After I learned everything there is about the human bone, I decided it would be more fun to learn how to blow up digital worlds. (they/them)

This is kind of a semi-private account, so don't take it personal, should I reject your follow request. I just want keep things small here.

If you're interested in what games I'm making, please look me up elsewhere (links are on my profile).

P.S.: I'm a communist.

What is Virtue's Heaven? Is it an "Evil Game"? Is it an attempt at expressing our current day's malaise in an action platformer? Or is it "not a good metroidvania" with a final act that is "just weird"?

Whatever the case, it definitely is 20% off on Steam!

Here are the enemies for my JRPG game test thing. The only one left if the boss, but that's something for next week.

Also, just ignore the two enemies without names. I'm not definitely not holding those back for spoiler reasons.

JRPG test dungeon now has simple cutscenes and real dialogue.
Now this comes with the very obvious caveats that nothing here (especially the visuals) is anywhere close to final, but I just added the battle messaging stuff to JRPG game and figured why not record a battle?
Went on a walk to ponder status effects in JRPGs, got into a rainstorm and suddenly had this realization:
This is what happens when you let someone like me make videogames for over a decade:

The wrong people own the future, your friends are imprisoned and the world is about to end. There’s no more time for deliberation. It is finally time for desperate action.
It is finally time to end the Age of Reason.
Virtue’s Heaven is now out on Steam:

Save 10% on Virtue's Heaven on Steam

The world ends tomorrow, your friends are imprisoned and those responsible for both have stolen the future. The time for deliberation is over. It is time to be reckless, irresponsible and beautiful.

here's the splash screen by the way. I wanted to post it over on twitter jr as well, but that thing hates the sound in my videos.
I also just love the final paragraph of this post, because it felt nice to just say it, instead of carrying it with me as this strange mixture of ambivalent emotions.

Got some marketing grifter in my blsky DMs and it's funny how I'm so far beyond being afraid if and how the game will get noticed at this point that silly fear tactics just don't work on me anymore.

I'm just doing my best with the time that I have and what happens, happens.
