#Mutazione took me 11 years to make – Concept, World, Characters, Story, Creative Direction of a core team of up to 13 and the work of my career I’m most proud of (so far) – Out as a premium title on iOS and Android. It's even more relevant now and I hope it still is 11 years after its release.

four Characters from Saltsea Chronicles in the radio room with a lot of different devices, that look like 70s technology. Characters are Murl, Iris and two "radders" from Sisao, an stranded, upside down cruise ship.

Details on how certain text effects were implemented to convey emotion - this is very similar to how we approached text effects in @gutefabrik.bsky.social's Saltsea Chronicles! (I reviewed the "interrupt" effect across the game).

#SketchToFinish These were two key concepts of our last game #SaltseaChronicles, which were crucial to defining the art style of the game. Also, similar to Mutazione, there is little to no difference between concept art and in-game art.

I found the original artwork of Die Gute Fabrik. I know these are not sketches but I'll use them as a starting point for a series of posts #SketchToFinish.
Honestly, I had no idea what I was doing here, just tried things out.

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🙏

Thanks Doug. I’ll always cherish the time we’ve been working together. Working with you opened the space of what games can be, and I never want to close that door again. I’m glad our life paths have aligned for the time they did. I wish you lots of joy and excitement with your new projects!

Thank you! This is lovely!

Thank you for all the amazing work you did for Die Gute Fabrik @hannahnicklin.bsky.social ! Yes, there are plans, and it's all starting out fairly small again. I wish I could share more, but let's see what this year brings...

Departing Directors, New Directions. This month we’re bidding a fond farewell to two of our co-owners: Hannah Nicklin and Douglas Wilson. The co-owners remain firm friends and grateful collaborators...

A new chapter for Die Gute Fabrik: Huge thanks to our parting co-owners Hannah and Doug, and best of luck going forward!
