Lots of options - I can make larger figure sculptures or doll heads, etc. :)

Thanks! 🙂 Maybe some of them, actually. I started this project so I could sculpt faces over the skulls, but they became more detailed and the project became more involved than I originally planned.

Yay~ it's always nice when someone notices. I wanted to make a point and click with more visual novel features, because I like how adventure games feel like an interactive storybook and thought it paired well.
From my game, Drown the Bride

This was innovative! What I like about VNs and P&C adventure games in one title?! Mad sorcery, says I!

A scene on a beach with pixel art graphics. It depicts two characters speaking on the right hand side of the screen in front of a cabin. On the left hand side of the screen are two portraits: both young women, one with light brown hair and a sad expression, the other blond and with a confident poise.

I want to make games faster but not with AI. I enjoy optimising my processes, and learning to make better decisions. So that I improve as a game dev.

There's a theme to some of my Steam reviews and that theme is that I am bad at marketing 🤣 #gamedev

List of parts of steam reviews:

Very good, the other reviews do a better job at explaining it all. And why it is so good. I just wanted to post a review so the game can get a higher score, and hopefully attract a bigger audience. Buy it!

This visual novel is a very fine work of fiction and deserve more attention. The art is (sic) shing and characters are very well written. Also I keep thinking from time to time about...

Going to the game itself, it's criminally overlooked and underrated. It uses 20s-like stylistics couple with a supernatural story about demons, lurking in the margins of the world that stopped believing in their existence (you can think of them as vampires, as they have similar....)

I am honestly surprised not many people seem to have played Tell a Demon. How in depth the story seems to go. coupled with the deeply established universe, intriguing story, and multiple routes that change how the character acts and their motivations is something that...

I mean, oops, it's not all ephemeral.. those pendants will probably look good a hundred years from now and won't yellow like the paper

Previous tweet - the ephemera is all stuff I've made over the years for this story world - originally Patreon-only, like the hand-made enamel pendants my mother and I collaborated on, some vintage-style embroidery, clips from a fictional newspaper and so on.
