An info card about Alien from Alien Incrementum. Name: Alien Pronouns: he/him VA: Jason Hall Birthday: Unknown Zodiac Sign: Unknown Height: 6โ6 (6'10 with antennae) Occupation: Scout Interests: psychology, soap operas, peoplewatching. Two sentence blurb: A crash landed individual from a distant, militaristic planet. A gentle giant with endless curiosity and a big vocabulary, Alien wishes to learn as much as he can about human society.
Old concept art of Alien.
A CG of Al standing in a toilet, T-posing.
Silly meme art of Al as a four-legged creature trying to drink pepto bismol out of a cup.
We really, really like our guy Al from our visual novel Alien Incrementum. He used to be more of a small gremlin OC before we hit him with the bishounen beam for the visual novel, lol! He's awkward and usually a little confused (Earth is weeeird), but he has a big heart!
A banner image featuring all the characters currently in visual novel Alien Incrementum.
On the shores of a quiet beachside town, best friends Adrianne Vinh and Margot Mackay meet an alien, confused and stranded. Welcoming him into their life, the young women are tasked with teaching him the ways of humanity.

A screenshot of Love Like Ice's demo. A man wanders through a snow storm. The Narrator says: "Obscured by the snow squall, you watch as the voice's owner stumbles through the storm."
A screenshot from Stars and Silence. The text says: "โMrrrp~?โ From around your neck unravels Cheema. It gives a great yawn and looks about its surroundings. The dim bioluminescence emanating from its fur is welcome in this darkness, casting shadows on the intricate metal holding you in place. It seems to be frozen mid-release. A small opening at the bottom is just out of reach." Two options are presented to the player: "Maneuver out of the cryosleep pod." or "Direct Cheema out through the crack."
Tomiko, Chihiro and Raika stand against an opulent room. The text says, "You are cordially invited to the Black Rose Revue."
A screenshot from Alien Incrementum. Two women take a selfie together, with Margot saying: "Lemme just adjust some setting real quick! I want this one to be great!"

I DID ANOTHER GAME JAM
For @thatgamecompany.com's #thatgamejam. I dreamed up a, overscoped adventure about death, life, and birth.
What @jam-bone.itch.io, @phoenixdsteele.bsky.social, @joecalderone.bsky.social, and @sia-fbx.bsky.social made with me was a cute, fun romp up a coupla stairs.
Enjoy!
Thank you to everyone who auditioned for our last Alien Incrementum casting call! We're so excited to go through everyone's takes! ๐
