It’s been very cool to see everyone sharing their early influences, here are mine. These aren’t necessarily the games that had a massive impact on my own work, but all fundamentally important to me.
The 9 games that shaped who I am: Mortal Mombat 2, Super Mario Bros, Doom (1993), Myst, Space Quest 4, Leisure Suit Larry 1, Warcraft 2, Planescape Torment, Quake

Venturing into the unknown. Uncovering strange encounters. Trying to stay one step ahead of catastrophe. A regular day in the life of a gamedev, but also the #CurseOfResthaven loop. Our island map is still very much WIP, but the atmosphere is already hitting the way we hoped. #gameart #indiedev
Alt text: A fantasy-themed map titled "Aurellian Isle of Resthaven" shows available expeditions marked by cards connected with lines. The map has a mysterious and adventurous tone, with icons indicating various locations. The background is dark, with scattered objects like books and compasses.

You might ask, why is Mother Seed age restricted? There's a toggle to enable explicit content that makes the character nude at all times. This is the canonical way to play the game. I will not be taking questions at this time. #adventuregame #pointandclick #horror #nsfw #indiedev #wishlistwednesday
