Monthly Update - Game announcement.
🕑 Added 2025-03-28 13:51:41 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
Things have been a bit quiet over here, so let's give an update.
First and foremost, I am working on the next Haven update.
I will try to have it done by the end of the month, but it might be delayed a bit.
But there is something else I have been working on.
I know that a lot of you really loved The Mansion.
That game was a lot of work, but both Akumakiro and I really enjoyed making it.
So, I talked him into making another game.
Unlike with The Mansion, we will take things at a different pace (we both ended pretty burned out trying to reach the deadline).
At the moment, the new game is called:
Though the name and logo might change.
The game will be short, but if things work well, we plan on making more episodes.
Now I'll show some of the character design/art.
Miles is the main character of this game.
He recently graduated from the Conglomerate Academy as an Engineer.
He is a familiar face for anyone that has played my other games, since this is not the first time he has shown up in my games.
Here are some different versions of Miles (I find it so weird to see both versions of the character side by side, but that's on me, because I always try to make things in different styles).
Here is the design I made for Akumakiro next to the sprite he rendered.
I'm really happy with the way he translated everything into pixel art. Sometimes it can be really hard to do details (the badge for example is not something that can be simplified in such a constrained space).
Adam is our lovable himbo.
Despite working in security, Adam always tries to avoid violence, mostly because people break so easily.
Unlike Miles that is a regular human, Adam is a Custom.
Customs are humans that have been enhanced in some way.
His customizations give him great strength and durability, things that help him at work.
Just like Miles, Adam comes from another game. He is originally an NPC in Magical Battler, and the other art is from something I never finished where he would have been supporting cast.
Here is the sketch I did and Akumakiro's version.
I really like how his version has beefier arms and how kind he looks.
You can tell he is friendly, but not someone you want to anger.
And the last character I will introduce today, Rok'Toh.
He is a science officer.
Rok'Toh is a SPORK (all caps, the meaning of which has gone from Space Orc, to Space Pork Orc to Space Pig Organism with Robust Karnassials, and might change again).
SPORKs have a short fur covering their bodies, have tusks and pointy ears.
I have had this idea of furry green orcs that are a mix of the western orc and the ones found in Japanese games that are more piggy like.
Despite the very similar names, Rok'Toh is not Rokhton the guard from The Mage Apprentice pictured above. I know it is confusing and it showcases my lack of originality when naming characters.
When talking with Akumakiro about his design, we discussed about how it would be interesting for his proportions to be less human.
In the end we decided to make his arms more gorilla inspired.
I think he looks really cute and I hope you all like it.
If you guys want to, I'll try to talk more about the setting ideas, or why everyone is wearing that thing on their wrist.
And now I'm off to keep working on Haven and hoping it will be done before monday.
Hugs,
CæsarCub!

Magical Battler is on indefinite hiatus. That game has more complexities than I have time for at the moment. The only way I am able to make games like this one is because I am having outside support with the art.

nice to see you have more games coming up. that kind of leaves me wit hthe question though if magical battler is getting any updates or if it's considered to be on hiatus for an unspecified timeframe
