  PROPHET - a MICRO-HORROR GAME by CatTrigger

  A NEW GAME IS HEREHi, it's CatTrigger. Some of you may have already been notified, since you follow me on itch.io... and I apologize not sending this newsletter out earlier...as I was catching up on some sleep after the O2A2 game jam. That's right, I made another short game for the O2A2 game jam called PROPHET.Your village has chosen YOU for this pilgrimage, where you will ascend to Heaven representing them.Near the end of your travels, you come upon the Great Prophet of the Church. She will assist you on the ritual......but the Prophet may not be who she says she is.Prophet is a Horror Micro-Game made for the O2A2 Micro-Game Jam that is part Visual Novel & Part Point 'n' Click.You are a Pilgrim nearing to the end of your Pilgrimage, committed to the final steps of the ritual with the Great Prophet. Your choices will judge what happens to you and the future of the church.As with all O2A2 games, this game was created under strict guidelines:- Only one character "sprite model" visually featured.- Only one environment- Only one soundtrack.- Only one sound effect.- 1,000 words or less, excluding repeats (Game is exactly 1000 words).  - Only 10 days from START to COMPLETION.I've participated in O2A2 for the last 4 years. PROPHET has been the most ambitious entry for this jam for me. I hope you enjoy it :).Play it here for free

  Storm, Date Time and other ⭐ New Year Updates! ⭐

  Welcome back everyone! I know it's already been a while posting on the 'Date Time' docket! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43774152/e289cdc5f027bbd2e0edbbc1db2adce74c310078.png (Every year I do an illustration of the Zodiac Animal before the apple drops, technically Chinese New Year happens weeks later, but who will TRULY hold me accountable, huh?) Also... some sass.. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43774152/0a29e48efdb9ce7df85e4e54ca1ac51cd9d36f45.png Since this is the beginning of the New Year, I thought it'd be good to update you on what I've been up to since getting back from Christmas break. Engine Problems Currently, I am working on engine upgrades for both the 'Storm the Swan' project as well as 'Date Time'. This includes upgrading from Unity 2019 to Unity 6 and ALL THE BEAUTIFUL PROBLEMS that that entails. Hopefully at the end of that process, StS will be on its way to being fully finished (asides from small bug fixes here or there) and Date Time will be able to keep on development without regression hitches. This change is hard, and has bumped into their own bugs for both projects, however... it would be beneficial for the long run, as I'll be able to get better support moving forward with game development on a much less archaic version of Unity. Speaking of Storm... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43774152/f2a5264c2e26d88ab021baac40a8c213bec6a57b.png Storm the Swan is just a few Steam Reviews away from reaching 50.

In the demo version of the Anna Chapter, you were able to play through the perspective of a beta tester named, Jane Whitman. But in the 2nd part of the chapter, you will be...
