Thanks Azure!  Yeah it was a great time.  You can see how it went if you want over here:

So I decided to do a live-reading of one of the stories from the Neofeud Short Story Collection.

"A sentient machine, one of millions of 'defective prototypes' mass-produced by tech-giants, winds up in a 'machine prison' due to 'substrate profiling' -- robot is the new 'black'. He's beaten, abused, and finally teams up with the robo-convicts to jailbreak from the supermax facility."

Thanks, Azure, but the Stream was actually last week Saturday.  

Yeah, me too!

The Neofeud short story collection is out! Jailbreaking sentient robots & cosplay separates princesses from paupers.  Regulars of the "Fortnightly writing competition" may recognize some of the characters.


The Neofeud short story collection is only $2.99 on Lulu!

Great review of Neofeud!  "Neofeud offers 10 hours of gameplay... great for any SF or point-and-click fan."  It is in French, but thank the techno-gods for Google Translate!

Woohoo!  Gonna get this once I get a chance.

Oh, yeah my voice comes back in a few minutes in

A post-release hangout with myself and a bunch of the voice actors and contributors who helped make Neofeud!  In it we discuss the $2 voice-actor sound-proof booth, pursuing one's passions while having a family, the robot / automation revolution, post-scarcity economics and universal basic income, how we're already living in a dystopic Neofeudal society, Canadian whiskey vs. Hawaiian Guinness, living next to a giant lava-spewing volcano, and more!!!

(Note: my voice is cut out for the first bit, but comes back in later. )

Want to know the $2 sound-proofed booth trick? How to gamdev while taking care of crazy toddlers? How to paint like H.R. Giger? Who is the Six Billion Dollar Baller!?!? Tune in this Saturday at 3 PM Eastern, when the Neofeud cast and yours truly will be doing a post-game hangout livestream!

Livestream link: https://www.youtube.com/user/twiliteminotaur/live

Of course this means AGSers AmayirotAkago, Azure, Fitz, and TheBlindRabbit are invited.

Silver Spook Games is Live! You can check out me bantering with one of the original voice actors and a Neofeud diehard supporter,
where we talk about making cyberpunk great (or at least relevant) again, a possible "Neofeud,
the stage-play" where I do a ventriloquist act, and how to find your soulmate by hooking up with people thousands of miles away from you.

Hi AGSers, I've been putting this out there to the internets and figured I'd give you folks a heads up on it as well, as there are some pretty writerly folks that populate these here woods.

I'm currently looking at potentially working with a writer to turn their story into a game -- most likely a story-heavy adventure game. I've been posting my recently released adventure game, Neofeud, a lot, but here's a link for convenience: https://silverspook.itch.io/neofeud

I was the sole developer (writer, programmer, art, animation, music, etc), and I'm interested in potentially doing something similar, but collaborating with a writer.

If you already have a great story on hand with a cool setting, compelling characters, somewhat original, I'm looking at just kind of converting the existing story into a game format.  My favorite flavors are sci-fi, cyberpunk, post-apoc, and the like, but doesn't have to be that.  Investigative / mystery type stuff tends to work well for adventure games, but doesn't necessarily have to be pigeonholed there either.   Story is King, as they say.

Let me know if anyone is interested, thanks!

So here's a big devlog update on Silver Spook Games development, including news about Neofeud's commercial performance, current goings on, and branching plotlines for the future of Silver Spook Games!  (A veritable 'Garden of Forking Paths' for Neofeud afficionados. )

In addition, you can learn a little about myself and my family's personal homesteading adventure to the Big Island of Hawaii, that happened simultaneously during development and release of Neofeud.

And, if you're interested in seeing more Silver Spook Games, please consider supporting Neofeud 2 on Patreon!

So I've just finished Kathy Rain which was fantastic, and written up a free-form review of sorts.  My Kathy Rain Review AKA 'I love surrogately-hating on the Titanic!'

Great job guys!  Very Thimbleweed Park-esque.  Good luck with Greenlight!

"The Resistance Game"



One more teaser for yas.

Hi, Shreddingskin.  Thanks for the bug reports!  Will add these to the list for the next version.

Hm... Try this?

Neofeud gets some glowing praise from this guy in his indie game highlight!

It seems like there have been problems with Youtube today for some reason...

Touche!  As an aside, just showed her yesterday and Mrs. Silverspook loves Kathy's eyebrow piercing.

I remember that last shot when it was just white stick figures!  Come a long way.

@Blondbraid: Thanks!

@CassieBSG: Indeed, that's pretty much the effect I was going for.
