I’m back to working on the game for a bit!! I’ve decided to revert back to the traditional rpgmaker size. Fullscreen felt like it was too much for the simplicity I had so sorry if that turns you off XD

There are a lot of variables to work with, which I’m slowly….slowly working on

[hikaru-i]

here’s how it looks so far with the new edits and overused trash joke

Spent a few hours implementing variables for stats that I have 0 idea are balanced or not because it’s my first time doing this lol

But otherwise we got -most interactions in -intro  -some busts  -more text to show how much of a sad soggy noodle Eve is

gonna work on it more tomorrow :D

A small little thing in terms of the game progress! I have gotten back into implementing the mechanics and events. Got tons to...

[hikaru-i]

some progress!! on Choices- a game I’m working on in RPGmaker about anxiety and choices 

I can only show the home screen for now but! I’ve pretty much implemented a clock, which will advance. I’ve also revamped and am still in the process of revamping- the UI and controls so that it’ll be WASD and then E for menu

Uhhh also need to redo sprites and tilesets, and I’m going to go with the non-pixelated look in black and white since it feels less jarring to look at.

In terms of the actual stats and mechanics, I’ve plotted out the various activities I want to add and the status that it affects, as well as the actual “states” you can fall into (hungry, sleep deprived, etc). I just need to figure out how to implement it all so it’s balanced?? I think?

also actually don’t know what to do for the dreams....but I’m thinking about it as I go haha

some old old sketches for Choices (game) that I'm probably gonna scrap

games are great! - new project

I’m gonna try to be active here again and post and stuff! since my tumblr and twitter are linked I dont have to go back and forth too much

I have a new? (I started it 2 yrs ago not gonna lie) game project I’m working on and inspired by @ihasllamas​ imma try to keep a devlog of sorts using this blog!

It’s called Choices; Death is the Only Ending

Eve struggles with depression, anxiety and many deep and dark emotions. One day, she begins to have weird dreams, forcing them to make moral choices. Their actions in real life can alter these dreams. But how? and why?

You have 7 days to “live” and to survive these dreams. You will be able to do multiple things, but every action takes up time, and affects your moods, reactions and thoughts. 

Itch.io page

Anyways, this game was originally intended to be a short very dark story about Eve and their dreams. However, I'm planning a new direction,  which hopefully I can work on and get a demo or smth out. It is very odd gamifying something this sensitive of a topic, but I will to address it properly.

There's gonna be quite a bit going on that I want to implement but I'm not sure if I will be able to (here's the list)

- a time system, where your actions take up time - lots of choices - a well being/mental health meter, which is impacted by various elements such as hunger, sleep, motivation and more - dreams

I will update as I work on stuff!!

[hikaru-i]

✧ I am Found - DEMO 

Now that I’ve spiffied up my WIP page, I finally have a place to post my visual novel I’ve been working on! Originally made for a game jam, I liked how the story was turning out, so I would love to finish it. There’s a 15-20 minute demo available below if you want to check it out. I’m super thankful for all the amazing and critical feedback and positive reception I’ve received on it so far. Hope you enjoy this little story!

You’ve travelled for a long time. Long enough to forget many things, but all in hopes of finding something important you thought you’ve lost years ago. Can you be whole again?

I am Found is a visual novel created in RPG Maker MV which follows a lone drifter travelling across their ruined world exploring hope, self-love, and life while finding themself. Will you see their journey to its end?
