Move The Chains
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
If you'd like to support, and speed up, the development of Move The Chains, consider supporting on Patreon, SubscribeStar, and wishlisting on Steam. You'll find free progress reports there, along with benefits like early access to the latest versions. Free versions are also posted there a month after the release to the highest tier.
Touted as the nation's top cornerback, a five-star recruit out of Inglewood with scholarship and NIL offers from some of the top schools in the country, you finally have your goal in sight. Getting yourself and the woman who practically raised you out of the dump you called home. But the reality you worked yourself to the bone to create comes crashing down on the night of the semifinals against Mater Dei.
After nearly a year behind bars, you find yourself free once more. Knowing that no school was going to come near you, you resigned yourself to life beyond football before that gavel even came down. That is, until you run into a mysterious someone behind sunglasses - a two-time Superbowl MVP - looking to recruit you to the Texas A&N Wolves. But before you can even get past the starting pistol, another obstacle lands right in front of you. An obstacle that forces you to take matters into your own hands.
What you'll find in S01E01:
- 1,040 FHD, high-end still renders downscaled from 4K.
- 23 Animations through 3 scenes.
- Approx. 3 hours of content (or so I've been told.).
- A fresh, unique UI that tears itself away from the Ren'py standard that's currently being improved on for S01E02!
Follow the road to redemption
Within the hurricane that is your newfound stardom. you immediately draw both ire and praise, both slander and vindication. Can you hand the temptations that come with a second chance?
Find the girl(s) who'll follow that path with you
The options for a star athlete are many, sometimes far too many to choose just one. As light comes with dark, new faces come with new paths.
Fight your demons and break the cycle
Coming from a past riddled with drugs, abuse, and violence, it's all you've ever known. It's up to you to break away from the anger and violence you've always known to be the answer, it's up to you to break the cycle of pain and hate, to be a better human than those who brought you into the world.
Train, party, study, or improve yourself. The choice is yours.
Do you want to train? Do you want to party? Study film? Improve your psychological and physical well-being? Train too hard and the consequences might catch you, train too little and it might bite you. The decision is yours.
Season 1 will conclude once the file size starts getting out of hand. Will have something more concrete here when it gets to that point.

bought and went to download the game but it said that the media fire link no longer existed? Is that a bug on my part or?
Ah, sorry about that!
Reposted the links. They should be up now! :)
Regarding Android: It may or may not work. It wasn't personally working for me until I installed it via SAI/Split APKs Installer (on the playstore). But I've had people say it works.
Love the Story, and also the look of the game. Can't wait for what you have planned for future of the game.
Glad you enjoyed it, and thank you! Hope you enjoy what's to come!
First of all, I'd like to say "great game". I think the storytelling is up there with the likes of Dark Blue (Hillside) & Drifty, I think your characters are even more realistic. In this genre a lot of characters and themes are just a means to an end, but I feel like you really want to tell a story. I appreciate that.
If I'm not mistaken, you're still working on "We were just kids"? If so, I'd like to suggest to maybe only focus on Break the Chains first and maybe finish the other game after that. Not to say the other game is bad, but this is your "Magnum Opus" thus far. I'm saying this because updates take a long time and people lose focus really fast. You deliver huge updates, but maybe splitting a chapter into 2 or 3 parts and releasing them every 2 months would build up more momentum.
But anyway, thanks for your great work.
A little addition: I like the Kyle Rittenhouse reference in chaper 1. As someone who followed (as in livestreamed via Youtube) the whole trial from Germany and supported him, this hits close to home. Portaying something like this takes courage and portaying it not black/white takes storytelling skill.
Is this game going to have a harem option
Yep. Solo routes for most of the girls, as well. :)

Is this game dead
No. Should be out mid-April (23rd-ish) for Itch buyers. :)
Can we have a headhunting scandal like its the 09-12 Saints?
LOL. I thought of including options for cheap shots, but it doesn't really fit with the story.
Can we get a pick 6 and do the prime time cellie?
In the font options the X to return to the previous screen doesn't seem to work and I was forced to close and reopen the game.
Sorry about that. It's been noted and fixed for Episode 2.
Whew....need more of Ivy
I really enjoyed playing this, the renders looked beautiful!
Looking forward too
Super looking forward to more of this game. Really great and compelling feels.
