Point and click adventure game about a cat with a haunted telephone send tweet

A collage of doodles in black and a greenish grey depicting an anthropomorphic black cat in a suit and versions items such as a match book, cigarettes, a telephone, a black feather, a coin, and a rabbits foot.

New catt guy just dropped

If you want to see the rest of the combined minute and a half of animation I made during the month of november, go play my game!

Earlier today, I released Utter Rubbish, my entry for the NovemBuck game Jam!

It's a short VN about a robot and a grease monkey deer.

More than that, I used the jam as an excuse to learn blender and animation... lmao.

(posting some of my favorite segments below)

Just finished my novembuck... Gonna wait until tomorrow when it's not three in the morning to do a last read through and post it though...

a smear frame showing an anthropomorphic dear staring straight at the camera, mid being slapped

most serious image

deer mode : )

so close to finished with my novembuck....

cw blood

a blender image of a room with multi colored paint on the walls and cold purple lighting with arm bands of light coming through a window.

blender lighting is very fun, though, I have to say.

An abstract digital painting depicting streaks of blue yellow and orange

The beach : )

I've ended up doing a decent chunk of the more complicated 2d stuff in clip studio just because that's what i'm more familiar with.

although it is primarily a 3d program, so I understand why it is the way it is.

it's a learning curve, I guess, is what I'm saying.

but it's also extremely frustrating in a lot of ways. i'm sure to some degree it's just inexperience, but there are a lot of things, particularly with the grease pencil, where I'll feel like I just can't easily make the program work the way I want/expect it to.

now that I'm about a third of the way through all the assets i'm planning to make, blender review:

deeply powerful tool with so many cool tricks and things you can do with it, and the ability to use a 3d camera and set with 2d drawing and assets is super awesome.

👍

thanks for the kind words, glad my story resonated with people

An anthropomorphic deer and a robot with an old TV for a head in a sketchy pencil style

Some Guys : )

okay, I think the scene is pretty much good, now I just need to put the guys in it.

a blender render of a room. there is a table, a handful of boxes, and some sheet metal. sunlight filters into the room through slats.

Perhaps using novembuck as an opportunity to learn blender isn't like... a great idea... but I'm having a good time!

the same blender render of a room, with more lighting and stylization

haha, if you will

lmao

My novembuck script is done, now I just have to do the absolutely stupid thing I decided to do for how it's gonna look.

After October I really want to do novembuck but I feel like my idea is way to ambitious... We'll see. ...

a black and white image of a girl, with yellow pictures of bees overlayed behind and in front of her,

a black and white image of four friends standing in the dark, talking.

four friends with flashlights wander down a dark hallway, looking around.

Two girls, an anthro bear and a human, sit beneath a window, talking.

Two figures huddle on the floor while two of their friends appear in a doorway with a flashlight. the scene is rendered in black and white.

A black and white hand reaches out over a collage of yellow images of bees

a dark black and white view up a chimney

a black and white image of a house in the dark. a girl stands off to the right.

Results of my 24 hour self imposed game jam:

4.5k words, 30 separate CGs, and a lot of sleep deprivation.

Gonna share some of my favorite images from my haunted house visual novel below
