Nowhere's End Team

Omen

For our other new musician, we have the incredibly talented Yunlong, who you may recognize from his work on NeveN. He's also a great singer, even though it's not shown off here

The Wells

Ash is also working on this piece of music for the Wells. It's not finished yet but it's already fantastic stuff

Pensive

After the release of the first build, two fantastic musicians wanted to join our team. The first musician to join was Ash, or deadposssociety as you might know him. He made this awesome track for pensive moments in the game. Check out more of his music at https://deadposssociety.bandcamp.com/

Progress update

We're about 70% done with everything necessary for this build. Most of the sprite expressions have been put in the script, and I made a couple new Jude sprites, as well as redoing Asher's sprites entirely.

It looks like we're still on track to release in February, and I have a couple more things to share with Patrons soon too. Stuff like a sneak peak at the new cg, maybe a snippet of writing, and a special surprise for all current paid Patrons as a gift for helping out the project so ea...

Development progress

It's been nearly two months since we've released the first build, and it looks like development is going as I'd hoped! Most likely, the next build will be ready in about two more months, as planned.

The new build will have slightly more words than the first one, at about 12,000-13,000. The first build only had around 9,000 words total, since there were a few other things that took a lot of development time. I can't say for sure yet, but I'm guessing that new builds will be around ...

Asher and Jude diner scene

Here's a snippet of the writing for next build. Asher bought Jude a new camcorder for the project just before this scene.

A: “Alright, that’s one thing down then. After this, we just help Clay move and we’re done for the day.”

He looks at me. 

A: “Wanna get something to eat?”
J: “Oh, you can get something if you want.”
A: “Not hungry?”

Honestly, I am. My check clears tomorrow, though, and I don’t have enough on me to affo...

The new build's currently in development. Here's what to generally expect.

The new build is currently being worked on, and is planned to release in the next 3-4 months. What should you expect from the next release of the game?

First off, is updated sprites. I'm planning on updating either the sprites for Sawyer or Asher in my current art style for the next update. The sprites they have currently are from the first time I was working on the project, around 3 years ago, so they could benefit a lot from a rework.

Both Jude and Clay's sprites are already m...

Wip of Jude and Sawyer's CG

Unfortunately I didn't save more wip versions of this other than the sketch, I'll capture more in future CG's

Work-in-progress pictures of the Well CG

Backgrounds are my weakness in art so this one gave me a lot of trouble. I made a ton of changes to the initial sketch, since I felt like the sense of scale on the Well wasn't big enough. I also felt like the people in the background obscured the focus of the composition too much, so I took them out too.

Previous versions of Jude

Jude's changed a lot as a character from when I first designed him three years ago. Sketch #1 is the very first ever sketch of him. I drew it when I was first coming up with the game, whenever it was just a regular dating sim with no horror elements. I soon changed his personality, which is where we get sketch #2.

This sketch was made while I was still trying to make this game the first time as well. Jude's become more recognizable here. He reads like a tired, easily annoyed, so...
