Do you use Twine to make these stories? And what software do you use to draw in the art?
hello!
- for the engine: i’ve used a very early version of inkrunner before it even had a name!
- for art: the character portraits were drawn in clip studio paint, the other images are creative commons images edited with truegrit’s halftone zine machine on photoshop.
I want to thank you for this game, I played your CYCLE by chance ages ago, and returned to see what's new. This game blew me away, the things you do with text, and the audiovisual direction! It's like I watched something between A Field in England and some old symbolist movie, only it's also a layered, enveloping book. Oo-wee that was a ride.
...And a few trips to my search engine of choice, too. LOVE that you explored the Occitan setting, this adds such a powerful, timeless social dimension to the story, it all comes together without being on the nose. The horror of power!
Also as I understand you are the host of the Manifesto Jam? Thanks for that, too! What a productive and punk idea, and some really good stuff there
thank you! i enjoyed watching a field in england for the first time after i made this and being like ooohh…
yeah the provence setting… i’m from paris and always found it interesting/confronting that france as a country centralised its power to the point of suppressing any dialects within its borders, and i wanted to explore the transitory period when all of that started to get a lot of momentum. always love when my work leads to people opening up wikipedia or whatever.
and yeah manifesto jam was a great time, thanks for the kind words!
