Wait! Life is Beautiful! – Progress update #6

This week we’d like to share what we have been working on and give you some fun work-in-progress teasers!

#DevUpdate #SuicidePrevention


Hello everyone!

If you follow us on our social media pages, you've probably seen some of these, but we're freshening things up with some new content, as well as some explanations on what you're seeing!

Animated trailer

First of all, let us start with the animated trailer's storyboard:

In this trailer, we aim to dive deep into the soul of the game’s protagonist (Will) to show you his feelings and thoughts. We started work on this quite a while ago, so you can look forward to seeing more in the near future. If you’d like to get an idea of what direction we are working towards, our main inspiration was this video: https://vimeo.com/267392220

Demo

We’ve already introduced you to several characters that you’ll find in the game. Here’s the police officer who’s very suspicious about Will’s endeavor on the Suicide Bridge.

This gif is taken from the early on in the game, so here the policeman simply warns Will, then leaves.

But what if the deaths continue and Will is almost always the last person to see them alive?

Looking to the future

Also as it was mentioned in the previous weekly update, we’re working on an article that interviews the developer. That is still being worked on, but stay tuned as it is shaping up to have a lot of interesting information in it!

Thank you for being with us,
Your #WLIB Team!

Do you remember the dream that we shared last Saturday? This dream is a direct reflection of Will's struggles to save the people on the bridge. In the dream, he has to catch people as they fall from the bridge, just like he tries to do during the day.

Did you know that we're on several platforms? You can also find #WLIB on Steam and Itch io! Are there any platforms that we've missed that you'd like to see us on? #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt #SuicidePrevention

Though we focus more on dialogue and text to tell the story of our game, the scenes also play a big role. What sort of interactions do you think Will will have when he comes here?

One of the characters that you will eventually encounter in #WLIB is the Puppet Man. He doesn't know anymore if he's a human or a puppet. Most importantly, he doesn't like kids. He never did. #ScreenshotSaturday #PixelArt

Here's a screenshot from the beginning of the game that you'll be able to see only after the whole game is out. For now if you play the demo you'll start on the Suicide Bridge right away. #ScreenshotSaturday #WLIB #SuicidePrevention
