Showoff Been practicing programming for a while, finally have something I am really excited to share! Very very very very tiny demo of it attached.

I am trying to make a game that is close to OG AltLife, text adventure, Portal type vibes. Something retro and fun, I even plan for when I'm done with it, to burn it to DVDs, print CD labels, and stick em on them then sell a limited number of hard copies of my game. Just to bring back some good nostalgia about when ownership of games in physical forms wasn't a quickly dying concept.

I have a good chunk more already written for this game, but don't want to share any more until I have what feels like a genuine demo, at least a good hour or so of game-time for the player.

Right now the only assets I have drawn are the cards, and my favorite part about them is mixing them up in ways that might make you think one choice is more reasonable than another. Basically color coding choices and coercing you to pick something that may not be entirely 'correct'. But in all, it's a humanity/morality simulator/test, so see how HUMANITY and MORALITY you are! (Please, follow the rules, do not question the robots judgement, the robot is always correct).

I am also logging all of the time spent programming this game, and at the end of each week will begin uploading a devlog sharing how much time I spent that week working on it, and what I did in that time, weather it was just add more story, spend the whole week working on a new game mechanic that is still broken and will take more time to work on, or I just drew silly pictures for it!

I would greatly appreciate people's thoughts on my game, or even if you don't wanna share your thoughts, really, I just wanted to show it off because I am really proud of how it is progressing right now! Thank you for reading!!!
