Adventure Game Studio

Background Story
Murder Cases is a game where the player will find himself at a crime scene inside his home with an unknown invader and his dead wife lying on the bed. Without any memories of what happened, your role is to escape the house while seeking help to catch the invader.

How it Started
I decided to create a game by myself because I love to tell stories and beat new challenges. With no programming skills, I looked for an engine that would be "easier" to make this project possible, and that's when I came to choose the AGS Engine.

How is it Going
I've been working in this project since 22 January this year, the game has around 25% completion, counting the graphics and programming likewise. Everything is done by me, so its progresses sometimes faster, sometimes slower, depending on the task I'm working. I expect to finish the project til the end of the current year (2024).

Thank you all for reading, and I hope the game will be fun and challenging.

Art style is very interesting, looking forward to see this finished!

Thanks, I'll do my best to finish it as soon as possible.

Spooky stuff! I love the art style and the premise of the game sounds really interesting.

Hi!
I just updated the old Main Menu to something new, the UX became much better than before and also the visuals became more cleaner.





Thanks!

I like the style. The music is nice too, fits the style. Murder mysteries are always interesting as well.

Thanks! I`m glad you liked it so far.
I`ll have a demo of the game soon, I`m just revising the written stuff in the game and making some research about the Steam.

This looks very cool. All the best

Nice style. You seem to progress quickly.
I like the music in the gameplay demo. It reminds me a bit of the Final Fantasy 7 forest theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWcZEbuECO4).

Hello everyone!

I have some news since my latest post, I also updated the first message with this news below.

The game has a Steam page (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2388110/Murder_Cases/) now, and its Demo is already finished and uploaded there, but not yet published. I'll publish it maybe in a couple of days after some more testing to make sure everything is alright.

The Demo was localized to 7 languages, thanks to many people who volunteered to help. I don't know if all these languages will be present in the full release, this will depend of the Ko-Fi crowdfunding (https://ko-fi.com/solvendogames/goal?g=0) I've opened. If you feel like to donate, I'll be very happy, but even a Steam Wishlist is enough :D

Thanks for reading!

Hello once again!
I just published the Demo on Steam! Make sure to give it a try!
Thanks!

Hi! It's been a while since I updated the progress here, I was going some burnout due to my regular job and making my own game, so the develpment was very slow, and sometimes stopped. Anyways, in the meantime I was able to make some progress and I would like to share some new areas I've created, there are other that I won't share yet, maybe in the future.
Thanks
