End of the year community update

Statement from the DEVs

Hi folks, I hope you are enjoying the holidays! First off thank you for being with us and following The Red Selene In these years, We have faced many exciting moments and challenges, and I wanted to update you on our progress! The Red Selene is a game we started to make with love and passion yet as the industry changed and evolved we realized that we had to prioritize our developments to keep up with the business, in mid-2024 we've decided to kick off a new IP while keeping the The Red Selene development alive. The bottom line is we'll keep iterating around The Red Selene working more on the narrative and giving it changes through the action/horror having more action than horror. We'll be sharing more information about the game, design, and mechanics in the new year how the game will be changing, and what those changes are!

Demo Planning

As for the demo we do have a 15-20-minute gameplay demo ready, starting Feb 2025 we'll be starting to work on the demo to make it live on Steam. The gameplay needs polishing, and some bug fixes, and the game score is in plan for the demo to be play-ready! We are excited to share more with you guys and we will work hard to make "The Red Selene" happen! Thank you all and Merry Christmas! Kayhan Handmade Interactive

Did You Know: 12/21 Is the longest night of the year?

DID YOU KNOW...

12/21 is the LONGEST Night of the year and is celebrated as Yalda in the Persian night. As for us, we enjoy the darkest and the longest darkness in the earth's time together, awaiting our journey to board EC-21 JANUS!

Yalda night, also known as Shab-e Yalda, is an ancient Iranian festival celebrated on the longest night of the year, marking the arrival of winter and the triumph of light over darkness. Families gather together, stay up late, eat special foods like pomegranates and watermelon, recite poetry, and engage in storytelling to celebrate the occasion. It's a time of warmth, connection, and anticipation for the longer days ahead.

The Red Selene | Devlog #2

Are you feeling unwell lately? having excessive caughs? some blood drops from your nose? Can't sleep because of reddish nightmares? the red dust, the true power is kicking in! and You are on your way to becoming immortal...
Hey folks! hope you all doing great and having fun in the coming holiday season! We've been hard at work in the last couple of months and we are excited to share our progress with you guys! in this Devlog we are going to share the challenges of creating a 2D horror game, with our sole goal to scare YOU! while making it fun and entertaining...

Jump Scares

Our first step in making the horror was to get creative, we simply found out that ordinary jump scares are not enough for a 2D game so... We've created a vast unique number of jump scares, all designed and created in unique ways, we've created complex animations for each of the characters and come up with narrative and game flow-driven jump scares, where they can scare you to death even in the 2D Space!

Enemy Design Changes

A major change in our design from the original idea was to categorize our enemies, our original idea was to make a city of different-looking enemies and pack them into different classes. To make the game more fluent and easy to get we've categorized each enemy into a class. this gave us the opportunity to work on different enemies with different capabilities even wider and in a more creative way. the players can now easily define the strengths and weaknesses of each enemy by looking at them visually,

Text logs

Text logs are now available in the game we've implemented them, each text log describes a narrative and an event that happened in the colony... gotta look around and collect them to unlock deeper history, narratives, and events that occurred on EC-21

We've been working very hard and there is a lot to share with you guys... for now, we are gonna warp up this Devlog, for Devlog #3 we will be sharing level design progress, Metroidvania elements, and exploration in the game. SO STAY TUNED!

The Making Of "The Red Selene" Part #1 - Re-designing Aaron

[PROGRESS UPDATE]

Our updated Aaron is here! Check it out share your thoughts and read the full article for the journey!

Hello everyone! First, we would love to thank you all for joining us! This is our very first dev log, we would love to share our process in development and we would share them in a friendly way as dev logs! Today we are going to talk about designing Aaron, Our main character. and what would be our approach to enhancing the character?

THE FIRST IDEA

Can we make a pixel art horror game?

Our first approach was, that it is going to be super challenging to make a horror game in a 2D space with pixel art, so we came up with cartoony and small-sized characters. The idea was to make it cute and gory and the same time while using the capabilities of a small cartoony character in gameplay and design.

Up there, you can find early character sketches that we've made for Aaron. Below you can also find the next step process of our small-sized character. we've also designed different outfits and concepts for the main character.

Once the characters are shaped up, we know this is NOT what we want in the game, To be able to transfer fear every element must be believable, and that's how we've changed our direction to the realistic design approach.

THE REALISTIC APPROACH

Let's make it more believable and realistic

Now we've decided to scale up the character to make it more realistic, We wanted to make Aaron look stronger, more believable, and more realistic in motions and actions,

The first sketches defined Aaron's suit much more, what capabilities it has and what are the character's technical limitations are, and how it can expand the character's motions and actions and show more details.

We wanted to showcase every angel of Aaron from early on as a bounty hunter who has mixed emotions and feelings from his childhood. And our efforts led to what we have right now in the game,

After a couple of sketches, we did the character mainly from pixel to pixel from the base. Below you can find the walk animation of the character.

Yet the question that remains... is Aaron, Aaron enough? we believe NOT!

The Re-Designing

To be perfect and nothing less is acceptable

We believe in perfection and we are obsessed with it, that's why we believe that Aaron is not Aaron yet, it can be way better in showing its emotions, we want to show every small pose and action that the character can have.

And that's how we've started the re-design model, we'll share the new look of Aaron soon and it is going to blow you away! Share your thoughts about our character process? what do you think and what would you like to see in Aaron? Don't forget to follow us and wishlist the game on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2381860/The_Red_Selene/
