It’s been weeks of drawing and redrawing rock tiles with my lovely assistant. We’ve created the craggiest, most inhospitable rocks the underworld can handle. Now it’s just a matter of cutting the stones and placing them in spritesheets, a Sisyphean task. I’ve been promising a video and a demo and they’re coming; these spritesheets are the last wall to hurdle before you’ll all be playing Afterdeath for yourselves.
I can’t wait to flee Hades and leave the dark textures and flat rock tiles behind for the curvy contours of Valhalla’s sunny world tree and raucous beer-spilling viking warrior animations.
Last month I mentioned Reus. Well you can get it 25-50% off on Steam right now during the summer sale. I bought it but have had way too many rocks to draw to take up governance of a planet, so you should play it and tell me how much fun I’m missing.
