A dark shape, a wooded clearing, a disappearing ship.
A tin cup whistling on a string. Rabbits gathered in a torn dress.
What do you do when a cryptic floppy disk arrives in the mail for a job you never applied for? Who is Henry Combs? Does he speak in prophecies or fever dreams? What does he want, and what did he lose?
Great Gold Bird, Great Dark Yawn is a first person magical realist adventure game exploring the mythologies we build around people, liminal spaces, and the uncanny.
Our story is set in Austin, TX: home of mom and pop roadside museums, extreme yard art, and “keeping it weird.” Aesthetically, we're layering textures of 2D and 3D evironments, found footage of home movies, and hand-painted watercolor cutscenes to create a surreal, dreamlike environment.
Oh you know, just some last minute game additions from our Derek Van Gieson... wonder what he's cooking up with these sketches? We are SO CLOSE you guys!
From the outtakes pile: "ghost animals staging a backyard rendition of the Cherry Orchard." haha
But seriously, sorry for the long radio silence you guys, but we are now officially in CRUNCH TIME!! Final turn in of all our assets is just a month away!!
Sorry we've been a little radio silent, recently! We've stepped up our production pace, and are heavy in the fog of tweaking final writing/voiceovers/sound design/music! But, we did find this washed out polaroid just laying around...
Jane loves to play "would you still love me if?" w/ David, who thinks it's the worst game ever!
SO let's play! Would you still love your partner/significant other if they became an octopus once weekly, at random- and you had to rescue them when they did?
Aw, the humble TRS-80! David uses it because he's perhaps a little paranoid (and secretly nostalgic for old technology?) But, as the enigmatic Joseph Heller sates: "just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you." (art: Travis Schmidt)
Is that a pirate radio station hosted by a multidimensional spectral DJ?? Who can say! Courtesy of Derek Van Gieson. <3
Holllly smokes, you guys! We broke 10,000 followers over the weekend- and we could hardly even believe it! Thanks so much to Gamejolt for all the support, and to all of you for the love! We’re cutting a gameplay trailer now and should have it very soon!
Mystery train... with a few more characters. You'll see their faces soooon!
Our cast of characters keeps growing larger!
Who knew Shawn's previous goofy doodle would lead Derek Van Gieson to this!
