13 barn owls in a trenchcoat
@taylormccue The screens definitely make me feel a certain way, which is a good sign I think?
Are you assembling this one in Twine atm?
(Twitter doesn't like showing me things, but I think I'm getting the gist. Sorry your brain is being inhospitable to you.)

I've had hardcore writers block so I'm taking a quick break on project fancy and trying to scope out a small project.
So far Ive burned through a zombie, vampire, and monster game concept. Currently its morphed into a game about body issues.

I'm not sure if this game is going to end up existing but I thought I'd throw some screens of it against the wall and gauge the reaction since this blog was gathering dust and I need to overcome the curse of feeling intimidated following up hftgoom.

im really tired so i posted some images out of order but god idk, im just too tired and reposting this across multiple sites is too hard when I want to just be depressed.
Idk you can read it in original context here:

The game didn't seem to be received very well but im kinda cool with that. Its probably a very bad sign but idk.

@HauntedOwlbear Oh omg hi!
I usually assemble games in twine first, quick prototype them out and then move onto their target engine.
It's how I've operated in deving for a long time.
The target engine is going to be gb studio or godot (leaning godot) and will be a trivia based game.
But yeah lately my brains been trying to eat me and im fighting with it to get any function.
I'm also just glad like anyone was like wow its okay since it kinda seemed dead on twitter.

@taylormccue to be fair, I gather Twitter is p. dead unless you have a pro account these days (but idk, I live here).
Twine's such a helpful prototyping tool.

@taylormccue you suffer the curse of giving your art away for free!
Good goals though. And the screens genuinely have something. Your games carry an emotional resonance that I can see here, too (and which is what I play then for).
Lemme finish getting up and I'll write some alt text and give you a boost.

@HauntedOwlbear My target for it is a good quick small scale game I can have for a dollar and add to bundles and stuff in the future so im not just constantly adding "free" games.
Also so that maybe one day I can get a steam game out of profile features limited which is one of my bucket list goals.

Game screenshot shows line art of two people, who can be parsed as a nude woman with long blonde hair and a rear view of a short-haired main with his trousers and underwear around his ankles, erect penis and buttocks visible. His hands are positioned at his genitals. The woman looks unhappy and has turned to cover her breasts and raised a knee to cover her genitals.
Image 3:
The next image in the sequence shows the woman, still with an unhappy expression, sitting before the man with her legs spread. He is in the same position as before, his cock visible. Her genitals are exposed but blurred out. She has her hands up to cover her breasts.

Line art of a straight torso with a penis and testicles. It looks like it has a face on the glans.

Line art of another straight torso, with a smaller penis and testicles. It also has a little face.
Image 3:
Another torso, with a much larger penis and testicles. It appears to be erect and its face looks like it has its mouth open shouting or in surprise.
