Hallowed Crossing Game @hallowedcrossing.bsky.social · Jun 12
Sir Vincent was many things: a Keymaster Reaper, an avid gardener, a researcher, and your grandfather. Two years after he vanishes, you are summoned to execute his will. Pulled into the strange and spooky town of Hallowed Crossing, the keys to his disappearance lie in recultivating his gardens.
Screencap of a pixel game: town in late autumn, the black trees are barren of leaves. Screencap of a pixel game: shopping interface in tarnished brass featuring basic farming tools. Screencap of a pixel game: the formally dressed NPC Viryn states "These gardens have gotten so unruly. Someone should tidy them up before Sir Vincent returns." Screencap of a pixel game: inside a manor with dark green walls and fancy stone flooring.

Over the weekend, I released version 0.3 to my playtesters. Key features for this update include the Grid Info window (in the top left of these screenshots), as well as furniture!

Today I pixeled a wisteria lattice for the witch's cottage.

I decided to include flint corn instead of sweet corn in Hallowed Crossing as a nod to the First Nations people who are the original and continuing stewards of the land on which I live.

Today's feature is the warp menu! Now that I have more locations, it was becoming a necessity.

I still need to write a proper summary of this game but I've been working hard on it. Here's a screencap of progress from a month or two ago.
