I got really emotional tonight about how awesome indie game dev is and how incredible it is that people can make their ideal games into a reality. Please keep working your games, no matter how big or small your progress is. You doing this benefits us all. I'm so proud of you, no matter what. 🥹

To celebrate all the recent love for #Hoi and #MoonChild, I fired up @aseprite.org to create some new Hoi and MC pixel art, for the first time in ± 30 years. 😃💚 For the scenery, I used my tiles for the Amiga version, combined with the Windows version's mountains and night sky background.

Pixel artwork, depicting a scene from the 1990s Moon Child game, featuring the Hoi and Moon Child characters.

really good post that i really need everyone to absorb

tumblr text post by spiribia: I think it's fine if somebody describes a piece of media as life changing and earth shattering and bone shaking and it doesn't do much for you. I don't think the person who said that owes you an apology or anything. that's just the nature of people being different people

Y O U - FAQ I also want to thank everybody for the support on this game! This game is one of my passion projects, and it's a very personal game to me. I am really happy that it seems like most are excited for this game ^^. I really hope you all enjoy the demo when it releases. #indieDev #YOU

FAQ:

Q: "Is this a horror game?"

A: I don't consider it one. It has horror like elements and randomness to it, but I never intentionally go out of my way to make something jump out loudly at the player. Everything "horror" is either environmental, or some imagery that can be found in the game. Horror is not the focus of this game, the elements are just for world building and making it even more weird / unusual feeling!

-

Q: "Are there any jumpscares?"

A: There are no intentional jumpscares in this game. There are moments and things that can happen to make the player feel uneasy while playing or to throw them off, but nothing meant to intentionally startle the player. If anything comes off as such when the demo releases I ask that people tell me so I can adjust it accordingly.

-

Q: "Is this bait and switch?"

A: The bait and switch was that I teased it like it was gonna be like every other horror game only for it to be a horror-inspired 3D platformer. The game is very direct on what it is from the start and stays focused from start to finish despite its weird and random nature.

-

Q: "Will you release the song?"

A: Yes! I'm releasing the main music featured in the demo + the trailer song once the demo releases on Friday! (technically most of the music is already fully composed, but I don't want to spoil anything)

-

Q: "Why is the game named "Y O U"?"

A: The game is about the fox-like creature who is named "You"! However, the game is also about you the player. I felt like "Y O U" was the perfect name for the game, because it's right to the point, it's about the both of you!

-

Q: "Steam release?"

A: At a later point in time there will be ^^. I haven't fully setup a steam developer account yet, so I'm waiting to finish that up before I publish to steam! There is also a fee to upload games, so I'm saving up a bit.

Useless observation, but it's funny how everytime an old IP gets a revival there are like 10 people being like "Eww, terrible game that nobody likes" and at least as many people being like "Oh wow this is my childhood, cool that it's coming back" and maybe, you know, should be considered
