its linear, and the only mechanic is walking/interaction, so the focus is squarely on environments, characters, music, writing etc. it will have a lot of powerful moments.
i think people who liked me for SCS will be on board with this one; it also focuses on dreams but in a very different way

enough times passed that its not recency bias for me to say this was my best and deepest game, but its also the least accessible by a mile
it's the only one i can still have fun playing as the dev

Eternal King out on Steam YouTube video by doritoburrito

all my games on sale, but id like to point out this specifically
youtu.be/VGMsbXDef-I
looking back, i think its the tightest and most arcadey game i did even tho epoch has the permadeath
also if ur one of the 2 people who beat epoch, you play as the final boss of that game here

also just to clarify, when i write 'digital actors' i meant the chibi character and their portraits in the dialogue box being the creators medium through which they act, not scanning and mo-capping kevin james

some thoughts on the relationship of narrative and mechanics, and where my work may be headed

literacy? wdym bro? yeah obviously you gotta grind the 1st season before the difficulty ramps up, thats good writing. the Screenplay Loop didn't really Click for me until 'Chris and the Greedy Gambler'
have it start at season 6 quality? how would you understand the subtext?

yea its probably one of the most scalable games ever made

this is interesting to me because the avenue i explore in attempts to iterate on it are implementing shmup design, which is interesting in its own right, but thats technically a side path on the upgrade tree.
i say all this cos i have an fps pet project rn. it will be secret until it ever drops.

it has similar sort of body-blocking dynamics, and with a lot of enemies the kind of pre-emptive shooting to snuff attacks, with that feeling of having to watch startups to prioritise who to shoot.
its that sorta gameplay just faster and bigger. even with mouselook thats still the underlying dynamic

just realised that doom is resi before resi
tank controls, movement is awkward making it hard to avoid damage, so resources are important, backtracking forces u to engage multiple times.
i think if a dev wants to iterate on doom they may need to think survival horror instead of fps or twinstick

in general im just doing stuff when i feel like now, instead of sweating full time on a single project.
idk when or if this game will be completed

im p much done with vidya now, moved onto writing and started this year which is going well.
but apparently cant keep away from a little devving, made this over the past 2 days

my idea is an arcade physics platformer in the vein of umihara kawase

not devving now so able to start drawing for fun again

patch is out to add invert

i was 2 months into a different project, then suddenly had one of those dreams where you're playing like the best game ever, the sort youd have as a kid
i thought about it and was very excited when i realised i was capable of approximating it.
so for my taste at least this is The game

ty very much for giving a shoutout, its much appreciated 🙏, i hope the players can get into it and enjoy it

leaving steam reviews would also help a lot, as well as anyone sharing gameplay so more players can get an idea of what its like. the whole things been p much in the dark since launch

Fanart of three characters from the indie game "Twilight Epoch". It's very interesting.

concept for an unused book 2 boss, the only cut content i wish could have made it
'keef lawless' was a rockstar leader of the marauders, a whole plot-thread and duo of mad max levels that had to be cut for pacing.
only the first stage was made, and is 1-6 in the final game

theres also an element that timers are often counter-incentives mechanically, and from my experience players struggle with ambiguous gameplans. ive also had criticism of 'it doesnt let me play the way i want to', so i guess people can have false expectations of the 'mechanical window' so to speak

99% sure that im doing 2d games from now on, testing workflows n stuff. very exciting to be able to do fully handcrafted environments with no technical restrictions.
only question is which game im doing next
#gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #art

prototyping
still not sure whether to do 2d or 3d for future games

im leaning towards 3d because epoch was quite messy and i want to refine its ideas in a simpler game
#indiedev #gamedev #東方Project #touhou

thinking of ways to translate the autoscroller snowballing dynamic of shmups into 3d action games.
epoch had enemies teleporting to chase but i feel like theres a more elegant solution.

its harder for actors to navigate 3d space so they tend to have more static and deterministic level design
