ENDYSIS ♞❄️ The Last Winter Knight ❄️ @endysis.bsky.social · Jun 6

You wake up as a ghost, with no memory of who you were or how you died. The only clue to your past is the suit of armour you now inhabit. 👻

The Last Winter Knight is a gothic point-&-click visual novel where you lay the ghosts of the past to rest, including your own.

A ritual. A festering, unrequited love.

Sink into a humid and visceral SEA horror about the pursuit of a doomed lesbian love. Is a bad ending better than no ending at all?

Our Bad Ending main menu screen with two girls embracing in a forest.

Screenshot of a phone with a happy couple. Text box reads: Instead, she's been seeing this guy for five years. Their smiling faces pressed together along with the caption teases me "anniversary chalet with the bae"

Syira staring at Huimin covered in blood. Text box reads: H-Huimin?

Huimin lying on a bed with her eyes closed. Text box reads: Do you remember the ritual we did when we were younger?

Being a court jester is all fun and games...period. 🃏

We reviewed "Jester Under Pressure" by Orca Martian Games, and also learned Tagalog along the way! Who knew visual novels were a great way to learn a new language?

(Note from the social media person: we knew. We all knew. 😅)

Only A "Jester Under Pressure" Could Teach Filipino Vocabulary »

Learning Tagalog (and history) has never been more joyful.

I drew CABLE because for a long time now I've thought it'd be funny if I drew CABLE. Despite not really reading comics as a kid I grew up in a time where every new character in anything looked a little like CABLE so this stuff is embedded in my brain.

A drawing of Marvel Comics character, CABLE. The artist, Doc Shaner, gave up trying to be accurate about Cable's costume a long time ago.

Detail of a drawing of Marvel Comics' character, CABLE. His main superpower is having one eye that's a printing error that the artist leaned into.
