"Amadeus: A Riddle for Thee ~ Episode 1 ~ Waltz" DEMO is OUT! (MacOS | PC | Linux)

Links here. Available on Steam and Itch.io!

Play as Amadeus, a young werewolf struggling to understand his condition, as he navigates a tale woven by Witches. He is equal parts desperate and determined—how can one reclaim agency over themself, when afflicted by a curse that steals it from them every time the moon Aska draws full?

Amadeus: A Riddle for Thee is a hand-drawn narrative game heavily inspired by Umineko When They Cry thematically, and Professor Layton aesthetically. Gameplay is a blend of pure Visual Novel scenes + Point-and-Click Adventure scenes. The story is linear, and will be told in 5 sequential episodes.

Episode 1 ~ Waltz will release Fall 2024. Please check out the demo in the meantime, and Wishlist on Steam to be notified when the full game releases!

Bits and pieces of character design for The Pale Beyond!

I did a lot of sketches to figure out how posing should work for the emotes - some of them made it into the final game!

Sapphire City

Some scenes from Sapphire City Part 1, an adventure game set in the near future.

'Escaping a troubled past you have finally found some solace with a new life, in a new city. This comfort is shattered when a call from an old friend drags you back into a world that you had tried to leave behind. Amidst sinister corporate entities, dark conspiracies and clashing titans of industry, you find yourself centre stage in a plan of vengeance decades in the making.'

Thanks!

You've moved in to your new home in Bloomington - reunited with your bestie, Bailey - just in time for the event of the season: the Bloomington spring festival. According to Bailey, it's more fun to go with a date, but Bailey's dating game is... practically nonexistent. That's okay, though, because now you're on the case! You want to meet their friends anyway... it's a perfect opportunity to slip in a little romance on the side.

As Macy, you have seven days to get used to the town and find Bailey a date. People keep gifting you plants, there are cats in your backyard, and what is UP with that new donut shop?

The demo for FLORAL: The Blooming Cycle is now out! Check it out on itch.io!

By the way! I wrote a fun lil narrative TTRPG game called the Emperor's procession, where you stitch together the story of a fearsome and magical emperor journeying through their land - from the point of view of their citizens who are all like fairytale protagonists in their own right.

Please have a look and if it suits you, I hope you give it a try!

Transcription: "All of the art assets in [the game] are hand-drawn, and so for example, this-" [holds hand-drawn image up to the camera] "-is the background that you see here".

Recap of the Amadeus demo livestream:

Showed the hand-drawn art used as assets in game (see above clip; more below readmore!)

Full playthrough of the demo start-to-finish

Discussion of the development/writing process, and plans for the full episode

Talked at length about inspirations (Umineko, Higurashi, Ghost Trick)

No, that is not an overlay, I really did use an old MiniDV camcorder from 2004 hooked up to an A/V capture card as my webcam. I had to rewind it whenever I got to the end of the tape.

Transcription: "Ta-da! In the flesh. But yeah, this notebook also has—I think it has my big braining theories... it does! It has my theories from my Umineko playthrough as well."

Transcription: "I think this was actually the first [sprite] that I inked. Yes, this was the first one that I inked. 'Cuz originally Amadeus's sprites were all just pencil—originally, everything was just pencil. And then what happened was I inked, I made the poster, and I inked the poster; and I inked that self-indulgent Fata Morgana-Castlevania-Amadeus crossover fanart; and then I remembered just how much I really actually love inking and I love how my art looks when it's inked. And I was like... [sigh] uuuuuuugghhh..... I need to ink some talksprites..."

Transcription: "Tada~! Do—do you want to know where it's located in my extremely well-organized notebook? The page before it is, uh, my doodles of how I envision the Higurashi characters with legs... because they don't have legs in the game."
