We’re thrilled to announce that Dorian has partnered with Nochi Studios, a US-based, female-founded and run anime game studio, to delight fans with a platform-exclusive SweetcoreBrews series! 

Nochi will release exclusive Sweetcore Brews content on Dorian for fans to enjoy in single-player or streamed together with their friends and favorite cosplayers! ✨

"We’ve built these intricate worlds for each of our game titles and have so much content we’d love to publish, but we can only fit so much into our games," said Natalie Fang, Director of Sweetcore Brews. "Partnering with Dorian not only allows us to reach a broader audience and give fans more stories from our whimsy, spicy, witchy world that we’ve created, but fans will be able to be a part of a vibrant community on the platform and connect with each other to stream together and even write fanfiction."

Sweetcore Brews is a choice-driven game that employs a witchy sitcom theme while celebrating the classic staples of the visual novel medium by weaving together minigames and romance. 

“Sweetcore Brews already has all the hallmarks of a Dorian hit with gorgeous art, romance, and great writing,” said Julia Palatovska, Dorian CEO and co-founder. “Now, thanks to Dorian’s unique features, Nochi’s backers will access exclusive perks, community streams, connect directly with the development team, and get juicy extras they can’t find anywhere else! We are excited to welcome Sweetcore Brews to our platform, where we are dedicated to elevating game teams like Nochi and helping them grow their wonderful community.”  

To celebrate this new partnership, Dorian is gifting virtual in-app currency to allow Kickstarter backers to read the platform-exclusive Sweetcore Brews bonus scenes for free if they pledged to the following tiers:

• $15 Basic Tea Set [Mobile] - 60 hearts or $8 in value, gets you ~3 bonus scenes free!

• $100 Premium & $200 VIP Tea Set - 250 hearts or $35 in value, gets you all launch content free and enough for additional episodes!

Additionally, mobile backers will have the following perks on Dorian’s platform:

• Early access to Sweetcore Brews episodes on Dorian before it launches and opportunity to share feedback - backers can impact how the series shakes out before it releases

• Invite to exclusive stream events with the Nochi team

Are you an Interview with the Vampire superfan? We are looking for a group of creators and fans to help us make this partnership a success! Would you like early access to content, exclusive marketing assets, and a chance to get more involved with the Immortals Universe on Dorian? Then keep reading!

Who are we looking for?

Our Vampire Insiders will already be fans of Anne Rice’s iconic Interview with the Vampire and have a demonstrated history of creating fanfiction, cosplay, or social media content about it. They will have a history of positive and collaborative interactions in social media. They will be volunteers who want to express their passion by participating in Dorian’s upcoming Interview with the Vampire collab. All Ambassadors must be 18 years or older. 

As we have a limited number of slots available in our Ambassador Program, we will ask Ambassadors to commit to a certain level of participation. That is:

• Participate in at least 2 weeks of Interview with the Vampire in one of the following options:

  • Streaming Interview with the Vampire games LIVE

  • Creating Interview with the Vampire universe expansions using officially licensed art

What benefits will you receive?

Ambassadors will get:

• Early access to Interview with the Vampire prompts

• A special badge on your published content 

• Access to Insiders-Only channels

• Access to exclusive marketing materials that only Insiders can share

• Special featuring for your games & streams on the Dorian app 

• Access to Dorian team 

• Access to Dorian editorial support to level up your creations

Want to join?

Submit your application by Friday Sept 23 at 6 am PT! Insiders will be contacted on Monday the 26th.

Since the creation of the Arcana Ambassador program, we have seen some recurring questions we want to answer! Please read below to see our answers.

What is an “Ambassador”?

An Ambassador is a super-fan who has the opportunity to voice their opinions directly to the Dorian team. This is a volunteer position that anyone can apply for! Currently, the Ambassador Program is for The Arcana, but we will add members for individual FictIf stories in the future!

What does an Ambassador do?

Ambassadors have the chance to do things like: read content early to give advice on character voice, world lore; suggest superfan easter eggs; vote on illustrations, titles, and other upcoming content; be the first to know about upcoming events; discuss fan concerns with the Dorian team, and much more! 

