Hi everyone, we're (me and minipete) new here, this is a game we have been working on for a long time. Most of that time has been spent not working on the game at all, but we are finally doing some REAL work lately so here we are 

Minipete is doing all the art, here are some pictures:

Totorie Tower will be a short adventure game about a girl named Walnut who has to save everyone after the sun disappears and her grandpa turns into a turtle.
Walnut travels through mountains and caves guided only by the light of her lantern and a few friends she'll meet along the way.

We'll post more soon... Well, see ya around!

Lovely art, I really like that screenshot with the bird in the tree. Very cool way of framing that scene. Premise sounds wonderful too. What sort of mechanics do you have in mind in terms of 'adventure game?'

[minipete]

thank you josiah! i'd say the game is like an rpg but without any battles

there actually will be some scary enemies but no way to fight them since walnut is just a little baby

it'll be mostly exploring the world but also a lot of optional side quests if you ever get tired of the main story!

[Josiah Tobin]

Sounds cool! I'm actually working on a game functions very similarly - RPG look and controls but with adventure game puzzles etc. I like this a lot! I would love to explore a world that looks like that. Can't wait to see more

i like the simplistic style.

@Josiah hey I remember seeing Fallow on here a while ago, looks real nice, I like the palette

@NinthPower thank you

I worked on putting in the first real tiles into the game with an unfinished tileset and did a very bad job, check it out:



It looks good if you squint, anyway all the collisions and walking sound effects for different types of tiles work so I don't care what it looks like for now



And here's a pic of Walnut standing bravely on the edge of a cliff

I like this a lot. Looking forward to more updates.
