Teaser: Those Dark Days

Added 2021-12-01 02:23:34 +0000 UTC

Hey, everyone! Bad news!

I hate to be doing this but I came here to tell you that I'm still finishing some artwork details and programming of the game! I will stay awake for a couple of extra hours to check out some typos and do some extra cleaning, but I'm pretty sure I won't be releasing it today. I wasn't going to say anything, but I didn't want to feel extremely guilty for not talking to you all.

More: This whole Halloween/alternative universe idea came out bigger than I had imagined: the story was so long that I had to cut off some dialogues, which I'll work on in the future; I made the artwork using a whole different technique, which took a little extra time; and the whole programming was kinda troublesome.

I decided to make some changes in the way that I was developing this version because I felt like it deserved a different approach from the original Those Days. A different tone, if you will. But it ended up proving to me that it definitely requires more attention and, therefore, time, so I will only work on this game when I get more time. I could even learn some Unity to add some minigames to it! Who knows!

Anyways, worry not, these ideas are for another time in the near future! This Renpy version will be posted here in a couple of days!

And, as some sort of "apology", this is one of the scenes that are featured in the game:

Also, with the release of this alternative universe, I'll give you a rundown of my plans for December, a poll for the Xxxmas special art, and a pre-schedule for next year!

As always, thank you for your patience!
