You, an average young person with no peculiar or inconvenient fetishes whatsoever, are the victim of a brief (and violent) encounter with the business end of a truck. You wake to find yourself lost in a strange land, accosted by disturbingly feminine monsters, fantastical demi humans, and even seemingly ordinary people—all eager to show you it’s what on the inside that really counts.
Season 2 Episode 5: Monsters in the Morass is available for download!
Changelog:
Another Inner World is a long-form text adventure with dating sim elements designed and written by Progressive and myself. New episodes (roughly 40,000 words) are released regularly. The publicly available release includes nineteen episodes with over a million words and a boatload of distinct vore scenes (mostly soft oral same-size vore, with a mix of unbirth, anal, and a few other methods of ingestion for spice), plus variations. You can find a quick preview of what you're getting into here.
If you like what you see and want to support the project, you can join the Patreon where patrons receive developer builds and early-access to the latest episode. Patrons will maintain a one-episode lead on the latest public release, which should mean roughly a 2-3 month delay depending on how long new episodes take to develop.
Season 2 - Latest publicly-available version of the game - This includes Season 2 Episodes 1-5. Note that you’ll either need to load a save file from Season 1 (link below) or use the included save builder to generate a playthrough.
Season 1 - Post-season update with Scene Gallery - This includes episodes 1-14.
Patreon link - Patrons stay one episode ahead of public releases, receive monthly work-in-progress builds of the next episode, and can also vote on polls to influence certain upcoming scenes and branches to previous ones.

The core narrative of the story involves our unwitting protagonist—you, naturally—thrust into a world of ravenous predators and tasked with fulfilling an ancient and horrendously cliché prophecy, all to stave off some nebulous threat and presumably save the world. The story is predominantly linear, with player agency primarily centered around avoiding (or, let’s be honest, deliberately seeking) gastric demise.
In addition, you’ll have the option to pursue relationships with your companions as you travel and face danger together. As of the current public release, you encounter four party members, although more will appear in the future. As the story progresses, more scenes will begin to diverge as you befriend and potentially romance your group.
The gameplay is pretty simple: you read, you click, you make a few questionable choices, you get eaten, you try again after some space-time fuckery puts you back at the moment you got a little too curious.
Additional Information:
Another Inner World’s narrative has been thoroughly outlined and is fairly on-rails. Most player choices concern your immediate survival and the relationships with your companions. This means that the first few episodes have fewer choices, though as the story progresses, you’ll start to experience more and more branching scenes primarily centered around character interactions. Episodes will never diverge entirely.
Also, please note that the pronoun selector is currently only available in season 2. We’re planning to extend this feature to season 1 at a future date, but for now it's exclusively male.
Regarding Patreon:
We will not paywall any aspects of Another Inner World’s story. Patrons stay one episode ahead of the latest public release and will also receive substantive developer builds of the current work-in-progress episode once a month.
Additionally, patrons are able to vote on occasional polls. These polls will be a way for supporters to influence some of the mutable aspects of the story, such as what specific monster the party will encounter in a future episode, or the shenanigans you and a certain companion might get up to during some free time.
