Hey everyone, this is Vinny! I don’t post about DD too often, but my New Years resolution was to change that, so here I am! Dark Deception gone through quite a lot of changes since the last time I wrote here. The biggest change is the addition of Nikson, the guy behind the fantastic FNAF fan game, TJOC: Story Mode. Nikson and I have been putting in a lot of time. We both juggle a lot of other obligations, so it can be tricky to put in as many hours as we want to. I think the biggest thing holding DD’s development back before was finding a programmer that had skill and gave a f@*!. It was easy to find one of those traits, but not both. My background is art, animation & game design. Nikson definitely cares and that has made all the difference. He is also a pretty good lighter. We are both very committed to keeping the quality of the game at a very high level and that brought about the second biggest change: we rebuilt Dark Deception in UE4. The more powerful game engine has made a huge difference and allowed us to really flesh out the world of Dark Deception to deliver on the story of the game. It’s unfortunate that I have to keep using the Unity demo on this page for the moment, but we will definitely start showing the UE build around at shows soon (E3, PAX, etc). Hopefully some of you are around to give it a try.

I am also going to start posting videos on Glowstick’s Youtube channel. I’m not sure what exactly they will be about yet, but I will think of something DD related. I welcome any (respectful) requests & suggestions :).
