Upgrading "What am I looking at?" to "What am I looking at (RTX ON)". Sometimes it's easier to make weird stuff rely on your low-poly modeling skills, making it more detailed raises more questions. #gamedesign #horrorgame #indiegame

Haven't been posting recently because I'm deep in thought with creating new environments. The remake and sequel working to benefit each other nicely here. It wouldn't be possible to prototype the remake like this without years of refining the sequel. #gamedesign #horrorgame

The Remake puts the vale into Eldervale. New enemy types encountered here will need to be burned using matches to kill them permanently.

It's-a-me, Samantha! Even though you probably thought I was just a statue or an enemy. I'm in fact your childhood best friend who has just the charming amount of cultish tendencies.

Excuse me, sir! Can you point me in the direction of the nearest vending machine? Sure you're okay? You look kind of under the weather, sir.

My unannounced project about befriending/investigating a quirky music band by entering their subconscious and hanging out day after day in sleazy bar. It's gonna get weird.
Inspirations: Persona, Alice Madness Returns, Psychonauts, Lollipop Chainsaw.

If you thought the Delaney Institution from the first game was bad, after being abandoned for a decade... It's predecessor, the Freesia Conservatory kept it's secrets since the 19th century. Lore galore...

Eldervale received a free expansion pack in late 2020, called Deep Reserves. It's a replayable mode with it's own progression system, seperate from the main campaign. You can take multiple paths and set your goals each run, earning rewards. #horrorgame #indiedev

Progressing my graphic design skills from "Eww" to "Meh", and finally "Okay" in 8 short years.
If you are doing everything solo, it takes a long time to improve in each aspect of making a game. Never give up, no one can take away the expertise you gain along the way!

Nothing like coming to terms with your tragic past during a car ride with a stranger.

I took 4-5 years to like what you see reflecting in (and around) the mirror. Not even that bad considering most of us never get there. #Eldervale2, #gamedev, #horrorgame

How could these be screenshots of an upcoming game? If you think a surreal adventure game about entering the subconscious of a music band and solving mysteries in the style of Persona and Twin Peaks, then you are just silly.

Year 1 vs. Year 5 of designing anime/cartoony characters for game development. I like how it shows both an increase in skill level and my declining mental state. Love you #vroid #vroidstudio!

- 97% of traffic from torrent sites. 🔪😂
Not even mad, just wish they'd keep it updated. I don't want bad publicity!

Making a third person survival horror game as solodev is not as much time consuming as it is life consuming. Still, one of the better circles of hell.

During development of the first game, had so much fun with cultish symbols that I decided to invent a numbering system. It does have a logic to it. The final puzzle on Hard difficulty expects the player to figure this out. Yes, I touch grass very often, why do you ask. #Eldervale #GameDev #Horror
