Hopepunk City is my next game, and even I admit it is a strange one crossing multiple genres. I have released a demo on .
My first post about this game was . My REAL first post about this game was about , with the theme “I don’t care if it is popular or not, I’m just doing it for me.”
Hopepunk City was made in 2020 during a global pandemic, racial riots, and a very contentious election, and I had all that in mind while writing it.
I’ve decided to release a demo version of the game consisting of the mostly full first third of the game on . In testing, I’ve come to realize that this portion of the game is a bit dark.
In fact, revisiting my 4 previous games, none of the games have been as dark as this game currently seems. What the hell am I thinking?
At the same time, I am looking at what I have left to work on in this game. I have about 18 or so scenes left, that I have been kind of avoiding. As it turns out, these scenes demand to be fun and lighthearted to reverse the gloominess of the game so far.
In other words, I spent a good part of a year perfecting the dark parts of the game while avoiding writing and illustrating the fun parts of the game. I am starting to question my own sanity.
