Wondrous Christmas

Dear Insane Children, 

(I am making this post public as a Christmas present to all Alice fans out there - Merry Christmas)

From myself, Martin, Joey, Sonny, Omri, and Lulu... Happy Holidays! 

We hope you're all cozy and warm on this Christmas Day! Myself and Yan are anchored off the coast of Ko Lanta in Thailand aboard Chaos. Our shakedown sail with the new name and numerous upgrades has gone smoothly thus far. The weather is cool and calm - perfect for tuning everything and getting in some much needed R&R. 

Progress on Asylum hasn't taken a holiday... Joey and I continue our back and forth regarding ideas for the depression area of Alice's psyche. Here's what came from our previous discussion... 

After the holiday we should see a logo/key image from Sonny. Omri is working on Angelababy as Alice (for the film pitch). And Joey will continue work on location and game mechanic themes. I want to start nailing down the pitch outline for EA. All of this and more will be discussed in the next live stream from Shanghai. Expect that during the first week of 2018! 

From Chaos with Love, 

-American

Happy new year, Mcgee and teams. Ty for answer of super chat. I using only 3 dollar for super chat but i'll support more by patron. I Guess Kat dennings are recommendation of alice's actress. And As i said I hope you guys know there is korean fans that supporting team mcgee and alice series. Keep it up with your works.

OMG please please make this a reality! the art looks gorgeous and i've been a fan of your alice games for years! please please make this happen!

Happy Holidays from freezing cold New York City at -7C!(At the time of posting.) Seeing a lot of interesting ideas of depression from Joey. I really like the one showing a London street, I would like to see more concept art of London. Even though Wonderland is a major location for the game, there should be some London locations as part of the stage where Alice is trying to make sense of reality. Looking forward to more art! Part 2 of my comment! After talking to someone I know who has depression, they say that at times people will feel loneliness and isolation, so maybe we could make an area or a particular part of the game where Alice will feel isolated from the rest of the world and Wonderland. Something like a barren wasteland. They also said that feeling helpless does lead to feeling hopeless. In concept art C, Joey have the idea of helplessness, where you cannot kill the big shadow. We could use this as the main enemies mechanic for the depression stage of grief. Part 3 of my comment! Since rainy weather is sometimes associated with gloomy/depressing moods, you could make parts of London rainy and quite grey and foggy during the depression stages. We can also have the Londoners ignore Alice as if she is not there. Here, we can have Alice quite helpless and have to figure out her next course of action with little clues is given by the NPC that she talks to during the story. Part 4-* Nah... I think I will stop here.

Please macgee make it wee love alice

For the depression part I should say a eternal ash-rain would be a nice setting, the fire has gone but all that remains is dark and cold... burned down, something that makes you sad just at looking at it, colorless. could use some more Puzzle driven gameplay there, you know... depression is just like a big Question Mark on your head while you do nothing about all the things you are worried/have questions about it.

Merry christmas, hope you had a good one! (: Intriguin, as ever. The ballon-toy-tree is a really cool idea! I'm looking forward to the next livestream, to catch up on all the progress! :D

Have you ever heard of Miriam Leone? Italian actress and Miss Italia 2008. She played in the english tv show about the Medici, but also in the Italian show "Non Uccidere", I think she looks like a perfect Alice in that show, her face at least, maybe Omri can try something with her as well

Love the creepy toy tree, the headless doll on the rocking horse beside it adds to the creep level. Nice to see the umbrella back again in some form also. Hope you and your team are all having a wonderful holiday :).

Happy holidays everyone! Wow everything looks fantastic!

Merry Christmas!! Yay new post! Wow lots of stuff too 0.0 love the balloon doll tree and I'm interested to see what Omri does with Angelbaby as Alice
