Somos um punhado de neurodivergentes com uma necessidade insuportável de materializar ideias que os goblins berram no palácio da mente. Virou tanto memória muscular que talvez a essa altura seja mais difícil parar de fazer jogos do que continuar, mesmo que nem sempre dê pra colher os melhores frutos

🏋️‍♂️ Unbreakable 💪 (still in development)

A full-length VN of romance/ comedy/ drama/ conspiracy about your new life after enrolling in a school full of youths with superhuman physical abilities and all-too-human problems (yes, you can kiss them).

In partnership with @kuating.bsky.social 🎨
Illustration of two muscular characters facing off on a basketball court. On the left, Laran, a shirtless young man with dark skin, short black hair tipped with purple, and black shorts, holds a red dodgeball under his arm while leaning forward confidently. On the right, Amy, a tall blonde woman with a braid, wearing a red sports top and black leggings, presses her forehead against Laran’s in a competitive but playful stare-down. Both characters are visibly strong and defined. The background shows a clear blue sky, a basketball hoop above, and blurred onlookers watching from the sidelines. Illustration of Amy, a muscular blonde woman with piercing blue eyes from the game Unbreakable, throwing a powerful punch toward the viewer in a dramatic comic book and anime-inspired style. She wears a red sports bra, her defined abs and arm muscles accentuated by heavy shading and dynamic lighting. Her hair sweeps back as she leans into the strike, expression sharp and focused. On the left, the dark silhouette of a large opponent looms, while speed lines and stark contrasts highlight the explosive impact of the scene. Screenshot from the game Unbreakable showing a dialogue scene in a school library. On the left, Dáska, a woman with short black hair, a white lab coat, and a coffee cup, looks unimpressed. On the right, a student with brown skin, pink streaks in her tied-up hair, and a confident grin wears a school uniform with a tie, suspenders, and a crest on her shirt. The dialogue box at the bottom reads: ‘DÁSKA: Wipe that smug grin off your face. You’re still in detention.’ The background shows rows of tables, chairs, and bookshelves, with warm sunset light streaming in. Artwork from the game Unbreakable showing four main characters standing together. From left to right: Frey, a tall young man with pale skin, wavy red hair, and a serious expression, wearing a loose yellow shirt with green trim and laced front. Next is Amy, a muscular blonde woman with bright blue eyes, smiling confidently with her tongue out, wearing blue overalls over a red-and-white striped shirt. Beside her is Sara, a girl with dark skin and voluminous curly hair, looking surprised while holding an open book; she wears a pink sweater with the word ‘Mo…’ partially visible. On the far right is Laran, a lean young man with tan skin, short black hair with purple highlights, glasses, and a plaid shirt, leaning forward with a determined expression. The characters are drawn in a colorful, anime-inspired style with a blurred school-like background.

We made this one for a jam in 2022, it’s free!

🔥 Fire of the Rebellion III ⚔️

A retro micro-tactical JRPG. Defend the city walls against the relentless forces of darkness that seek to take over the world. We just hope you don’t have to run into Ricardo 🙏

🚩 bit.ly/playfor3
Parody mockup of a retro Nintendo Entertainment System game box for ‘Fire of Rebellion III.’ The front cover shows a hand-drawn, sepia-toned battlefield scene with armored characters carrying weapons, walking toward a giant crucifix-like monument amid ruins. The title is in large pixelated Japanese characters with a red and orange gradient, followed by the Roman numeral III. The spine has the same title vertically. The back cover features the tagline: ‘A classic lost in time. Tales of war and love forged in the fire of rebellion...’ along with four pixel art screenshots of tactical RPG gameplay and menus. Logos for Nintendo, the NES, and the ‘Official Nintendo Seal’ are included, imitating authentic 1990s box art. This is a fan-made parody, not an actual NES release. Screenshot from Fire of Rebellion III, a retro-style tactical RPG. The screen shows a grid-based battlefield with pixel art characters: knights, wizards, and monsters. The highlighted character is Li’Vian, a dragon with 35/35 HP, STR 7, DEF 4, MOV 2, INT 5, and RES 5. The menu on the left lists available actions: Slash, Breath, Bash, Wait, and Go back. The description box at the bottom reads ‘Deals damage to close units,’ with DMG 5 and no cost. Other units are scattered across the grid, including purple blob-like enemies, horned warriors, and blue-robed figures. A gray Nintendo Entertainment System cartridge with a custom label for the parody game ‘Fire of Rebellion III.’ The label shows the sepia battlefield artwork with a crucifix-like monument and characters in armor, along with the game’s title in large red Japanese characters and the Roman numeral III. The cartridge is resting on a table among other old game cartridges, styled to look like an authentic retro release. Screenshot from Fire of Rebellion III, a retro-style parody tactical RPG. The screen shows Ricardo the Wizard, a hooded figure in purple robes with a glowing red orb, sitting in a graveyard-like setting with crosses around him. The dialogue box at the bottom reads: ‘I, Ricardo The Wizard, have a proposition for you.’ The pixel art style imitates dark fantasy RPGs of the NES era.
