I finished my game finally!! It's called SMiLE

SMiLE by Jane Wheeler

'Maybe one day, one of these worlds will be the one that survives.'

This project has taken me so long that admittedly it feels more like a reflection of who i was four years ago or so than who I am now. But hey, I soldiered on and completed it, even when it seemed certain that it would end up confined to the great dustbin of Overambitious First RPG Maker Projects.

This game is a nifty little adventure about trying to save the world from destruction even when that may not actually be possible. It's quirky and wacky and dare I say even a tad EarthBound-inspired. I'd tell you I worry that it's cringe, but no one wants to hear that from me, including the people who are going to think it's cringe.

What I hope it is, is funny and heartfelt and charming and maybe a little unsettling at times. It's the work of someone learning to make games and that's very obvious. I hope that's a feature and not a bug. One advantage of being so slow is that, while modern generative AI didn't exist when I started development, nowadays we're so awash in slop that things that look like they were made by flawed, amateurish humans feel more special. Or I hope so, at any rate.

Also, the game and soundtrack are both available for free! I hope they provide excellent value-for-money

A musical preview of my upcoming RPG Maker game "SMiLE" (releasing some time this year!). These are best heard in the context of the game, but I'll share them here anyway cause I'm proud of them.
