I didn't know about knytt stories when it came out, i only found out about it a year ago on jayisgames. I sorta wanted to make a custom level or two, even though it's kinda dead. Would anyone be interested in doing another knytt of the month klub thing? i'll probably do something either way, maybe i'd even try to make one that would take longer than two hours, but it would be cool to do it along with other people.
I've been an iOS game developer for a few years now, but this is my first solo and PC project. It's a simple puzzle platformer, but with a twist you may not expect. Enjoy!
For explanation of the subtext please read the attached ARTIST-STATEMENT txt file.
A Klikmas Game for Fizzhog.
Fizzhog asked for:
I want it to be over the top --- I'd say maybe
Something about the theatre and stage sets --- Check
Glass - there must be glassware--- More than you can handle
A story - pure melodrama --- Kind of. I'm more of a comedy person but there is some!
I want game assets that can be freely re-used - I may want to make something in response - Included!
Lots of characters--- YES!
Good luck in there! I hope you enjoy it!
***Potential problems- there is a short video file that plays in two of the scenes. If you have it open to full screen you cannot see the text. I can't figure out how to fix it.
Also- I'm bad at spelling (sorry!).
***Fixed Sergio reported bugs. Ignored Clyde reported misspellings
This game is best played in full-screen.
Written for Gothic Novel Jam 2018
Charles Blackwood happens upon a deed for the cliff-side manor known as Gethen Manor, a manor owned by a former mistress of his, Katherine Thorndale.
Attached to the deed is a letter from Miss Thorndale, expressing how she wishes they'd not drifted apart, and inviting him to live in the manor.
Suspicious, he ventures off to find the manor in a neglected state, the once well-tended garden now an overgrown mess of dead, dried up grass, long wilted trees and odious plant remains.
As he explores the manor, he uncovers the manor's secrets. Secrets that, for him, would be better off forgotten.

well basically it's really good
Chistmas Leftovers + Gravity Curtain
Okay I had two ideas for Chistmas sekret santa before settling on Comedy of the Chimera and I thought I might as well share them...!
First idea was a game with games within... two puzzlescript games were made. The game masters wanted to challenge to Chimera.
Challenge 1: Match 3 blocks of each color. Push red blocks and pull blue blocks.
Challenge 2: Reworking of scrapped SokoBoby idea: You and the rocks move at the same time. Get all rocks in the hole and dont get squished by the rocks!
Standard Puzzlescript Controls: arrow keys,x to action, z to undo, r to restart.
Second idea: Gravity Curtain basically had the story of the Comedy but the Chimera has the power to manipulate gravity. Watch out for spikes. It was a pain to individually place every save point and spike.
Controls: WASD, arrow keys to move. R to restart from save point. U and I to activate the gravity curtain!

Finally, after waiting so long... It's arrived! The long awaited sequel to VG- that is, VG2! That is, Vegetable Grower 2!! Thank you very much for donations of $(D_AMT) and other support over the years, as otherwise we (ArfBark Group) wouldn't be able to have done it.
Vegetable Grower 2 picks off right where Vegetable Grower Part 1 left off- So to speak, after following Blu's guidance in the greenhouse, you have been chosen to let loose your awesome knowledge abilities in a real, true environment- The farm plains of your home city, $(P_CITY). Wonderful!!
However, you can't do it alone: As such, you will have the option of one of $(N_SPONSORS) possible player guides to pick from based off of famous, living, real gardeners. Some of them will require proven prowess to impress them enough before you can use them. Figure it out! Learn! Act!! Either way, no matter who you choose, the possibilities are without any limit...
Each actor comes with their own special implement, but there is a large selection of mowing devices available, representing the many moods of a vegetable grower. You will witness before your very hands the life cycle we depend on on a daily basis. Start with some cute Grass, mow it to Dirt, bring Water, create farm Acres, grow your Plants, and most importantly, produce Food!
Can YOU complete every Acre in the field?? Find out with Vegetable Grower 2... Welcome to the world! Of course, for detailed information and answers to any confusion or questions, please consume the README $(S_TYPE) file included with the program. Thank you, and please eat your greens!
Here is a short, simple Knytt level. I tried to stretch myself a little, narratively speaking, by telling a story with as few words as possible, but I don't think I was entirely successful. Oh well!
Trivial trivia: This is not the first level I started that takes its title from a Who song, but it is the first one that I finished! Also, note that the song and level have absolutely nothing besides the title in common. (I think.)
Edit: Fixed a really obvious void. Like, dang girl, what was I thinking, leaving a void like that unaccounted for?
Go after the metal gears, but watch out for liquid!