Ambassadors also get first access to upcoming art and materials, which means they can tease what’s coming up! Keep an eye on their socials if you want these first sneak peeks!

Does the Ambassador program involve writing?

The Ambassador role is strictly an advisory one. Ambassadors do not write any content for Dorian, though we hope our amazing Ambassadors will create their own games on Dorian!

Do Ambassadors choose which characters will get additional content?

The Ambassadors advise Dorian on upcoming content but do not make unilateral decisions. Don’t worry – all Arcana love interests will get equal treatment! Ambassadors’ personal favorites will not define which characters get content. Dying to see a certain character? You can create that content yourself! We will gladly help you get started. 

How are the Ambassadors chosen?

Dorian received nearly 200 applications for Ambassadors. Ambassadors were chosen based on their answers to the application form visible here. They were required to:

• Have read (and loved) all 6 love interest routes. 

• Have extensive knowledge of the full lore, as some details are revealed in one route but not in another. 

• Have a proven status as a positive and collaborative member of the community 

What benefits do the Ambassadors get?

Ambassadors get early access, becoming the first to see upcoming content. They get to give feedback directly to the writing and art team and get a peek “behind the scenes”. The Ambassadors have access to exclusive social channels that allow them to discuss ideas together and have a direct line to Dorian. They’ll also get exclusive access to sneak peek assets to share with the greater community! 

What are the Ambassadors’ communication guidelines?

Just like anyone on Dorian or our socials, Ambassadors are required to follow community guidelines. Ambassadors are volunteers using their own social media accounts. Ambassadors are welcome to share approved sneak peek materials about upcoming content & events. It is up to each individual Ambassador if they wish to share their social media and identity with the community. 

Can I chat with the Ambassadors?

You will often see the Ambassadors on the Dorian discord and The Arcana instagram. Feel free to say hello! Keep in mind, if you have complaints or issues, the appropriate place to file those is with the Dorian team at support@dorian.live. As with all our users, Dorian has a zero tolerance policy for harassment and bullying.  

I have feedback on the Ambassador Program, how can I get in touch?

BIG NEWS! Dorian has partnered with AMC Networks!

Today, we are thrilled to announce that Dorian is partnering with AMC Networks to tap into the power of the Immortal Universe of Anne Rice! The partnership will empower millions of fans and creators to write, publish, stream, and monetize their own code-free interactive narratives using some of the most iconic IPs in the world, including Interview with the Vampire and Mayfair Witches.

AMC announced in May 2020 their acquisition of the Anne Rice catalog, which includes the Vampire Chronicles, the Lives of the Mayfair Witches series, and the crossover novels that blend the two paranormal worlds. The Walking Dead network’s new franchise will kick off Sunday, October 2 with the premiere of Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire, starring Jacob Anderson (Game of Thrones), who will play the tortured Louis de Pointe du Lac, Sam Reid (The Hunting) as his vampire maker, Lestat de Lioncourt, Bailey Bass (Avatar 2) as vampire fledgling Claudia, and Eric Bogosian (Talk Radio) as journalist Daniel Molloy. Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches series is making its exclusive debut on AMC+, the network’s premium streaming bundle, this winter, and stars Alexandra Daddario (The White Lotus) as Rowan Mayfair, a brilliant doctor who discovers she heralds from a long line of witches in the Mayfair family, along with Jack Huston (House of Gucci) as Lasher, Harry Hamlin (Mad Men) as Cortland Mayfair and Tongayi Chirisa (Palm Springs) as Ciprien.

We're also excited to announce that this partnership will allow fans and creators exclusive access to licensed art and lore to create their own interactive stories in AMC’s Immortal Universe of Anne Rice. Dorian’s code-free creation engine, monetization features, and data analysis tools allow independent creators to write, publish, and earn royalties. With genre content like Interview ranking consistently high among the Dorian community, the addition of these IPs will tap into those passions and excite audiences of both game and series. Dorian will launch Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire alongside the premiere of the AMC series on October 2 with weekly content releases, fan-generated adaptation challenges, and livestream events spanning the epic first season.

In the meantime, get ready to create your own vampire tales by registering as a creator now!
