Still messing with the design for Hollis..She either looks too mean and skinny and consumptive, or too wholesome and nice! Just can’t strike the balance!

Customising this charity shop jacket with some patches, stitched this together from some reclaimed digital camoflague material and an old gits shirt. #gits #sac #ghostintheshell #menwhomake

Well, it's a sad day, but we all knew it had to come eventually. It's time to say goodbye to my gaming setup as we have all come to know and love it. Why, you might well ask? Are you going to grow up and get rid of your toys, stop being a ridiculous man-baby and face up to your responsibilities? Of course not. It's just getting bigger! Muwahahaha 😃🤓 #gaming #xboxone #ps4 #gamecube #dreamcast #segasaturn #retrogames #retrogaming

Making an Uncivil War

Uncivil War.

A simple, short, British RPG/Visual Novel. One man’s road to from London to West Wales.

Eight hours of narrative two dimensional storytelling with voice acting and a great soundtrack.

The bastard child of V For Vendetta, The Road, The Death of Grass and 1984.

Dystopia and near-future science-fact through a lens of alcoholism and madness.

Deus Ex in the present, Blade Runner without the androids and the neon. No ghosts, no superheroes.  No powers, no magic.  No punk, no cyber, no decking, no matrix, no power, no internet.  Nothing that you can’t find in your house.  No guns, no swords. No pirates, no Vikings, no Vampires, no zombies. No Johnny Depp.  The Thing without the monsters.  

That’s the plan anyway...

This is my diary of making the game.  Or possibly just driving myself mad, 32 pixels at a time.
