Did you know The Pitied is also a webcomic of sorts? While I work on the eventual redo of the game, you can currently read up to the end of the Ben Jr. Saga right now! You can view the story and more over at thepitied.wixsite.com/the-pitied #webcomic #blender3d #3dart #scriptwriting

A recent user review of our indie mystery adventure game put it this way: "Playing this game is like a rainy Sunday evening wrapped up in a blanket watching Columbo." If that sounds as appealing to you as it does to me, we're 25% off on Switch in the US for the next week 🌞

So, what if we start from the very beginning? Introducing The Pitied: Remix! This isn’t a remake or a remaster, this is everything. The full version of The Pitied. Updates will be scarce for the time being, but there will be more to discuss soon. #JRPG #RPGMaker #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Jace and Luke greeting each other at a graveyard. They bond over their dead relatives…weird.

Fun fact: The game version of The Pitied only covers 17 chapters from the original script. These are the middle chapters with the end of the game being the halfway point of the story. There are 54 chapters, which means 37 chapters are still a secret. 👀 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #RPGMaker #JRPG

While I work on the wallpapers for The Pitied, here are some old wallpapers that are loosely connected to The Pitied. The first is from when Jason and Anthony fought a dragon on a remote island together. The second is Archer trying to be cool. #gamedev #blender #wallpaper #indiegame #indiedev

Jason and Anthony posing. Jason has his left hand up, forming a Rhythm Shift. Anthony has his back faced towards the camera, but he’s looking over his shoulder. He has a Blackout in his right hand.

Archer posing with a Beam Rifle in his right hand. Yes, that’s a Gundam back there. No, there were no Gundams in The Pitied. I am so sorry to disappoint.

I’ve been too busy tackling my professional life that I didn’t notice that The Pitied has been downloaded over 50 times! To celebrate, I’ll be releasing wallpapers of the main cast of characters! Thank you everyone that has downloaded or viewed The Pitied! #gamedev #blender #indiedev #indiegame

Jace raising his metallic left fist to strike a pose. There’s a tree in the background with a small pool of water in front of it.

It’s hot out here! It feels like the room’s on fire! 🔥 Oh, look at that. That room actually is on fire. Here’s a preview of an upcoming animation featuring fan favorite character: Ana! (Very proud of this lighting btw.) #blender #OC #fire #scifi #preview

Skipping Chapter 2, we get to another major event. A few days later, a stranger attacks Luke with seemingly no motivation. After Jace intervenes, the stranger explains that they were assigned by their boss to get rid of anyone who has “powers”. #blender #OC #3Danimation #fightscene #scifi

So, I said no more W.A.W. stuff for a while, but this is a project I made that I wanted to share. I’ve been playing Dokkan Battle for about a decade now and one day thought: “How can I make this about W.A.W?” (Kidding) 2 months and 7 animations later, here’s the result. #blender #dokkanbattle

Screenshot from 'To Find an Answer'. Ariadne Véritas, speaker of the Great Church of Lavitásphera, is seen alongside a group of church members and soldiers, visiting the sector of Agrarian and offering guidance. She says to Priestess Pirita:

"Let's hope the Gods will it, Pirita.
Let's hope our missions truly help these people."

It’s not often you get to make a friend in a cemetery. While mourning the loss of his dad, Jace meets a new face. They share their pasts and get to know each other more from there. I’m trying out animating again. This time, it’s Chapter 1 of The Pitied! #blender #3Danimation #OC #scifi #rain

Thank you for a wonderful 2025! Warriors Across Worlds was created this year which made The Pitied feel somewhat left out. Because of that, 2026 will involve…both. As a new adventure begins for some, others will receive a remix of sorts. #blender #JRPG #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Today’s forecast involves a 100% chance of ruining your enemy’s day! Evan’s whipping up a windstorm known as, “Eye of the Storm” while summoning an, “Overcharged Outburst” of lightning. Hitting enemies multiple times is also certain in this forecast! #JRPG #indiegame #indiedev #blender #gamedev

Evan raising his hand in the air to summon a massive branch of lightning. His other arm is coated in ice, although there is no name for this attack. It just looks cool. Behind him is a MASSIVE tornado.

083

The Pitied/W.A.W. @thepitied.bsky.social · 13/12/2025

Think you’re fast enough to dodge this? Think again! “Fatal Slice” is Chole’s ultimate move and it’s a guaranteed hit that makes your enemy bleed. It’s also one of the hardest hitting attacks in the game. 🩸 9,999? Coward numbers. This hits even harder. #JRPG #blender #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Chole striking a pose after slicing a deep wound into the enemy. Cool scythe!

093

The Pitied/W.A.W. @thepitied.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

Today’s ultimate attack is a spooky one. 👁️‍🗨️ It’s Valorie with the terrifying, “Sinister Summon”. This horrific attack hits all enemies and leaves them with countless status effects. Make your foes tremble in fear as you release the evil spirits within! #JRPG #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #blender

Valorie, surrounded by freaky-looking eyes, gets ready to summon a creature more horrifying than the mind can conceive.

092

The Pitied/W.A.W. @thepitied.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

NEXT! Here we have Archer lighting the enemy up while being swallowed within darkness. This is, “Eternal Night” and “Full Metal Jacket”. F.M.J. is a guaranteed hit and has a high chance of landing critical hits! Eternal Night blinds all foes. #blender #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #JRPG

Archer using a whole-ass rifle to shoot the enemy. He’s surrounded by his attack, “Eternal Night”. This drowns him and the enemy in darkness

0134

The Pitied/W.A.W. @thepitied.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

Back at it again with another render of a character’s ultimate attack! Today we have Anthony with, “Time Slice”. This attack leaves your enemy frozen in time, allowing you to continue attacking without having to worry about the enemy’s turn! #JRPG #indiedev #blender #gamedev #indiegame

Anthony slicing the screen in two. The top and bottom of the render are not aligned, making it look cool.

A massive clock behind Anthony represents him being the Time Warrior, obviously.
