch.io, and also for resuming production! :3 EtN was by far 1ne of the best vore games on FurAffinity, so I can't wait to be digested again~ n///n

(+1)

Awww that's wonderful! Welcome back! I'm so glad you enjoyed it before and I hope you continue to enjoy it! ❤️ I appreciate the kind words so very much?

the game is so amazing, kinda confusing for a first time playing it but it worked out well after the 2nd game

I'm so glad you like it! There's definitely some trial and error for games like this but if you run into any questions you can't work out, please feel welcome to reach out to me! :)

Don't worry, I like to explore; the only problem tho I have now is how to get out of the house:)))))))

Well if you need help just let me know! Keep in mind some events with the dad are random and won't happen every time!
