hi everyone.

you may have noticed i haven't uploaded any games in a year and a half. i've been busy, and i should be less so.  i have deleted most social media except for my new twitter if you care to keep up with me: https://x.com/catsketonline

i have some plans for 2026, and i think dorian fans will enjoy said plans ^_^

my wires are my arteries

over the past year and a half, i've drafted about 3 games about ID, a robot with a human heart and a devotion of a divine machine of flesh and the wire. all of those versions have been scrapped, but i've been working on a pretty large feature. it was originally supposed to be for the robotic romance jam, but i ended up making this a lot bigger than i thought. it's currently sitting at about 6k words, but it's going to be a lot more.

this game has you playing as a researcher for the "world oddity association", a sort of scp-like group that investigates oddities that happen across the world. you came initially to research a bunker in the mountains of northern italy, but the depths of it are guarded by a killer machine. your job is to interview it, talk to it, and coax out the secrets underneath. there's a bit of a romantic spin in it, but it's primarily a series of conversations. it's boring, but it's boring on purpose. ID, the robot in question, will slowly reveal to you his purpose, his origins, and, most importantly, why he guards the innerworkings of the bunker. i'm hoping to get this out in january, maaaybe february. there's a bit he does in the game that i could probably classify as yandere and submit to the jam if i finish it after the yearly yandere jam has started. it's not on purpose, he's just like that.

why am i posting this here? it'll have a cameo from a character related to dorian. not saying anything else.

edit to anyone who got here late i am saying something else cuz i finished his sprite (im still making small edits but u get what i mean)

10:16 remake

zack valence (musician for 10:16 and the voice of dorian) has taken upon himself to revisit 10:16 and make it 3D. in all honesty, i don't really know what to do with a remake or an expanded version. i'm not very proud of the original whatsoever, but dorian is such a...boring? character to me that i'm having some thinking of how to make it better. maybe expand on the other keepers. keepers is a stupid fucking title by the way, why did i call them that.

i also want to redesign dorian. i made him in a fucking lobotomy corporation picrew for a project with a friend i no longer speak to. i want to make him more monstrous and, despite people's love for it, i want the muzzle gone. he sort of gives tumblr sexyman by someone who was really into the evil within for a solid week, and i'm not living for that. will report back on this another day.

if any of you like have anything you'd want to see out of a 10:16 redo tho you should leave a comment. that'd be cool.

fuckin uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i was working on a new aeron game. idk if i'll finish it. see i keep using the same fucking format cuz i think it's awesome and i hate doing gui.

that's it bye
