This is actually the best moment for me, as indie. What I’m talking about? About the period of time between a finished project, and the start of the new one.
Indeed I’ve officially finished writing all the texts needed for Heileen 2: The Hands Of Fate, even if of course I haven’t finished the game itself yet. But from now on, it is just a matter of waiting for the voices / missing art, and playtesting (but I’ve already done that a lot while writing the story). So while there’s still some work to do, nothing that really require my creativity.
Instead, right now I’m thinking about what to do next. I have several other projects going on, but some are long-term ones, or are carried on by other people (I’ve other writers working on more games). For sure the first thing will be to implement a small mini-farming game for the Flower Shop dating sim, and then… don’t know. I am evaluating several ideas right now, including some light-horror stories, an investigative one, a sci-fi team combat based game with story, and more.
It’s going to be a fun end of the month 🙂
The nice art you see in this page is from another project I started, called “The Flower Shop”. It features cute manga art from Deji and writing from Sake-bento. It tells the story of a lazy young man, Steve, that gets “exiled” into a farm with his old uncle Sam, because of his poor grades at school.
