Coming Along


Hello!
So this game is a random thought I had that I turned into a story, and then got really excited about. At the time of writing this, I’m actually in the last quarter of development. So I thought that I should take a moment to really say what this game is about.

The premise is that you a lost soul, trapped in Purgatory by the Keeper of Souls until you complete your punishment and find a way to move on from whatever is keeping you there. However, you become less than enthusiastic about this when the Keeper of Souls tells you that your task is to judge other lost souls and choose where they belong in the afterlife - Heaven, Purgatory, or Hell.
This game will feature nine unique cases where a person was convicted of a crime during their life, and is now trapped in a cell in Purgatory until they are assigned a permanent dwelling, by you.
As the player, you will provided with the police report that was accurate at the time of the death of the soul you are judging, and then speak to the soul for their side of the story, and then have to decide from there on your own.

If you have any questions about the game play, or the development, or the soundtrack or anything, feel free to leave me a comment or contact me at

Thanks for checking out the demo if you do, and thanks for reading!

Did you know that today is #InternationalJazzDay? 🎷😎

No? 😯 Well, we couldn't pass up this date!

And what better to celebrate this day than #Pecaminosa #OST? 🎷

Let us know what you think about it and have a great weekend!

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist

Here's a Fredbear sprite i made in Aseprite! I'm pretty proud of this!

(Btw, sorry for the double post! I'll try to post less)

Got some fun collectibles in our game, Path of Kami!
