OK now that the test post is out of the way, time for an actual introduction. Hi! I'm Joy. I'm based in Osaka, Japan right now. I'm a professional game artist and also a solo indie developer.

I'm working on a "weird horror" investigation/ game called HEAVY AS STONE. It's loosely set in the world of The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers.

Also, everyone looks like a marionette.

Looking forward to hanging out with you all!

@thegnjoy I really love the art style! I'm usually not a horror game player but I want to play this one when it's out 👁👁

@LucieLumia Thank you! I've been calling it "comfy horror" haha. The visual style is geared more towards the unsettling and uncanny valley rather than that ubiquitous "pinhole flashlight and everything's dirty and dingy" brand of horror. No jumpscares, either!! All emergent and player-driven fear.

So, I can't guarantee it won't still be terrifying and filled with dread anyway 😅 Hope you'll still play it!
