Finished this video game concept a few months ago to apply to Uni, using one of my already existing stories.
I really do hope I get to work on this further in the future, even if “just” in comic form. The content is close to my heart and relates to my own experience with depression, suicide and psychosis / the schizophrenia spectrum. Maybe it could help others find more empathy within themselves for their younger past selves.
I actually got the very first spark for this story back in… 2017? 2018? It’s insane how much has changed, it really does feel like it gained a mind of its own. Jane was originally the protagonist with a whole lot more curses involved. For a hot second it was even set in a magical boarding school! Imagine that!
Game in general is inspired by Silent Hill 2, The Cat Lady and What Remains of Edith Finch. If I gave this another try I’d definitely include more fake screenshots.
Some slides (3) are missing - you can view them on my ArtStation profile :-)
I like to imagine that when Finch asks Caz and Archie out somewhere it’s so special to them. 💖 Also poly tickle fights literally sound like the cutest thing!! I can’t wait to learn more about these characters.
it makes me so happy to see how much you love them, they're literally on my mind all the time (well, mostly archie tbh) but yeah, they're cute.
i think finch is more of the person for explorative dates or night out, so like going to a museum or gallery as long as they don't have to sit still
even if it means enduring archie being immature and pointed out all the phallic objects or funny poses in paintings, it's still worth it and they do think he's funny, even if they'd never admit it
So I found a colour palette from redvioletpanda on Instagram and it reminded me of Eugene Finch from Drawtectives (made by @julialepetit ). I was inspired to add the reaching hands by this really cool Julia drawing.

one of my two fallout ghoul OCs. Finch used to be a big hollywood star pre-war and now he lives in a basement and has a problematic relationship with Stealth Boys :]
