Gotta take a break from #SuNoFes for a weekend to recover, so we're creating some wonky dumpster fire for #GMTKJam again this year 😂🎉
Using rottingpixels.itch.io and kevins-moms-house.itch.io tiles/sprites at the moment!

That moment I realized the most unhinged character in our #SuNoFes visual novel isn't the literal eldritch god of chaos but our main character trying to romance them 🤯

Our pride month post from two years ago is gone because we deleted our twitter account, so here it is again:
"Fun fact: Rose used to date a centuries old woman, trapped in an eldritch ritual. They met online.
Happy pride month, have Rose and Emma baking cake!"

After our last two jam entries were essentially high effort shit posts, we're now working on serious things like POOMP and a project for this summer again :)

For our latest game jam entry, Jazz Bear, we named our MC Antonciro because he's an Asshole and Sofija is called Sofija because she's the Shopkeeper. Based on that, you'd expect us to call the Bear Bert or Bernardo or something, but two team members are currently listening to #woebegonepod so...

We took part in #DiscMasterJam. It's not our usual type of jam, which made it especially fun to play around with.
For this jam, we built a visual novel completely out of pre-internet assets from the internet archive! It's silly and weird and we had a ton of fun!

Yup. We're preparing our Artur sprite for some actual consequences in POOMP. Perfection | Paper-thin was child's play for him, so we had to throw actual challenges at him at *some* point.
How'd it get this far? I'm sure you'll find out at some point when we finally manage to release POOMP...
