FINALLYYYYYYYYY GOT THE LOVELY CHARGED BACKGROUND

Here to celebrate it with a visual from a potential game project that fits the aesthetic (don't think I forgot about my Gacha peeps out there)

More info and links in article!


Yes I am THAT nitpicky, I refuse to share project info here that doesn't have a suitable background

But anyways, yes! I am as much a Gachatuber as I am artist and game dev so I do have Gacha-style project idea shelved for later here and there, this being the biggest of them. So far, it only has character designs and a poorly voiced-acted pilot with crappy animation to its name (click here to watch and cringe)

So the basic synopsis goes like this: Set in a futuristic planet Earth, the story centers around a new worldwide virtual-reality technology called Bytespace. What makes this technology so special is that the player’s consciousness is connected to another artifical “base” body in Bytespace where they can fulfill every sensation of life while their real body is safe in the “real world”; essentially gifting players with a second “life”. The player can then play a variety of games from different genres, but the most popular one is the MMORPG “Metalife”, with its final boss level currently unbeaten. One group of kids specifically join Bytespace to beat that level, for it’s rumored that the victory unlocks the titular “Angel Stage” where the player’s real body will gain invulnerability.

As for the gamedev side, I have had a few options floating around for how I would want to handle this - as I have realized that the story fits actual gameplay a lot more than it would standard animation. Since this project has enough lore and interaction to be a storygame, I'm mostly thinking a hybrid VN-battle style game. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it though!

Anyways, back to work on Return to Eternity! See yall soon!

Okay, so the first 24 hours seem good....of course, the ten percent rule reared its ugly head, but the game did a little bit better than I hoped! The game has 50 followers!🙌🏼

Still some little issues to add to the update checklist...in the article below.

So for today, I am going to talk about the two tropes that provide a "standard" for the stories I tell:

"Star-crossed lovers" and "interspecies romance". Cliche as they are, you will always find them in my work no matter the setting!

More in article.

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

Too depressed and anxious to get any sleep till I finished this.... It has been tested in both Chrome and Firefox with success, and is uploaded, scheduled to publish itself in about 5 hours.

So at this point, I have less than 24 hours to get the game ready for release.
