A small #sidescroller #horror inspired by me getting sick at the start of the year and binging on Atlantic Canadian folklore! I call it Escaping Ankou! Currently in Alpha.

Minor Update: the Morality mechanic will replace the Health mechanic. Basically, you get a game over if you make too many bad decisions. You wanna make good decisions to keep your bar high. If your bar gets too low, you lose and get the Game Over.

Okay, I finally got a part for another project done, so I can focus on this for the day. I’m going to carefully draw the background assets for the kitchen. I still made sure to darken my room for a better view. Process details are in the article below.

Hello, Everyone. I have two announcements:

The first is that I'm going to focus on another summer project and summer job to cover the costs of health matters. The Inferno Gang will not be shelved, but progress will be slower.

Got an idea for another game recently. One where we're underwater and get to see some fishies! Might have some collectathon elements. Funfact: I used Yi from the Nine Sols music video by Collage as a reference for the rough sprite.

Updates:

Polished the Ability Function

Added Diablo's Fire Fan 9000!

Added slippery ice

Added Health Dummies

Took out Level Select Menu

#Mabon update video. Forgot to post it here last Fall

I mainly put my games on GD.games but I'm thinking of seeing if I can come back to this place if I can mage posting between several sites

I wanted to try custom controls for my games, but it was always on the Options Menu To-Do list, the last things I did. I decided to I'll add it to the Pause Menu so people can change it anytime. Right now I'm moving it to the UI's Layout

My #Yule video from 2025. I talk more about my prototypes, specifically my #2DHorror games.

This is a video of a short #sidescroller #horror with a Timer mechanic. When would it be a great time to play this kind of game? (before bed, after work, while waiting for something, or another time?) Comment down below! It's for course research
