I've been making flash games a few years now. It's been real fun. When I started I didn't actually intend to create a standard world for so many of my stories to take place in. But it did just kind of happen. A lot of players never make the connection, but some do. I find it really touching when they notice crossovers and such, or details that connect stories and character. When a player recognizes a location in one game, from a previous game. The use of fiend magic in Kingdom of Liars and the fiends having been released in Hood, a few players mentioned this and it was fantastic to me that they noticed.
Sometimes I see fan art or fan fiction associated to my projects, and there is nothing more exciting or flattering in the world. It makes me feel like I created something that mattered to someone, if nothing else just for a moment. I thought I'd share some of the stuff I've seen and/or discovered, and if any of you have created something that I failed to share here, please let me know and I'll include it!
The first things I would like to mention, for any interested, are these wikis!
Alice is Dead Wiki
Lorestrome Wiki
Lots of good info and theories on these pages. I LOVE reading them, haha, yes I'm that self absorbed. Kidding aside, it's great to see what the readers and players think, and alarming when their ideas are better than my own. ;_;
This is something that blew my mind. A tv tropes based on Alice is Dead. Reading it really helps a creator see the structure of their work, the cliches and how players view the world you present. It's fantastic.

There are more, but I can't seem to dig them up right now. It's pretty flattering, but more importantly, it's really fun to see this stuff!

Thanks for organizing all that, it's cool to see all the art and stories inspired by your games! Had no clue people were writing fan fiction about web games, I wonder how much of that we would have on NG with a Lit Portal.
Hyptosis
Yeah! I've seen a few people suggest they'd like a lit portal. I'd probably use one too but I don't know how much. I'd rather see an easy to use comic portal. >:D It's certainly flattering and fun to see, I have the best players ever.
