The final three months of 2020 are going to see Very Naked Hamlet, The Ghost of Joe Papp 2, and possibly a stealth Halloween game.


Stealth as in we're gonna try to get it out by Halloween, but if we can't, we can't. I was busy taking the last week a half to recode Army of Tentacles: New Game+ Benefits, and got the itch to make a pure dating sim in the Army universe.

I always wanted to do a self-drawn game, as well as an adventure point-and-click. Hand drawn as quick sketches, then scanned into the computer, and then re-done in the computer paint programs, this one was an experience. Not sure it's an experience I'd do again, but I'm glad that it finished.

It also was the first try at a real puzzle game, and as such, I am super interested in hearing what works and what doesn't.

The Shakespeare play that it is very thinly based on is actually five: the five "Problem Plays" of the Bard's portfolio, and it also kind of ties all of the past Stick Figure Paper Shakespeare games together.

The game uses a new, more simplistic version of Army of Tentacles' Argument System, for a combo of puzzles and word battles. We might be using this in the future, but with a version that is a bit more buffed up.

So, enjoy.
