November #1: THE WITCH
Hey everyone! Yer fortnightly dose of game dev coming up.
September #1: IS THIS THING ON?
MAYBE A PUBLIC ALPHA OF BOOK OF HOURS?! Also, our August newsletter goes out.
DAYBREAK IN THE INVISIBLE SERAPEUM
This is the season of the Forge of Days – the hottest August day in the UK for the last decade – so here’s something apposite for you.
JUN #1: LUCIFERA
Hullo, hullo! The wind is whistling outside like a vengance of ghosts; the dull horizon meets a duller sky with a cold, grey kiss of Thames; a lone, heroic birb hunkers stoically in the crevasse we call our balcony.
Mar #2: FLORIMELL
Here’s some new Exile art to make all that production more palatable. Can you figure the DLC out from these…?
FEB #2: DUESSA
I leave you with news that I’m trialling some themes in our monthly newsletter. This month’s theme, being cold and grey and miserable, is love. So if you fancy a quiz which’ll definitively, scientifically tell you whom you should romance next in Cultist Simulator… make sure you’re signed up.
“What are your influences?”
This is probably the question I’ve been asked most over the years, and every time as soon as I answer it I think of someone
State of the Factory: Year 2
Thanks for reading to the end! I hope it’s been useful. And if you’ve stayed with us through the rough times, we really appreciate it, both of us. A heartfelt thank you. It’s probably meant more this year than any time before or since.
Feb #1: CALIDORE & THE BLATANT BEAST
Next sprint – DUESSA – is the last two weeks on BOOK OF HOURS prototyping before we move onto to something rather exciting that we haven’t publicly announced. There’s a bunch of stuff going on behind the scenes in this early, fluid pre-production period that we can’t talk about yet, but… I’m actually excited about it, and this is my LIFE. So I think you will...
‘The Sweet Bones’, Brancrug, June 28th, 1929
From an anonymous F. to Christopher Illopoly, this letter is remarkable for a number of reasons.
Jan #2: BRITOMART
That’s it for this sprint, Beloveds. Happy Year of the Rat!
Jan #1: ACRASIA
If you don’t know what Enigma is…………………. YOU WILL. 🌓
Dec #2: YELLOW
Happy advent, Believers. It’s been a helluva year.
“Got your book. Pretty good condition, too. Bit blurred round the edges, but the little fellow’s taken good care of it…” (January 15th-ish, 1906)
Address is in Vienna. Now you know how I feel about Vienna, never quite comfy there since all that with the Club, but I think, Serena’s a good sort, owe her a favour or two, not so far on the train. Off I pop.
Sept #3: THEODORE
In the meantime, our “State of the Factory: Year 2” should make for interesting reading, if you’re into the business ramifications of pretty much the worst PR a small indie studio could have. AK may turn his hand to some non-game-specific writing, but again, we’ll see what happens.
BOOK OF HOURS Update
Hey everyone. AK’s in a bad place right now and taking some time away from work. As such, BOOK OF HOURS is on pause and the Kickstarter won’t go live today.
