this is what a single block of dialogue might look like in amarantus btw. the game contains nearly fourteen thousand dialogue blocks

violent crumble@pettyantics

A full year of Amarantus dev was spent on just coding expressions for each line. There's no shortcuts - no "mireille mad", "marius surprised". Every character expression is a list of "THESE eyebrows, THIS mouth, THESE eyes, THIS body pose, eyeballs looking in THIS direction"

@teapoweredteam This sounds amazing but I won't be able to attend this one. Is there somewhere we could register interest in future courses?

@teapoweredteam Oh, I want to sign up for this, but I'm in summer childcare duty. Do you think you'll be running another one or an online one?

Whenever we're not on contracts (or resting!) Destina and I busy ourselves with Elemental Flow. Various things are still in flux, but here's a teaser gif of our menus - because menus are important (for us, and many RPGs)!

In a week, I'll be geeking out about JRPGs at the London-Oxford IF Meetup again! This time, I'm talking about different creators' styles and signatures, the feels they evoke, and JRPGs as art rather than just product in general. meetup.com/oxford-and-lon… -Des

AdventureX (the actual physical event) is going on this weekend, and we have very fond memories of it. It is definitely deserving of your love and attention, if you care about narrative games of all shapes and sizes and can access the London area: adventurexpo.org

It released a while ago, but we're still pretty proud of it as a deceptively deep and innovative piece about conversation mechanics and everyday conversation! (Also, every Steam review really matters to us as tiny indies, so if you have any inkling, leave a review!)

Tea-Powered Games@teapoweredteam·3 Kas

Hi! Little peep out of us to mention that Dialogue is currently on sale on Steam, along with lots of other lovely narrative games associated with AdventureX: store.steampowered.com/app/654390/Dia… store.steampowered.com/publisher/ASHG…

@catacalypto Ah, thank you! It was a fun one to work on - both in terms of the cute icons (possum included, haha!) and getting to read through the scenes ahead of time. Glad other people get to try it now! -Flo
