Merry Christmas from Acre Shore (an exciting and terrifying update)


The most festive time of the year is upon us and I come bearing good news! Acre Shore is past its 'boring core code' phase and I'm into the real meat of development.

At this stage, I could technically compile the game and continue my work by editing the narrative file the game reads from. Missing asset errors aside, the game would function.

At this stage of development, I don't mind telling you that I'm intimidated by the mammoth task before me. I have so much story to interpret into engine readable syntax, so many art assets to produce, so many sound effects to produce, and so much music to compose. I am exhausted just thinking about how much work I have to do. It will feel like perpetual crunch time.

Incidentally, if you feel like helping me eat during this time, please consider supporting my Patreon (where you can also get extra sneak peeks and merch) https://www.patreon.com/lord_nexust

Anyway, here are some character sketches!

Meet the cast (so far)!

Screenshot Saturday!

Going Down, psychological horror RPG about difficult choices and memories best forgotten on an elevator ride.

Both the game and the TV show of The Last of Us have been praised for their depiction of Bill. In 2013, GLAAD described the game's Bill as being "as deeply flawed but wholly unique a gay character found in any storytelling medium this year."

Loading and reading scripts now works! This means, not only will it be much easier for me to make episodes, but there is now a very real possibility of player-made episodes!

This week's #FanArtFriday celebrates the release of #SecretOfTheMimic!

Accept the quest to get started.

"All of it... amounts to this..."

We've been quiet but busy. Time for an update!

Michelle stars in the neon survival horror game Sorry We're Closed (which was published by @akuparagames .)

Still reeling from a bad breakup with her ex-girlfriend, Michelle needs to break the curse placed on her by a demon known as The Duchess.

How are babies made? Well, I don't know! but I do know how my characters are made. First, they start as sketches like these! (also, sneaky peek at some new characters)
