Hey folks! Not in a position to hire *yet*, but looking for folks to keep in mind who are particularly good at UI art/design! Must have previous XP in making UI for games (even jam games). So if that's you, please send me a link to your portfolio/work so we can keep it on file. NO AI. <3 🎨 ~ ÚMK

Our game Eyes of Hellfire is set in the infamous Hellfire Club, a real-life location in #Dublin that you can hike up to - it's very cool (and spooky!) @lenhaunts.bsky.social interviewed archaeologist @neiljackman.bsky.social about the club & his archaeological dig there!! youtu.be/XKtyf57X4A4?...

Today is the day our game, Eyes of Hellfire, launches in early access. 🎉 To mark the occasion I thought I might share a bit of a thread 🧵 plotting some of the milestones of development of the game from a narrative design perspective.

We're releasing Eyes of Hellfire in early access this week. To quiet the internal screaming of "OMGITSNOTREADYTHEBUGSTHEBUGS!!" I've been looking back at the progress of development. Here's the first video of a playable prototype I have saved, from Oct '23. A lot has changed but the core is there

#EyesofHellfire time-lapse. This little fella is the de-facto mascot of the player characters in our new #horror game. Bad things might happen to them.💀 The tune is from our fantastic composer Gary Keane. Jaunty! #gameart #gamedev
