#game dev thoughts #The Creatures From Below #Ren'Py
This was my first game jam and I LOVED IT. I'm developing another Ren'Py game and I didn't realize that I needed a good break until I saw the game jam call for an underwater horror. I feel like I'm getting better at coding, the game engine, and being creative in storytelling. I like that the game engine challenges devs to think like a programmer - especially with screens.
For this game, I chose to make the gameplay very simple in order to stay within the game timeframe. One thing I loved was that because it's monster-POV I added "talking" sounds that were gibberish to give an immersive feel to the dialogue. I am totally doing this in other games!
What do you think of the game? Which ending is your favorite?
