Hello.
 
I’ve been working on this project for a while now.

I'm dying to tell you more about the game, but I can't. She won't let me. She says it's for your own good.



* --------------------------------- *


* --------------------------------- *

Here's the few things She'll let me write:


- You are her murderer and that's fine.

- No fancy gameplay mechanics. The whole game is about something else.

- Everything has a purpose and is connected: graphics, sound, music and gameplay.

- The game is built around ONE thing. You'll quickly understand that your main task is to discover what this is.

- You'll be surprised.

* --------------------------------- *



* --------------------------------- *

There's no reason you should trust me, She's the one you should.

So far, the most valuable information I can provide is the the feedback I’ve received:


- A very special and unique atmosphere. Something sad but cute at the same time.

- All the players who enjoyed the game told me they could feel something weird while playing it.
They wanted to know more, to go further, to understand what was really going on..

- Some players quit early, because it wasn't "their kind of thing".


Telling you more would compromise the whole purpose of the game.

That would be stupid since the game itself allows no compromises.

Nevertheless I can share .gifs and screenshots.





























* --------------------------------- *

One last word though.

Some people told me I was crazy, some other one said it was too risky.

Fortunately it's too late now.

Don't Kill Her is being crafted to serve one purpose.

You'll love it or hate it.

Awesome art style. Shocked Looks amazing. I wonder how you made the animations with this style.

This one looks especially good.

wuuthrer, I am liking it! P.S. Found a typo. It should read, "Here's the few things She let me write:"

Thanks! :]

Nothing really special, I'm just doing it the old way:


To be honest, almost all animations have been created and look that way. I'm just very awful at making/optimizing .gifs

Thanks for pointing it out! Fixed.

As you probably guessed it, I'm not an english native speaker. Fortunately I've got someone covering it for the game :]

I do like the pencilled animations. Looks like you're having fun drawing all sorts of strangeness.

Was waiting for this ever since I played Evidence. Glad to see the project finally becomes more concrete. Looking forward to the devlog! Smiley

This looks absolutely incredible Kiss
One thing though, are you going to write your own font?
The anti-aliased computer text looks a tad odd next to all the penciled art.
