At this point we did a lot of iterative design work on every aspect of the game. We always do a ton of iteration on our games, an example of which can been seen in this very zoomed out view on our completely wild Eyes of Hellfire Miro board.

We used tabletop simulator to prototype both the gameplay and narrative experience. We ran an early example scenario much like you would a TTRPG.

This is where the real fun started for me. I got to spend time researching and drafting an entire cast of characters, backstory and plot for our game. The early narrative was actually designed as thought it would be experienced in a more traditional linear game.

Check out all these full notebooks:

From there we were inspired by local urban legends and lore around the Dublin Hellfire Club which was an infamous and secretive Georgian era gentleman’s club. There were the usual rumours of hedonism and debauchery but also suspected devil worship, demonic summoning and even ritual sacrifice.

Today is the day our game, Eyes of Hellfire, launches in early access. 🎉
To mark the occasion I thought I might share a bit of a thread 🧵 plotting some of the milestones of development of the game from a narrative design perspective.

📢 Big announcement! 📢 Our brand new gothic horror game Eyes of Hellfire is releasing in Early Access on August 27th!!!

live near Dublin? Ever complained about the far-right? Wondered what can be done?

Tomorrow there will be a right-wing protest in Dublin City center. There will also be a big counter protest attended by lots of progressive organisations.

Come along and show them Ireland welcomes all!

Im very late to this but I finally got around to playing Mouthwashing and I was immediately obsessed! What an unforgettable, brilliantly designed, stylistically exceptional and thoughtfully written experience. Immediate favourite for me. Highly recommended!
