We’re thrilled to have just announced our game A Storied Life: Tabitha at the Gamescom Awesome Indies showcase!
It’s a real labour of love for the team at Lab42 and we’re over the moon to be working with our friends @wearesecretmode.com on an original title.

How would you like to be remembered?
In A Storied Life: Tabitha, you arrive at the house of someone close after they've passed away. Picking through the items that made up their life, you'll choose what stories you want to tell from their past.

Sometimes when we think we're alone there are people who care about our work even if we don't know they're there. Big angry haters too *lol*

![Page 19
Panel 1: Imagni wades out of the water laughing, chasing after her butterflies. She is being observed on some kind of green screen somewhere.
Imagni- "HEY! Wait for me! Hah ha ha!!"
Offscreen voice (green bubble)- "AWW, Look at her!"
Panel 2: "She's so damn happy." A mysterious grinning figure, sits sipping tea and watching Imagni on a screen made of green soundwaves. They have one visible eye that glows yellow. They look to be the same kind of species as Imagni. A Creator...
Panel 3: Imagni unaware she's being watched is super happy back at her beach. She clasps her hands in excitement looking upwards to the sky.
Imagni- "Oh Spectramis! I LOVE this!"... " I did good right?"
[Offscreen voice in red bubble]- "This is the ugliest and weakest concept I've ever seen."
Panel 4: Imagni drops to her knees in the sand and grabs a handful of her beach looking so happy she could cry.
Imagni- "My own little place."
Panel 5: We see a large foreboding panel of the two figures observing Imagni in a dark room surrounded by green screens made of light casting a warm glow. Behind the figures is some sort of big glass tube full of colored strings brightly shining.
Red bubbled figure is a large cloaked angry looking Creator with big curled horns on their head, decorated in armor and architectural adornments. She looks old and mean.
Green bubbled figure puts down her teacup ignoring the other Creators' spiteful attitude calmly. She sits with authority.
Red Creator- "She's already cycles behind Taijitu."
Green Creator- "Perhaps."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:os4lypglbasszihy62u5ap2d/bafkreie5jsxvvhqejx5dyoteu6t5syd2pi2kkw2xtk3idxn3ca4cg3oqjq@jpeg)

Well the Steam Machine pitch is tailor made for me.
I spent the entirely of the late 2010s+ listening to podcasts telling me it’s simple to get into PC games and, friends, it ain’t - you’re in too deep.
I dropped PCs 20 years ago because I got fed up with that ecosystem of drivers and pain.

I fucken love adding little details of polish to games. It gives me so much purpose. When making the original prototype of Tabitha a year ago the mechanics of the game were very clear to the team - but after I applied the little bits of polish and vibes they REALLY got it. In my element 😚

I cannot believe this game is so cheap. If you have a PSP you should own this because it advances on the formula so well and you should play it.
And also because it feels more like Ghouls ‘n Ghosts and less like Super because that game isn’t great.
I’m sorry but it’s true!

Well the new Double Dragon game sure feels like it’s an early Xbox 360 game :(
DD is one of my fave franchises, I own all of them, some of them are amazing, but this is a lot closer to Wander of the Dragons than Neon, Gaiden or Advance - all very different but really good!

It’s difficult to explain the level of MK3 obsession throughout 1995. Scouring early internet for rumors (shoutout rat.org), clipping magazines, trading secrets at the arcade, etc.
Shoutout to Flux Magazine’s @danamrich.bsky.social. Whatever happened to that guy? 😉

Daaamn the first Tomb Raider is just as good as I remembered from having it on the Saturn when it was new, and being able to play it on a physical cartridge on a plane is aces
Never noticed before but imagine if Fade to Black had similarly good mechanics? Now THAT would have been a Flashback sequel
