Creepy Uncle Timmy & The Watery Ditch Of Lies

[GregFroning]

What Is It?
This game is what I am coining as a "micro" or "mini" RPG, with the goal of having a short story and overall length of 20-30 minutes.

You can think of it as a bite size RPG, for just a quick run through and very simple mechanics.

Any Story?
The story is still in development, but you start out waking up inside of a cavern and discover that the night before you drank a few too many "CinnaWhisks". You exit the cave only to come upon a young man that says you left something back in town, so you start your journey and follow the road to town...

That is all you get to see for now, rest will come in the full game!

Can You Play It?
Not quite yet, but I do have a nice video that I am looking to get feedback on as I develop the engine. All graphics are temporary and I plan on paying an artist for complete and cohesive ones soon.

Video Time!

Hmm could be cool! Don't get destroyed by scope creep like me. Mini seems like a great goal.

Interesting title. I like it.

I am trying my best to keep it within the scope I originally planned! Best way I am doing that is by not expanding the short story I have.

Interesting title. I like it.

Thanks for checking out the post! It is quite a long title, but it will make sense I hope. haha

It has been a bit since I have left an update, thought I would drop by and share a little post I made over at the blog showing some new things that are being implemented.
