Maybe? I'm hoping to get a demo out at least by March, but we'll see.

Zenogaias isn't in a NextFest yet, but if you're looking for a #turn-based #JRPG to play through four Episodes spanning the gaming eras, from 8-bit to HD, linked by a powerful narrative, then I hope you'll wishlist it.

Check out our retro RPG Destiny Spire in the #SteamNextFest ! Hectic take on a turn based battle system and 2 dungeons to complete. Should take about 1 hour to complete. Full game is around 30 hours of retro goodness

I've somehow been making steady progress on Zenogaias while playing Final Fantasy Tactics and working full-time. I'm loving the voice work in Tactics, and I'm thinking of posting about a call for VA on Casting Call (it'll be an unpaid gig) for those looking to add to their portfolios.

Avalon Lee | Zenogaias @avalonlee.bsky.social · 1d

Loving the look of this! Going to be keeping an eye on this one for sure.

This is looking great!

Avalon Lee | Zenogaias @avalonlee.bsky.social · 7d

There's so much I get to say in Zenogaias that's personal, about those we love, our collective fears, what we stand for, what we accept, and how our identities shape our reality.

And, I get to say all of that while having a ton of fun designing gameplay, locations, and bosses.

I love game dev.

It's #WishlistWednesday and here's a little update on Zenogaias as well. I've got a lot done the past two weeks, particularly with Episode IV. While I may be a bit quiet, it's because I'm deep in dev.
