LISA: THE RUEFUL is a fantastical recreation of LISA: THE JOYFUL, breathing new life into the world of Olathe.

RUEFUL aims to present the story of JOYFUL in an artistic, narrative-based form that deviates from other entries in the LISA fangame scene.

As the player, you have the liberty to decide the path Buddy takes. As a young girl, the only girl, her mind is malleable. The type of person she grows up to be, or if she even gets to grow up at all, is in the player's hands.

As Buddy explores Olathe with Rando by her side, she meets a mysterious young boy with similar goals as her - to learn what it means to belong in this world.

RUEFUL is in its early stages of development and conceptualization. This page, for the foreseeable future, will be updated sparsely.

Disclaimer: LISA: The RUEFUL is not a part of official LISA canon. Marxo (NotoriousWORM) and his team, as well as RUEFUL in its entirety, are not affiliated with Austin Jorgensen / Dingaling Productions or Serenity Forge.

RUEFUL is intended to be played only after completing the original LISA trilogy, nor is it intended to be played by individuals under the age of 18.

i will say that experimenting with how i'll draw buddy for the game is really fun. this is coming from someone who strongly dislikes buddy

got some motivation to make a draft of the title screen. do note this graphic will NOT be used in the final version and will be replaced with a different one. i will continue to tweak as necessary.

important message from vega van dam that may influence development.

been revising my concept outlines document, and decided to make a new one entirely. essentially starting from scratch. feedback from my codevs has led me to reconsider a lot of the work i'm doing as well as certain important plot points

my scripts guy fell off the face of the fucking earth so i'm left to my own devices when it comes to scripting my bare bones build @darianblarian FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry i really need to make a new banner it's pissing me off

i'm working hard in the rueful mines.

as of right now, i am currently working on an outline for the game as a whole as well as drafts for how the main cast will appear. i have to balance all of this with working full time, so it's slow.
