The Halloween update is live! It includes the point and click update, as well as the new inventory system! (Minor additions: Extension + Ui improvements)
I won’t say much, as to avoid spoiling!

Trying to push past my art block; all this stupid visa and payment bs is jumbling my brain worms up- I’ve made a Ko-fi finally- so maybe I’ll start posting more sneak peeks there- (probably gonna sell off Steam, Gumroad and Ko-Fi) #gamedev #indiedev #gamecensorship #collectiveshout #queercensorship

Nsfw imagery technically. Now, since doing that the game has reappeared in searches- seeming to be removed from the shadow banned placed on it. Unfortunately, I’m going to have to be discreet with the contents on the game (at least on the itch.io site) The content warnings will remain ingame, but 🧵

the lighting in this scene was fun to do, those who played know the window in the bedroom is behind the bed- so drawing the light cascading over; plus the little light particles was fun 💅 (I could’ve used the art from day 1 for the morning, but I want each day to feel different) #indiedev #indiegame
