Small update on Phobia's second chapter!


I know I've been very silent over the past few weeks about the sequel, but I'm not one to post a bunch of teasers for the game every few days or so, because I just personally think that teasers should be more for development milestones, though I also do think sometimes a little update every once in a while never hurts!

I'm going to be perfectly honest here, the game is going very slowly, but it is going surely, and I can't wait to share more in the future! Development for The Awakening was very similar to this just last year! Sometimes I had a week where I worked on it nonstop, and sometimes I had a week where I just couldn't bring myself to doing it at the moment. This added with me getting a job (an overnight one!) after I finished The Awakening, it's made things slower for me, but I'm always thinking about how I can improve and add to the game even when I'm not working on it physically!

Speaking of The Awakening, June 28th is its original completion day! There'll likely be more of a bigger thing I'll do on its Gamejolt release day, which is on August 27th!

Back to the sequel, don't ever be nervous about the game being cancelled. The only time that could truly happen is if I lost everything, but even then, knowing myself, I'd probably later pick it back up and just start over again from scratch. I tried idea after idea just to get that first game finished since late 2019, and I've even said "I'm just going to stop and make different things instead since nothing's working out for me" multiple times during 2020. But I am determined to finish making this series of fangames no matter how slow it goes! It's not because I feel like I have to, it's because I really want to!

Just finished playing REANIMAL and oh my god this game was disturbing.

Loved it from start to finish and it’s up there as one of my favorite horror games I have ever played.

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

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.

Happy birthday @itsizsgames !!!

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

Have a sneak peak at Showman's redesign and massive texture improvement!

The redesigns will be used in the future projects going forwards, including a "2.0" edition of The Awakening, which is possible to happen sometime after SHOWMAN'S: Helen releases!

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.

. . .

SHOWMAN! 1!1!1!

To make up for all of this madness have a look at the redesigned endoskeleton model!
