Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 12/09/2026It’s fun how the outer gods are a bunch of unfathomable horrors that no mortal mind could ever even begin to comprehend, and also Nyarlathotep who is just Satan 173

Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 01/03/2026We're zeroing in on the elements we want for the top-down 'navigation mode' of the game. There's no combat, but we still want things to feel dynamic and keep you on your toes. We have some exciting traps coming next! 041

It'll feature designers Ron Gilbert and David Fox, artist Mark Ferrari, and many many more, but only with your help. 38437

Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 07/12/2025Well gosh darn it. The latest ren’py version adds a powerful automated test suite and good OpenGL optimizations, but also breaks the sprite manager class we depend on for the whole top down mode 😔 000

Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 30/11/2025We've been busy working on the script and some top secret UIs, so there hasn't been anything particularly photogenic to share. But here, have a chapter one story beat 041
Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 30/11/2025Playing with multi-level maps, doesn't make that much sense as a library at the moment but the tileset looks great. Guess I can't do much with the space under the overhang though (we don't have "you can see through walls if you're under them") 010

Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 22/09/2025Ok question for the #gamedev crew. I think it would be neat to have an indicator by menu choices that shows dialogue tree flows like “this moves you forward” vs “opens a sub-menu of questions” or “exits a sub-menu”. These placeholder emoji are terrible of course. Thoughts? Good/bad idea? 193

Starspawn: A Miskatonic Mystery @starspawngame.com · 20/08/2025Since we’re funded it’s time to think about stretch goals! Lots of people are saying they’d like voice acting, but that wouldn’t become feasible until like $10k. Intermediate ones we can think of are in-game collectible card game and playable character backstories, what else? #gamedevkickstarter.comStarspawn - Lovecraft Mythos Visual Novel/Dating SimYour scholarship is in danger, your friends aren't human, and something ancient awakens in the dreamlands.
