We're going to refresh this account with an announcement: Reincarnation Trial is on hiatus! (Rumi and Vauhn are going on vacation while we clean the game up) We've realized this was too big of a project for our first game, so we're changing some things: 🧵↓ #gamedev #indiedev #ReinTrial

Digital of Rumi dragging Vauhn across the ground towards a bus, to go on vacation. The entire piece has a dramatic perspective; Vauhn is nearest to the viewer with his feet and hands dragging across the ground as he's sitting up slightly, being dragged away by his collar with a defeated look on his face. Rumi stands behind him gripping his collar, with her heels pushing into the ground beneath her, and she looks excited. She's wearing a tropical shirt and flowy skirt with a sun hat, while Vauhn is wearing his ordinary work clothes in protest. He's being dragged down a dirt path that splits a field of grass in two, leading to the bus in the distance among colorful flowers. A green road sign in the nearby background reads "HIATUS FOR REINCARNATION TRIAL" with an arrow pointing towards the bus, where several figures are waiting to board beneath the harsh sunlight.

There are many, maaany little designs for some little guys we've been working on the past year. One of them is the guy that inspired the rest 🐥 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #godotengine #pixelart #indiedev

A screenshot from the drawing program Aseprite, showing pixel art of four different characters. All of them are red, blobby masses with small masks and thin arms made of gold.

We've made a small update to our website - we now have an Art Gallery! 📷🌱 This will act as a place to view all art for the game, in addition to future game projects. (See our bio for the link)

The rough workings of our dialogue system are in place (with another guest appearance from Vauhn!) Check the replies for the full video 👇 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #godotengine #pixelart

Screenshot from the game Reincarnation Trial. Two characters stand in a library; dialogue boxes appear on screen with a character on opposites sides. A sketch of Rumi looks irritated on the left, as a sketch of Vauhn on the right is saying "Who's running off? We agreed to take a look around, and that's what I'm doing."

Welcome to the library! The system still need a lot of refining, but we've been setting things up so that Rumi can browse through some bookshelves - the player can move her hand (as a cursor) to select something and interact with it. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #godotengine #pixelart

We've been busy updating some graphics around the office, along with door transitions and reactive signs - video in the replies! #screenshotsaturday #GodotEngine #gamedev #pixelart

A gray-haired girl is standing in the middle of an office. In the center is the front desk with a computer and picture frames, and a large glowing black sign with gold text on the wall. Two doors are on either side of it, and a vending machine directly to the left. Spotlights make the doors and front desk brighter than the rest of the room.

Meet Vauhn! You won't see him again for a little while, but he's certainly on his way back from his lunch-break. (He doesn't even work here) #screenshotsaturday #GodotEngine #gamedev #pixelart

Screenshot of pixel art from the game "Reincarnation Trial". Two characters are in front of some cubicles. On the left is a black man with dreads in a side ponytail, in formal work clothing, shrugging tiredly. On the right is a tan-skinned girl with silver hair, in a tank top and shorts, holding up an upside-down peace sign.

A promotional image for the game "Reincarnation Trial".
The image is framed with black vines that have purple, upside-down heart-shaped fruits attached to their ends. A shadow looms behind a girl on the right side. In the center of the image, a diverse group of people along with two creatures are behind the girl and the shadow, with a TV-screen-like texture overlaid on top of them. The text vertically on the right of the image says "Reincarnation Trial".
