I haven’t actually showed my game to anyone, up to this point.
There were a few exceptions on Discord, but that was only me asking for help with sprites, colors, advice for certain things, etc.
Even though, this is just a gif, it’s the opening cutscene for my game and wanted to show it to someone, out there for what they think about this.
I have plans for the main character to say some stuff (in his mind, but the player will see what he’s thinking), but still.
Hey there @NS24,
Cool looking gif. I love the color scheme and the artwork looks really well done. Nice animation on the curtains and the characters hair. Good job! This little teaser is makes me want to know more about the game and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Do you plan on posting more about the game as it’s being developed? Would love to read about progress and what not if you are.
I may share more about my game, as I’ve been working on it for a good while now, but since my 9-5 job has to get in the way of dev time, it has been tough to finish some things on certain days.
I’m still debating on sharing some songs I made for this game, at some point down the road, but we’ll see.
I know some folks might say to go full-time indie, but with this game, I’m just not into doing that personally.
That would be awesome to read more about the game and some of your thought processes or how things were made.
I am in the same boat as you on working a full time job (with overtime constantly) and still working on game development projects in the evenings. For me I wouldn’t leave something with a stable income to pursue something I cannot guarantee income on that allows me to make it to the next day and so on. Unless I obtained funding from an investor or something, it’s just not in the cards for me yet.
I am excited to hopefully see more about your game in future posts! You already have a fan right here!
It looks great. it makes me interested to know more about the project if you can find time to post a bit more. Like what is this cut scene for? Is our hero reflecting on a rough day? Making plans to face some challenge tomorrow?
I work a full time job too so I know time can be tight, and also you may not want to reveal anything too early, but I will be interested if you post updates to your project.
Thanks man. I agree with not wanting to leave a current job (even though, I don’t like it) to pursue something that may or may not be a successful career.
I’m making this game because I want to. I’m hoping to release Episode 1 of my game before this year ends, but we’ll see how that turns out.
And yes, I plan in releasing this game as an episodic release. Not too many episodes obviously, but still.
Thank you. 
As of right now, this is the opening cutscene for my game and I want it to set the stage for how I want the main character to be, as well as what the story for the game will be.
The main character usually likes to think to himself and I want to establish that point throughout the game.
Regarding the story, I want it to be something simple to understand, but a little bit deep when you play through the game.
I don’t want to reveal what the story is yet, but it is something that I’m putting some thought into.
That’s good and hopefully you are having fun while making it!
That’s not a bad idea as it can be expanded on easily in the future if you ever wanted to. I wish you the best on the game!
Thanks man. I wish the same to you with your future and current projects.
