Hellooooo! 

Just posting a quick ramble about WSC.

For anyone new, WSC (When Stars Collide) is a side project I've been working on here and there for the past year and a half/nearly two years. It's a science fiction project and I work on it basically late at night and on weekends...

Something New!

Hi everyone! A quick non-devlog from me this Friday.

Today I want to shout out a friend's project - Infinite Stars.

This is a science fiction game (more space themed than GS) that they have been doing solo for a while.

It's in-progress but is worth checking out if you like SF or are looking for new things to play. The game is f...

The Next Project? =O

I still have a fair amount of work to do for GS - probably close to a year of project development, then additional time to get KS rewards like the art book and lore book done. (The total writing for GS will be 130 chapters and 82% of those are complete now!) =O

However,despite that there's still a lot of work to be done, I'm already puttin...

Quill Snippets (video clips)

Just posting a few clips from the game - some funny, some cute. 

None of these include major spoilers but do hint at some of the plot goings on or relationship silliness between Morgan and Quill. 

Hope you find them enjoyable!

These are the steps I usually follow for creating a new sprite.
