We’re more than just an indie video game design team, we do multimedia storytelling. Not only are we making story-driven video games, we’re also telling a dire multiverse of stories through fiction, a podcast, a tabletop roleplaying game (RPG), and even a tarot deck. These are all works in progress, so sign up for the newsletter to stay abreast of our news.
We’re making a 13-episode motion web comic as well as a game. The comic will serve as a prelude to the game and will tell the story of Valerie Matthews, a young school teacher who gets in over her head with the family of one of her students. The comic is titled, “Death of a School Teacher: A Dire Dilemma.”

We hit a milestone today. A small one, but an encouraging one, nevertheless. We are more than halfway done with the concept art for our environments. This means we’re ready to begin applying line art to the concepts, breaking them out into layered PSDs, and planning exactly what we want to see in each room.
