SHOWMAN'S: The Awakening

Devlog for Showman's: The Awakening!


Hey all. It's been quite a while.

Over the past two weeks or so, I've been the most productive I have been since somewhere around May 2021 when I was working on Phobia: The Awakening, before I even considered releasing the game to the public. That's about three years ago now, which is insane.

I have a HUGE on off relationship with these games at this point, but what I've done for Showman's: The Awakening makes Phobia look older than it actually is. Granted, they are both the same exact game, but Showman's takes everything Phobia has and only makes it better. Some characters are more fun, some are more intimidating, there's small (and major) details that are unlike anything I've ever made, better environments and so, so much more.

While I am trying my best to keep things optimized, I'm also making the game more detailed in the process, so it may end up not running as well for those with weaker PCs. There's unfortunately not much I can do about that, but I'm sure it'll run just fine for most of you all!

I still have no idea when it'll release, as there's still quite a lot for me to do, but I'm aiming for some time this year and I'm pretty confident in that, but of course I can't guarantee anything. It gets done when it's done!

Next up

Giving Unreal Engine 4 another shot with a much more open mind so I don't fall into Tutorial Hell and get discouraged. So far so good! Feel quite a bit more confident in using it as of right now.

Trying to improve how I draw humans (which I rarely do) so I can give myself some actual reference for their updated 3D models and to give them some nicer stylization.

Also yes this is a concept sketch of Dean’s new design.

SEE YOU TOMORROW.

SHOWMAN! 1!1!1!

showman's is just gonna stay as fangames.

i am genuinely sorry for how messy this stuff has been. this has been such a rocky road for me and i could go on and on about it all but it's not really necessary tbh.

Happy birthday @itsizsgames !!!

I didn't want to miss the opportunity on drawing something for you, this is a little rushed sadly

Quick drawing of a slight redesign that I’m actually very happy with weee.

SHOWMAN'S: Long Hours

Now named SHOWMAN’S: The Shadow!

What will happen with it?

A joke I made with @Sillylilman that turned into a good idea for a drawing

Nightmare Mark

Big and important update on the overall SHOWMAN'S series.
