The sequel/rewrite to Ghost of Joe Papp is out now! This is perhaps our most meta-game yet.... as it's literally about writing a game/play. Co-written by K. Teagan Clark, this sequel/rewrite of The Ghost of Joe Papp, a 2017 release adapted from a college play, was both super fun to do and super frustrating. Hopefully, that frustration is fun to play through.
I started this project to see if I still had a playwright in me, and to try to evolve the main story from where it was in 2017 while still keeping the core intact.
The next game, and the first game of 2021, should be announced in early January, and is co-written by my sister. It is the Midsummer Night's Dream adaptation in our mad quest to adapt every single Shakespeare play to video game format.
Your parents want you to be that heir. Luckily for you, there's totally an ancient tradition for electing a new ruler in times like these: simply lock eight children of royal blood (or the closest thing) in Castle Dragongate, complete with the ghosts of past rulers, and let them manipulate the living heck out of each other and the local population! Two shall rise above the rest: King and Queen (or Queen/Queen, King/King, King/Nobody, Queen/Nobody)! Everyone else that is still alive gets to go home! It's a win-win for everyone (except those that died)!
