Hii Tartarus, hope you’re doing well.
i wanted to reach out with you because I played Bloodbark some time ago and i really liked this game. I think the concept of the forest and the trees as a psychological metaphor is genuinely brilliant.
this year I have to present a project for a science fair at my high school, and I want to develop a small psychological horror game focused on environmental awareness (deforestation and human impact on forests).
i’d like to ask if you would be okay with me using a similar core idea (trees with blood-like sap and their hallucinogenic psychological effect) as inspiration, without using any assets or specific characters from Bloodbark.
the game would be free to play and published online, and I would clearly credit Bloodbark as an inspiration.
If you’d prefer that I didn’t use this concept, I completely understand and will adjust my project accordingly.
thank you so much for your time, and for creating something that inspired me so much.
