Another dark ambient soundtrack piece. "Choked by the Waters of Madness" is supposed to be even darker and more intense than "The Empty Prayer". Fair warning is given, especially to those who are afraid of the ocean/water.


This particular track should be playing when Erik visits Perros, which is a seaside town. At that point in time, Erik's sanity is already dangerously low, and his moods are much more fleeting than before. When Erik witnesses something that makes his mood drop, this track begins to play.

Representing the superimposition of Erik drowning in his feelings onto the presence of the nearby ocean, this one features boiling, crashing waves, dark synths, and some field recordings (particularly the sounds of a person gargling - washing their throat with water), all interwoven.

Devlog 20th September:

Repainted the TV screen. Fixed the code so that the mouse input goes through to the tilemap, then realized I don't need it. Fun days.

I played #HollowKnight and got a lot of inspiration from it. A great example of how to work with parallaxes. Did you know that they actually used 3D space to build their scenes? I wonder if I can do the same thing in Godot Engine 4 for OGLS!

Hello, Christine.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

This is partially why I wanted to switch to Tilemaps. They are capable of stuff like THIS. Now I'm able to recreate any sort of lighting, any time of day, within any location that I create.

We played Dark Sanctuary with my orchestra!

Guess who finally played Hollow Knight!

I just can't have enough of this baby, so I drew them a pretty poster! 🥺♥😊

Now that I'm in Master's degree, I'm considering pitching OGLS as my exam project for the autumn semester. For more info, read the article!

In other news, NPC system finally works in 3D. At least, the planning/moving/stopping parts.

Streamed a little recording session - working on a 'medieval' version of Radiohead's Everything In Its Right Place.

The first draft of a 3D scene made out of 2D objects, very rough, very saturated (i was light testing), very much representative of the parallax I wanted to achieve. What do you think?
