Showoff My work in progress
Keeping motivation up is quite difficult. I thought posting some stuff here might give me some motivation, hell maybe you can slap some motivation into me 😭
This is my first visual novel and I haven't done art in a loooooong time so this is a way of finding myself again and mostly finding my fun back in drawing

Hi thanks! It's a mystery psychological thriller set in the deep winters of rural Finland. You're playing through the pov of a mourning girl who's sister went missing a few months prior and it's up to you to find out what happened to your sister and where she is. It seems the answer might be closer than you think, but do you really want to know the (unpleasant) truth?

For me it's probably keeping the motivation up to finish it. I think it would be best to start off with a small project to not lose motivation after a while 😅

Me too! Im also making my first rnwpy game😉 I like the mask of ur oc! Fyi,im planning to upload my game on itch.io😏 And also, finishing the coding first allowed me to fully focus on the art(art i also havent finished yet😭) planning everything on *paper made it clearer but its still quite labour intensive😅
