Hey fellow mortals!
It is I, Emptygoddess/Matthew Ritter the um............. human? I'm a human.
I am a huuuuman! Sometimes I even put things on this website. Always have. Probably always will.
Anyways, I've been working on a video game for the last year and a half. We just announced the release date for:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2417850/Yolk_Heroes_A_Long_Tamago/
Yolk Heroes: A long Tamago
You can go check it out over here! It comes out on March 5th, i hope. I mean, who knows. Still got a lot of work to do on it. it's like, um, a game. yaknow?
Tomogatchi + JRPG = Fun?
That's been my pitch for awhile. Honestly, I'm pretty terrified. Been making games for most of my life. Worked professionally as a narrative designer for years. (I wrote Dontnod's worst reviewed game of all time. Look it up!) Really trying to make my own game here something special.
If you want to wishlist it you'd be my best friend. I honestly think the game is going to be pretty good. it's an attempt to make a game that's a 'companion' game. Something that can be fun and uh... i dunno, fun. People tell me it should have micro transactions if I want to make money, but I won't really do that.
It's going to be like 5ish bucks on PC and like 2-3 bucks on mobile (but free with ads, cause uh... people on mobile don't want to buy things, i get it!)
There's a demo where you can play a version of the game from like six months ago. It's had some work and is going to be eeeeven better on release.
Making games can feel like an endless slog...
Um, go wishlist the game if it seems interesting. Tell any of your friends that have nostalgia for Tamagotchi. Oh, the game was mentioned on IGN yesterday.

That's cool. Now they just need to give me a 7/10 review and I'll know I've made it to the big time.
Stay awesome Newgrounds, I love you.
-Always
