Somber

A controversial decision


Hey there, I got someone to test play somber the other day and I wasn’t 100% happy with the results. Rather than endlessly tweaking and messing around something until I’m sorta happy with it I’m going to let Somber be for a while. It will have taken another month to complete a demo at this rate anyway.

I’m going to make a short, experimental game. With an experimental art style and such. Something that personally scares me (up until now Somber isn’t scary to me or anyone who played it).

If by the end of this week, this project turns out fun to play, and scary. I’ll put somber on halt to expand on this new project.

If it doesn’t work out, I’ll try to fix up Somber as best as I can.
