Memody: Sindrel Song - Available now!
Today, I released the indie game I've spent the better part of the year working on! It's called Memody: Sindrel Song, and it's about mimicking music, the light and dark sides of memory, and finding value and purpose in life despite mental illness.
I've already linked to the trailer from here before, but here it is again:
It's available on Kartridge here: https://kon.gg/31SNfeQ
I'll be releasing on Steam, Android, and iOS in the near future, though I'm not sure exactly when.
I know I'm not exactly active here these days (I wonder who is?), but the hardest part of the whole process is going to be getting the word out about it, so I've got t
Memody: Sindrel Song - Trailer
I rarely visit deviantART these days, but I wanted to post an update about something I wrote in a journal entry... 27 weeks ago, apparently. In that, I talked about starting on a music mimicking indie game with deep lore and themes of mental illness.
Well, I've stuck with it, and I'm planning to release it soon!
It's something that I made while recovering from brain cancer, and while struggling with mental health issues that I've talked about a lot on this site in the past.
I did everything myself: programming, 3D graphics, music composition, concept, writing, etc.
I hope there's something about it that people might enjoy, or which might
Sindrel Song
Happy beginnings of 2019!
In the past few months, I had neurosurgery lasting 8+ hours to treat my brain cancer, and I'm currently undergoing daily radiotherapy to treat what's left of it. It's been a tough recovery, and it's not over yet. So that's fun.
While that's going on, I've been working on this short, fairly simple game, with a deep kind of lore; the kind a lot of people on this site seem to be into (or were back when I visited regularly anyway). Here's a (poor quality) gameplay video:
Basically, you're one of these anthro-like 'sindrel' creatures, and you mimic the melodies of other sindrels in order to make friends with them and b
Update - 2018
It's been a while! I last posted here a couple of years ago to talk about a mobile game that I was making. Sadly, that didn't really work out; I did finish making the first three chapters, and released them for Android (releasing for Apple devices proved more difficult), but real life got in the way and I had to redirect my attention elsewhere. I have a Psychology degree now, though. Plus I found out that I have a brain tumour. Did I write about that here? I don't remember. I'm supposed to be having surgery for it very soon. While I wait, I've been trying to get back into creative stuff, so I thought I might as well post some of it here.

This I can understand this to a point. Though this happens to me more to people I'm already friends with.
I'm not really a social person, and unlike many, I don't really tend towards wanting to be social (changes online, it's weird, guess it's just the safety of privacy?) It's not because I don't like mingling with people, but it's more of a 'yeah, you won't like me so I'll spare you the torture' kind of thinking. I do enjoy talking to the few that I talk to, though, and that brought up another problem with me and being social - I don't like mingling in large groups. Even more so if it involves even one of my friends' friends.
I'm okay with class activities, but there's -always- this one person in class I tend not to have a good relationship with (because screw ups or mentally thinking you did screw up) and solely because I focus on that one person, I tend to hold back on speaking up, try to think my words through before saying anything. This makes a giant lag between what people say and what I would, so I basically get kicked out of the conversation overtime. This gets even worse with even more people I don't have much relation to, and sometimes I just find myself dropping out of the group and then going back in when it's smaller. Because a one-on-one conversation generally bores the other person and I don't know why, I prefer a comfortable number of 2 to 4 people. Any more and word-lag comes back.
I also found that I do it just as often online as I do in real life, majorly during roleplay when I am most often interacting with strangers, and it happens a lot.
I basically over-think 1) ruining an image to a friend's friend, 2) that I screwed up and no one will accept me, and 3) I generally just over-think a lot.
