Incanting involves dragging out symbols you learn from observing the environment. The game doesn't tell you anything directly, so the player has to take notes about the symbols they learn and what the associated spells supposedly do, then try to solve puzzles. It's multiplayer so you won't be alone

Left bauble is move and it's limited to four directions, right bauble is look and moves freely. Wherever you leave a bauble, the game will hold that input. To navigate you essentially have to micromanage inputs using only your mouse

Piety Online - Darklight Basin WIP

(Game is entirely controlled with the mouse lol)

The Bear would've been better if they had a Plankton type guy they had to deal with

Reposted with a small edit to improve things.......

Okay first off, I didn't "bounce on it." I was ricocheting off it.

And secondly we weren't having an affair. We were doing some John Wick shit.

To celebrate the first anniversary of Carter's Quest, I've put the game on its biggest sale ever: 40% off!

Works great on Steam Deck and now has cloud saves! Please, give it a look if you haven't yet.

I'm putting electrons in there. Can you eat electrons. Is roasted electrons okay for dinner.

We are working tirelessly day and night with R&D at raytheon to construct a flavanoid missile that could deliver chocolate to someone's tastebuds at hypersonic speeds. Tests have been a little... Heh... "dangerously decadent," but someone has to protect this little shithole we call the USA ☝️ 🤤

You are the first on the chopping block when they deify me after my post goes viral.

My brilliance is wasted on you people... Where is my spotlight? Why am I not being interviewed on the tonight show? ... Do I dare ask why I don't have my very own podcast and nipple-themed merch line yet...?

Trying to be a bit more striking in my environment design. Hoping to bring some of this energy into Nowhere, MI

Never played, but I did watch a longplay once and there's a part with an old man doing the most insane scream in the world before becoming ripped af

Financial* oops lol

Never played it! Heard good things though!

Foundational to my childhood, and still a fun game to this day. The community trade maps inspired the kind of environment design I would go on to do, particularly where secret hunting is concerned.

A shame it also heralded much of the free-to-play fincancial predation that plagues us now...

McDonald's drive-thru: Oh I almost forgot, here's a straw for your drink sir!

Man who was breast-fed into his 30s: Uhhhh... *tsk* Do you have like, a nipple I could drink this through instead? 😬

Happy birthday!!

Thank you all for your support over the years. It means a lot to us and I want to apologize that things had to go this way for the project.

FDSW's body of work will continue once I've recovered from my illness. Thank you for reading.

10/10 Much like Peeb Adventures I will likely be writing a pre-mortem for Orbo's Exodus down the line too. I had written a lot of planning material for the narrative and I feel like it would be kind of sad if I didn't make an effort to at least share what I had before the project ended.

9/10 The game has been taken off of Steam following this decision. At some point I will probably release what we had of the game before its cancellation, but that's a conversation for another day I reckon.

8/10 I'm making progress, but in the interim it means FDSW development updates will probably be sparse.

7/10 A bout of illness that began roughly at the start of June (and began worsening through July) has stripped me of a lot of my energy, and game development has taken something of a backseat while I work on improving my health.

6/10 I've been developing games long enough to know the consequences of sunk-cost fallacy, and after Drurylain and I discussed it, we felt it was better to let it go instead of knuckling through 2 years of work on a project that neither of us were super zealous about.

5/10 I had run out of money, had to start dedicating my time elsewhere as a result, lost most of my passion for what we were making, and the project was going to take a couple more years to finish.

4/10 The final blow was that the updated production estimates revealed it would've taken us roughly 1.5 - 2 more years to actually wrap things up at the "entrenched" work rate we had settled into for the project.

3/10 I had put a large amount of labor into OE earlier in its production to meet deadlines and began suffering from burnout, and while my discipline kept me working consistently for nearly 8 months through that, the love just wasn't in my heart anymore.

2/10 Orbo's Exodus was initially launched to try and simultaneously address a lot of criticisms (from both the public and ourselves) of the first game while also serving as a financial buffer to allow FDSW to operate fulltime. The game was still far from being out, and I was now out of money.

1/10 At the start of this year, money ran dry for me and I had to move home and reel back from game development for a bit.
