You, Ripley, have been worked to the bone in an effort to stay on the straight and narrow. Cooking, plating, rinsing, repeating. On your one day off, you decide to take your partner Iris and their camera to a planning party for your friend Erik’s future thesis film. But the footage Erik wants to capture is more than you or Iris bargained for.

CHECK THE VISUAL NOVEL OUT HERE

Still waiting on the reviewing process for the steam release but you can get the DEMO early on itch!

The demo contains over 80+ illustrations of hand drawn key art, point & click environments, and an original soundtrack. Solo developed over 5 months, this is the first game I have ever released.

I would love love love LOVE to hear any of your thoughts/opinions/feedback and hope you enjoy the party...

RIPLEY has been worked to the bone at a restaurant in a effort to stay on the straight and narrow. Cooking, sweating, rinsing, repeating. On his one day off, he decides to take his partner IRIS’s camera to a planning party for his friend ERIK’s future THESIS FILM. But the footage ERIK wants to capture is more than RIPLEY or IRIS bargained for. It's a narrative with queer love/characters, splatter-shot gore, and a cycle of violence that just keeps spinning.

New video trailer for the This Party Is Killer DEMO ! It's a horror visual novel with a queer cast I've been solo deving since October!

Bug fixes, UI changes, and minor features added-- Available both on ITCH.IO and Steam

Patch Notes and devlog below the cut!

First dev-log update for TPIK!! I've been working on putting this demo together and planning it since late September so this will be my first public project and FASTEST turnaround project I've worked on. I am hoping to get the demo done by the 31st of October but we will see-- it really shouldn't take me much longer than that if I stick to my schedule.

Currently there's over 65+ illustrations, all of which are currently sketched out at the least with 5 interactable environments to explore throughout the demo. All of the backgrounds are watercolor too which I think is neat

There's also 18 songs on the soundtrack so far, all made from scratch but hopefully appropriate for the sections they play in… I've only had the game playtested so far by 2 people, waiting on the 3rd so that I can discuss the pacing/content/and sound design (if you're interested in seeing anything early just let me know ^_^) The trailer is also almost done, just waiting on finishing a few more pieces of key art to add in before it gets released, which is cool imo B)

Other than illustrating though there isn't much left that needs to be done. I just need to implement the gore censorship toggle (which might get delayed depending on how long everything takes me) and finish the save/load system that I'm about halfway done with and then it will just be a matter of plugging in all the art to their appropriate placeholder spots. Yayayayayay!
