After an amazing voice session for our innkeeper, we decided to add a proper singing pose for her...

Updating the first locations for our next #adventuregame based on Les Miserables: the trip to Paris brought some inspirations to make it feel more real!

#pointandclick #indiedev #indiegame
Three pictures: an early sketch of a bar, with simple lines, a photo of an old inn in Paris, and at the bottom, a much more detailed black and white sketch

Yes, our next game includes a card minigame with figures from the French Revolution, and yes, we made a physical version to test balance this weekend!

Don't underestimate the value of child labour for game testing, they have a good way of trying things others don't...

This long-suffering coach driver from our forthcoming game needs a suitably French name... Any suggestions??

More than 6 months after the release of our first short game 'The Protagonish' we are offering a permanent discounted price on Steam and itch.io!

Amazed by how many people have played already, and want to encourage more! […]

More character sketching for our next game 'Claude'! Will have more than 30 characters, and having a lot of fun 'fleshing' out their personalities and appearances, these are silhouette options for two of them...

A hand holding two sheets of paper, filled with about a dozen different pencil sketches of silhouettes. Some are tall, some thin, many slouched or stooped, all in greyscale.

The next location we are scouting for our game is the 'Hameau de la Reine' in Versailles, built for Marie Antoinette to escape the 'pressures' of royal life... Poor soul!
