I haven't posted an update for while, but I'm actually very close to the finish line of my musical murder mystery game Murder at the Birch Tree Theater! I just finished plugging in all the clues into the final level, which is more than twice the size of any previous level.

Happy #screenshotsaturday -- here are some stills from my early-in-development murder mystery musical theater puzzle game, Murder at the Birch Tree Theater. Inspired by games like Obra Dinn and Golden Idol, built in Godot.

The structure and gameplay are heavily inspired by The Case of the Golden Idol, a game from last year I adored and thought "I wish there were more games like this."

Each level will take place during a different fictional production at the theater, and will the music will be inspired by that. The story takes place over the course of about 20 years. Each "level" is a self-contained puzzle, but it all adds up to a larger story.

I taught myself how to use Godot to make it, and I also made the artwork myself in Procreate. The music and sound effects are placeholders for now, but obviously I will be writing all the music for the game 😂

For a while it was skeletal code and placeholder art, but now I have it in a playable state! You can play to the end of the first level without any bugs or issues. So far I've mapped out the entire story, and have designed and programmed the first level.

Wild announcement!
For the past few months I've been creating a murder mystery video game called "Murder at the Birch Tree Theater," which tells the sordid tale of a community theater and the people who vied for power in it.
