The townspeople in Castle Dornstein come in all kinds and varieties. Some work in the fields, some manage a shop, and some drink at the pub and paint pictures of their dog.

Wireframing is helpful when you haven’t figured out exactly how a room should look or function. Draw something quick, put it in the game, and see if it feels good! If it doesn’t, you can try again before you commit many hours of pixeling and architecting. #pixelart #gamedev

An important part of game development is being open to iterating, like adjusting the layout of a town when testing shows that players get confused with where things are. Sometimes, this means a scene can change over ten times, like our town Krkanov has!

Anna is the beloved maid of Castle Dornstein. She’s also a great source of local knowledge, and it might be wise for the player to get on her good side…

A few years ago we released our first full-length game, Metaphobia. It’s a totally free & fully voice acted retro point-and-click mystery game that won “Best Animation” from the AGS awards in 2019. Check it out here! https://t.co/T7VMzf3UyS

We just added the first dog to our game Castle Dornstein, but it doesn’t seem right to have only one. We should add more, right? #indiedev #pointandclick #pixelart #storyrich #mysterygame

A unique door animation for our game Castle Dornstein is 59 total frames, and the player only sees it once! If you ever hear us call gamedev a “labor of love”, this is why😂#indiedev #pointandclick #pixelart #storyrich #mysterygame
