One of the wilder things I’ve done so far this year is participate in a GAME DEV CHALLENGE over on @Blackthornprod’s channel! I helped write the script and plot for a visual novel—a murder mystery set in a high fantasy world.
My friend (and extremely talented writer) Dryden invited me to participate, and he built the story world. Dryden is developing his own indie game right now and is also an incredible composer, so definitely check out his channel @LighthoofDryden and the other devs from the video!
Looking for a quick, addictive, and challenging little game to play in your browser? You should give the Poor Bunny game online a try! The premise is simple: you're a bunny, and you need to collect all the carrots on the screen while avoiding various traps and obstacles that appear. It starts easy but quickly ramps up in difficulty, testing your reflexes and pattern recognition. It’s one of those “just one more try” kind of games that’s perfect for a short break or when you want some lighthearted fun.
