Yume Nikki PS1.
Demo out NOW!
It contains two dream worlds to explore.

You can run it on a real PlayStation 1.

This is a fan game. I put a lot of love and care into it.
I hope you enjoy it.

Made a mockup for a menu to see what would look good. So far this seems pretty good to me.
Also still no idea on a name for this game besides TDF.

STOP THE PRESSES.

The ROM for the unreleased Famicom RPG Splatter World has been released (in a thread on 4chan, of all places). I've tried it myself, and it does seem to be genuine. If it's a fake, it's a damn good one.

Expect (more) coverage on West Mansion soon.

There's no way to see to it in the game because of how the starting conversations are scripted, but Ultima VII actually had a line for Petre for if you talk to him before Iolo has had a chance to introduce you.

New video!! Quake 4 is a horror game, but what kind of horror are we talking about? Psychological? Body horror? Or something more insidious? Come join me for the live premiere as I examine @ravensoftware.com's masterpiece, Quake 4!

Lots of back and forth trying to decide how to show the current campaign state. Landed on this text heavy version which looks a bit like period film titles. #indiedev #solodev #indiegame #retrogaming #screenshotsaturday

When your fanart looks this good and your game's not even out yet, you know you're doing something right. Major thanks again to @theinkyway.bsky.social. (also, they said they're open for commissions)
