The wait is finally over. Good Bones is out now!
This cozy yet haunted point-and-click mystery has been a labor of love for me over the last two years. Using inspiration from my own life and my cultural community, the story explores themes like grief, domestic violence, parent/child relationships, and hope. It's a sad story, but I hope an inspiring one. I wrote it for the folks who don't get to see themselves in games, and for the folks who don't get to see people like me in games. I hope everyone who plays comes away from it understanding each other, and even themselves, a little more.
About the Game:
After the death of your spouse, you pack up your daughter and run from your griefstraight into a dilapidated old house filled with terrible memories.
When you encounter the ghost of a young woman who doesn't remember who she is, why she's there, or how she died, it's up to you and your daughter to explore the house for clues to her identity, her death, and her path to moving on.
But tread carefully. Jumping to conclusions too quickly could put everything you love at risk.

Thank you so much for being with me on this development journey. The most important thing you can do to support me now (besides getting the game!) is to leave a review on Steam. Reviews matter so much to potential players, and it helps my game break through algorithms to be shown to more people.
Enjoy Good Bones, and stay tuned for the next project from RETCON Games!
