small copy+paste thread about the visual direction for the prototype

visuals are extremely simple, but are inspired by how i visualize/dream irl! i don't see apples and i definitely can't rotate them 3D or color, so everything i try to imagine ends up becoming a haze of grey outer glows...

so when coming up with the idea for this IF, which is a dream-like state for the narrator/pov, i wanted to keep the visuals simple and inspired from some early computer games & games like faith the unholy trinity!

i ended up adding small animations later on because i felt the small amount of movements helped make it feel more atmospheric & to up the eeriness!

at the moment, most of the character designs are just temporarily placeholders, but i kinda like the idea that they will be inconsistent with future designs as a result of recalling something so much that details change with each recollection of it

there's a lot of lore/worldbuilding i want to add in the next update & maybe move plot points around now that i have a more clear idea of where i want to go with the whole game now! the current build is def just seeing where the idea would take me & im very excited to expand it!!

i made a game / interactive fiction!😎(happy april fools but this is actually not a joke)

for the holiday, i'm releasing the prototype for "stargazer", a f2p interactive fiction about a knight in a castle.

hi....! i'm a bit nervous posting this since this isn't my usual body of work at all.... but regardless i did want to try and get a light interest check / feelers out for a project i have in mind :,) i've been really inspired to make interactive fictions recently and have been going through a ton of projects that i've seen on the database/thru itch !! so in an attempt to keep a good writing habit & also because i had a fun idea i wanted to work on, i've started rough planning for an IF! below is the rough synopsis and idea i'm planning on proceeding with ;w;) i would def appreciate any initial impressions or interest in replies/tags but please note i am so new to (waves hands) all of this, so i appreciate your leniency as i dip my toes into this area... if there are any questions or general comments, i'll do my best to reply....! thank u T_T ——— UNION (name is subject to change) is a soft sci-fi IF following an amnesiac player trying to navigate a war between rebels and corporations. Tear apart the membrane that keeps this city alive and carve out the truth for yourself. — SYNOPSIS (below the cut!)

UNION.

The word was plastered on every surface you could see, from torn stickers on street lamps, pixels on a moving screen, seeping into the pores of the bricks that built this city. You couldn't recall what the word meant to you, but your body remembered better. It was hard to ignore the way you flinched at any sign of the name. They were the heart of this bleeding city and you were certain that humanity would have perished long ago without their technological advancements.

You weren’t sure where you came in, a cell in this mechanical monster you called a city. With glass shards embedded into your knees and sticky lime sewage clinging to your skin, you try to make sense of the world you’ve suddenly been thrust into. 

The shadows that slip between the cracks of UNION’s watch seem to know your name, your face, your every action. Everyone seems to know better than you do. Why does everyone seem to know you? 

UNION provides you with the safety that you had never known and out of your own selfish need to survive, you’re more than happy to feed off of their open palm.

Until one day, a mysterious figure who claimed to know you, your past and your future comes to collect your dues. To you, who had known nothing outside the pristine infirmaries of UNION and the consort of employees that tended to your every need, you were now forced to make a choice: Face your enigmatic past or embrace the comforts of your new life?
