Happy Holidays, Merry (Late) Christmas, and Happy (Early) New Year!
I meant to this send this a few days ago, but I've been so busy working on making games that I lost track, haha.
I hope you're having a great holiday season, and that 2025 will be a great year for you.

Hey there! Auden here.
It's hard to believe it's been 3 years since I released Find Love or Die Trying!
It's even harder for me to believe that it's been a whole 5 years since I first started working on it.

2024-01-01 15:25:46 +0000 UTC View PostI wasn't satisfied with the previous "polish", so I did a little more! Environments should feel a lot less 'flat', and make it easier for me to create a sense of depth in the game.
I also did a lot of engineering work to figure out how I could streamline making cutscenes.
That said, I'm noticing there's a slight l...

Merry Christmas, my dear patron! I hope you have the happiest of holidays.
For the first time in years, I took a ton of time off this week from my day job, and instead, spent a long time on art!
I redrew the male and female forms of the protagonist, and drew the characters I've planned for in the intro chapter of ...
2023-12-24 22:31:31 +0000 UTC View Post
I created the first pass at environments I'd need for the demo, and fixed a lot of the code required to get the player character to be able to walk through and interact with their environment!
Given the lack of actual physics engine, I'm doing a lot of code tricks to make it look like the player is moving through the en...
2023-12-18 14:00:09 +0000 UTC View Post
This week, I managed to create over 15+ animations for the main character, which should be enough for the introductory chapter! I'll probably have to make more later and clean them up some later, but this is good enough for me to switch to working on environments and other characters.
How to draw environments is still a...
2023-12-11 13:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostOver the past couple weeks, I've been working hard on preparing a functional demo of Loverbend, as well as a lot of other miscellaneous things. I'm currently aiming to have a very, very short demo ready by January 2024, and from there, I'll keep working to expand it.
Here's what I've been working on since the last updat...

Pretty happy with how my first animations turned out! There's room to clean things up, but I'll revisit that later when I'm further along in the project.
I've still got a lot of art to make and programming to do before the first playable build, but I'm enjoying the process.
Let me know what you guys think!

Still pretty rough, especially for the female version of the main character. I realized the base head of the F running animation I made needs some adjustments - will work on fixing that up tonight.
Next up is coloring and cleaning up the roughs!
I've spent over 40+ hours in the past week learning how to animate - I've animated tiny things before like opening an eye, but never something as big as a character running.
I knew I had to learn how to be able to make animations to make Loverbend have an explorable overworld, which I really want, but still, it's been t...
2023-11-21 02:45:08 +0000 UTC View PostI wrote the first 3.7K words of Loverbend! This covers most of the intro, but there's a bit more to write and code before I can switch from writing the intro to making the art for it.
As soon as the intro is playable, I'll start sharing development builds so I can start getting all of your feedback!
