Mythos Ever After: A Cthulhu Dating Sim RX is out today, on what would be the first day of a physical San Diego Comic-Con. My goal with this game was to make a short, inexpensive, and generally fun title that encompassed all of the "stuff" that normally goes on at an in-person pop arts convention.
Like Super Halloween Times, it does get a bit dark in places because some of the content is based on real stuff. You know, besides all of the monsters.
All data points to a 99-cent game selling, but like most of the stuff we do, it's an experiment. Of course, experimenting is hard to do when you're a small indie dev working on niche titles, but the risk on this particular title was pretty low. So we went for it.
Enjoy.
We've all had that nightmare where we're back in college, on stage, naked, and absolutely failing at performing Shakespeare's Hamlet. Now it is in video game form! You wake up in a strange dorm room, with a strange cot boy or cat girl roommate, depending on what you picked during character creation. Everything looks funky, probably because of all the backgrounds are pre-made art assets. Before you know it, you are thrust into a week of Shakespearian thrills, chills, and literature! Survive the entire week and hope to wake from this dramatic nightmare, where you go to school during the day, but perform a play that you keep forgetting the lines to by night!
In this visual novel/dating sim/anxiety simulator, either know the entire text of Hamlet, or perish. Only don't really perish. There's no fail state for not knowing Hamlet. You just might not get laid.
