An Art Blog(tm)

Hello hello! Dove has finally gotten its first artsy update, making it still a WIP but less of a WIP than it was 4 months ago (yipee!) This is unfortunately taking me a while because WORK eats all of my energy, but I promise I’m still working on it!

WHAT THE GAME ALREADY HAS:   ☑ Complete storyline (game can be played in its entirety)   ☑ 3 endings based on player’s choices   ☑ Fully illustrated play sequences (hidden objects and choice sequences) ☑ Music, Ambients and SFX (which can all be muted if desired)

WHAT’S BEEN ADDED IN DOVE 2.0: ☑ The introduction (from the beginning to the start of the first game sequence) is now completely illustrated ☑ Theodore’s first flashback is now completely illustrated in terms of ‘scenes’ (characters portraits to come later on) ☑ An actual illustration that shows up after finding the dove (it is no longer a duck with a 1/3 transparent background)

HI!! I was part of the Pixelles Game Incubator X this year and in 8 weeks we had to learn how to make a game and, well, make one. soooo mine is called Dove and I wanted to share it with you all even if it isn’t completed, please take note it is NO COMPLETED.

Dove is a short visual novel with hidden objects play sequences. It was made with Ren’Py and was coded, written and illustrated by me. It was my first time making a game and coding with python in general and I did that in 8 weeks while also working a full-time job and having like 45864584 life events thrown at me, so please be nice ; - ;

Theodore is your typical guy trying to sleep through the entirety of summer break in peace until a persistent dove forces him out of the house and on to familiar decors that remind him of his past friendship with an atypical guy called Henry. A simple and short visual novel with hidden object elements and three possible endings.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Bullying, fatshaming, suicide (mentions and implications), depression, animal death, some flashing lights

HOW IS IT NOT COMPLETE? While you can play the entire game without issue, most of the art right now is placeholders. In other terms: very messed up doodles I drew with my mouse on MS Paint so I could quickly slap them in the game and see if my code worked. 8′)

ARE YOU PLANNING TO FINISH IT, AND WHEN? YES and I don’t know! I’m making this blog specifically to keep track of what needs work and what is being worked on. Check here for info on that!

IS IT FREE? 100% free with the option to tip me if you so wish (just because I suffered through the whole process too much to just to not give myself the option to get tips from it lmao), but absolutely no obligation!
