For Emery's Original Script Turns 1!


Sort of. The last modified date for the playwriting assignment titled “Germaine’s Epic” (working title, but it’s still cheesy) was on 3rd December, but the file was created on 17th September.

It’s quite interesting to see how my own work evolves into something else, so I’ll share an excerpt from the original play (Act 1 Scene 1), which can give you an idea about how much I had to modify in order to fit the game genre:

GERMAINE
I think we lost them. (laughs) I think we lost them for good.

(Aside)
Death is one son of a bitch. It’s a force that seems to catch you by surprise. It’s worse when it makes its presence known while you’re having fun. Me and Emery were tight - no - ARE tight. So when I caught word that there was a witch doctor who could revive and immortalise the dead some part outside of town, I had to give it a shot. I can’t let poor Emery rot inside the columbarium while there’s still so many things to do on Earth. No FOMO!

GERMAINE walks to the RECEPTIONIST and hands over 2 ID cards.

GERMAINE
One room for 2 please, just for the weekend.

RECEPTIONIST
Is the other guest present?

The scene freezes, EMERY walks slowly upstage in shabby clothes and a pale face, gives a huge sigh, and then stands next to GERMAINE.

GERMAINE
(places the urn on the counter and slings arm on EMERY)
Right here!

The RECEPTIONIST gives a puzzled look.

GERMAINE
Just bill everything under my name. It’ll be a nice weekend getaway for two best friends, right Emery?

EMERY
(Lethargically)
Mmmmmhmmmmm…

(Truth be told, I died a little on the inside knowing I used “No FOMO” in a script. But I wanted to bring out Germaine’s obnoxiousness.)

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.

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

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)

Our Japanese themed game released yesterday on Gamejolt + Itch io if anyone would like to check it out! :) You play as a spirit of a japanese wolf.

A calm and quiet day.. Made surreal by the feeling of finding an elven building in the mountains, and wondering of its purpose and story. I built this elven style house and it was my first attempt at something like this, but what do you think?

I remade my main character, what do you think? :)
