ABOUT

Game dev, artist, and composer. Lover of psychological horror, thrillers, dramas, and various forms of games and media. Huge fan also of work that explores some kind of meta. Really enjoy contemporary, historical, and experimental art also. Fascination with aestheticism (art for art's sake) in my personal work and others.

Profiction as well, if it matters. (I don't like labels that much!) I'm against the censorship of fictional work/creative expression. Any disturbing themes you see in my work are not inherently reflective of my own moral compass. Have a fun quote from the Preface to The Picture of Dorian Gray.

⚠️ WARNING: You WILL see themes of the psychological, complex, horror, or taboo on this blog. Please keep that in mind when interacting even if you are an adult, as it may distress some viewers. ⚠️

Small Devlog Update!

I hope you guys enjoyed the "Where's Tenna?" sidecomic!!

In case the inclusion of it didn't make sense-- the aforementioned optional Secret Date... might pertain to the comic. :)

I was trying to figure out ways to announce the different aspects of ILTV in a way that would be more interesting than just listing the characters who'll show up in this "mystery Dark World." There's still one more I haven't announced yet, but that will come soon. That aspect of the story is a little more relevant to the overall narrative, since as I've mentioned before, the [Weird] Route will be a required aspect of the story instead of a separate one. Think of how Act to Flirt requires you to go on a date everyone before you can choose an ending!

As an extra bonus, I have a small devlog update... 🔷📺💗

The game is ALMOST complete! The majority of what needs to be done is putting in final assets where there are none and finishing writing the 4 parts that are currently mostly-but-not-completely written. I've already had a family member do some playtesting and am hoping to have 2 other friends playtest it once the writing is completely implemented before I call it ready to ship.

I've been real slow getting this last chunk put together, but I'm determined to finish it!! I've made it this far, and I rarely finish projects, so I want to see it completed.

Since he's also announced for the game at this point... allow me to show off some of the Small Mike sprites I made months ago!

This was genuinely the first time I'd ever drawn Small Mike, so it actually was a total pain to figure out how I wanted to do it. Trying to figure out how to make his hair look like both hair and microphone lines when up-scaled was difficult... If only I'd waited to reference the Mike Check t-shirt that I had no idea was going to release.

Also, although there are three options available in I Love TV! -- between Tenna's Route, [Weird] Route, and the Secret Date -- you may find that you will not be limited to choose only one of them at the end of the game, if you manage to win over multiple of them (or all of them!) :D

I'm excited to announce the final character and release the rest of the game... I hope you guys are too, honestly.
