If a Tiny Jam October happens, I might submit the second game I have planned too!
Hi Nat! Actually, the second game is planned for this October because I want to participate in the HorrorJam2026! Right now, I'm just giving At the Window a few days to breathe and gather some views now that it's finally out of the review filter and visible in the search bar. But I will start working on the new one very soon and I'll definitely open a thread here to share my progress. Thanks for the encouragement!
Hey no probs! I played Dark Room, really nice job with that! I'm a big fan of your art style. You know, I bet if you picked an element from the image, like maybe the darkness overlay, and you drew the same thing three times, you could put them together in an animation on its own. When you put it back in the scene, it would have a sketchy, darkness kind of vibe to it that I think would really suit your hand-drawn art style. Here's an example:
Maybe I'm biased because I've been putting that effect to good use in my own games, but you're clearly a better drawer than I am so I'd be really interested to know what it looks like when the person's actually good at drawing. 😄
Hey! Thank you so much for the compliment and for playing my game! I'm really glad you like my art style, even though I consider it more minimal and stylized rather than traditional drawing.
That's a really cool technique! To be honest, I didn't know about it, but it sounds super interesting. This game actually started as an experimental silent comic and a micro-animation, but I hit a wall after the second panel. Since micro-animations don't do very well on YouTube, I decided to turn it into a game, reusing the original materials and the final GIF, just like I did with 'At the Window'. I had to redraw the map to separate all the interactive elements, and I'm really happy with how it turned out.
Not to spam, but if you drop a follow, you'll get notified every time I release something new, so I won't have to message you here. Also, leaving comments under the games really helps the algorithm push them higher up in the search results!
Thanks again for the awesome feedback and the suggestion!
