1.18.18

Happy new year, y'all. Haven't made much, if any progress on my game, but I plan to continue it outside of the jam. Twine is a really interesting engine and I'm having a lot of fun using it (harlowe is a really friendly scripting language). Hopefully later today I'll have some more concrete updates.

Happy jamming!

1.6.17

Busy today building a shelf, but I finally got some time to sit down and work on Memento Mori. I've decided it's going to be a twine game, as I've played with the engine before but never really dug into it. 


For right now, you can wait in the pawn shop and time will progress. I'm currently writing off the cuff, so I have to establish some characters down before I get into the meat of the game. 

Not much progress, but some is better than none!

Very cool! Can't wait to see the final project, good luck with Ren'py!

Love me some roguelikes, however your goals do seem to be very large in scope. You may seriously want to consider an engine for your game- there's really moot point in reinventing the wheel, here. If you want to  stick to C++, I think Unreal Engine supports that alongside its GUI based coding. 

Either way, can't wait to see the final outcome!

You'll progress either way, but it'll be a different outcome than that you would get if you opened the memories. (Think like Papers, Please, where the story is concrete, but you know more about it the more you actively investigate.)

That coin sprite is great! Good job!

an object serving as a warning or reminder of death, such as a skull
(latin: remember you must die)

Memento Mori is a Merchant/Trading-Based RPG where you run a Pawn shop that buys, sells, and pawns the memories of its customers. 

Today, I only have basic ideas down; you will have customers come into your pawn shop, and they will either be buying, selling, or pawning a memory of sorts. These memories will be sealed. You can chose either to a) open the memory and see what's inside, but severely devalue it or b) leave it closed, and sell it at a higher margin.

For right now, the aim is to have one story campaign where you can chose to investigate a string of interesting events/memories you're receiving, or leave them closed and duck your head while shady individuals buy up all of your inventory.

I'm debating a few different engines- looking for text driven narrative; haven't decided yet. 

Hopefully something will come out of this jam. Good luck to everyone else!

This is super exciting, I'll totally bring this up to my tabletop buds! Good luck!
