We have begun our massive marketing push leading up to the Kickstarter! We're just days away from it now! Very exciting times.
Here's a pretty cool gif compliation showing off a few scenes from the game.

Thanks @Kawaiisnail and @Petro lokotik! We're still working hard and hopefully I'll have new content to share soon.

I've spent the past few days implementing verlet physics and sprite-based particle generation. It's nothing but eye candy but it does look nice!

Here's the latest and greatest after an extended silence here on the forums: Bring Me Hope, IRL Edition - FERN NIGRO (fernmakesgames.com)

I'll share a couple snippets from the blog for people who are allergic to clicking links.

Looks cool. Love the art style. The movement of the camera and the character is very slick.

Keep it up!

Here with another update after two years of silence: An Intermission and Then Redemption - FERN NIGRO (fernmakesgames.com)

Once more will share a lot of snippets for those of you who hate clicking URLs.

I regularly stream the development of this game (3-4 days a week on a consistent schedule) if you're interested in seeing my process. ( FreshWaterFern - Twitch )

Keeping this thread alive is obligatory since I spent so many years on the game maker forums
