Have a depressing valentines day!

[oodavid]

And to you too!

Most depressing is that I keep seeing games on Tig that use the Unity browser plugin, with no Linux support. Might be time to get a Mac.

Not really TIE related, but I did some pixel art!

Lone gunman.



Under an endless sky.

Awesome work man! Love under an endless sky too 

[Voltz.Supreme]

Really nice looking stuff man! Although Tie is anything but depressing to me... 

[The Pickpocket]

This looks great, I love the design! Nice idea too.

Thank's guys, I got a Deviant Art as well recently where I also posted them, I'll probably be posting my misc. pixel work there.

Should have been more specific... Let's just say it's a joy to "play" and look at. The whole depression theme does come through though for sure. Obviously your aim is to express some aspect of depression not cause feelings of depression in the players haha otherwise you would scrap the nice art

Life stuff has interfered with my work on TIE as of late, but I'm getting in gear again, and we will have tons of the new stuff too share with you guys. I went back to playable build and did some tweaking too the camera, and fixed some bugs.

Can you do a playable version for windows? I'd love to try this game (it looks beautiful) but I don't really want to install Unity Web Player.

Might be a bit of a hard conviction to stick to if you're interested in indie games in development... unity is pretty popular.

I like the look of this game. Almost a bit too much Superbrothers but influences are influences and the modern setting offsets the similarities.

Coming sooner than you probably think.

[MeatAnalogue]

For those who are wondering, I changed my name from 'Vegetarian Meat' (I'll still go by that name but anything I release from hereon will be under this name) basically because some disbanded band from 20 years ago has the name, and their 20 year old album is polluting google searches for my music and work. There's also the fact that 'Analog / Digital' and yet most of my songs are digital. I dunno, there's something about it. To me it means something that is trying with everything it is to be something that it is inherently not. Anyways, keep a watchful ear out for that soundtrack 

[TonyNowak]

Since everyone is waiting so patiently for the finished soundtrack, here is the new bus map.

[MeatAnalogue]

We've got something for you to listen to

[TonyNowak]

There's a shiny new build coming soon with mouse interaction and a new map... and check that soundtrack, we think you'll really like it.

TIE v1.07

So sorry the build wasn't exactly out 'soon'. I had a few issues building to webplayer that rendered the game unplayable. But enough of that, this build is pretty big as mouse support has been implemented (although not completely, also huge shout out to David Debnar for help with this). Clicking on anything from the picture on the wall in the bedroom to the mailbox outside will give feedback. While your outside you can wait for bus to pull up and take you to work (although technically the work part of that isn't done), so prepare for a long ride.

Controls:

A, D - Movement

LMB, E - Interact

Z, X - Cycle Songs

(use E to board the bus and leave levels)

The official soundtrack is present in this build, and you can check it out on Bandcamp if you haven't already. We'd love to hear any comments or feedback you guy's might have for us. Enjoy!

Trees and shit.

Subscribing, those are some lovely pixels. I'm curious to see how you tackle the subject matter. I clicked on the link for the playable build but it 404'd.
