ALL THE PROMISED BURN is a hand-drawn Knowledge-based RPG about what an assassin does after the War ends.Can you learn new ways to be, when the past is still burned into you? It's #PitchYaGame and all we're asking for today is your WISHLISTS! store.steampowered.com/app/3727600/...

Can we get All the Promised Burn to 500 Wishlists? You know, for Pride month. Since I'm queer. I'm just sayinggggggggg ;) store.steampowered.com/app/3727600/...

...Okay okay, I'm going to bed

...Man, it WOULD save me a ton of time to have fewer VN expressions... but... oh man... lol have I WASTED time then XD Idk, I'll THINK about it, we'll see...

...I haven't even put in the VN sprites in, and it's SHOCKINGLY expressive... did I just waste my life making them lol?

Also, yesterday, I did

This is the vibe I'm going for with my game. 🎆🗡️📖 #gamedev #indiegame #indie #AllThePromisedBurn

Saegeneime + Magic-minigame

Telethens, the Capital of the Aftokratoria

The Empyre (Part 2)

The Empyre @rainytei.bsky.social

I need someone to teach me how to pre-load and unload images in RPGmaker MZ but yeah. This is the vibe!

"Yes"/"Attack"/"Forward"

Later in the story sprite. It's not perfect, but I'd rather have a bad version of it than not have it It just feels respectful (and my ASL Consultant advised it!)

This is 9-5, which is my fantasy world's radio shorthand for O-K.

In a normal fantasy RPG, the ruins of old Kings would become dungeons to explore. In this political fantasy RPG, trialhalls become part of the educational reform for the ruling class. - #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieGaming #AllThePromisedBurn

Is she excited or terrified? #WishlistWednesday #AllThePromisedBurn #GameDev

Whoa, y'all... it's #ScreenshotSaturday! I totally forgot in my insane writing haze lol so here's something I wrote that's already in the game

*Amai #GameDev Life Saturday 4/25* I added voice acting and flavor text to everyone in Nouveau Thuille

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday! This week, I added... teenage girls bullying you!

*Amai #GameDev Life Thu 4/2* I am doing a little editing and a little voice acting today. Who's this, now? Is it the chaotic, voice-acting baddie, @thedragonsrose.bsky.social ?!??! Incredible

Starnames don't come from Big Stinky Poo - #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

I'm so sorry, IRL Imiris... we're all always late

Shoutout to Kelp. He exists

*Amai #GameDev Life Friday 3/27* I'm both supposed to be on my weekend AND supposed to be releasing a new YouTube video tomorrow. I am doing neither of those things -- I am playing with VOICE ACTING!

I really just spend the last two days doing this. Worth. <3 <3 <3

The atmosphere of our game 🪻⚜️🌊 - #gamedev #indiegame #Grecoroman #seaside #AllThePromisedBurn

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday, fellow game devs! Do you think those crazy Australian censorship people will come for me if the people take their clothes off to bathe in my game? 🤣🤣🤣 Idk, I just really like baths and I am currently living a building with no bath tub. I am living vicariously 🥺

"Oh, Amai, did you figure out your plot holes?" No, but I threw a rock at it

Wanna see some of my Avant Garde horror shit?

"All promised heroes burn. Who are they now?" All the Promised Burn is a hand-drawn Knowledge-based RPG. Navigate an assassin through her delicate, brutal land. Collect artifacts to increase your knowledge to unlock more of the world and your heart. - #TeaseYaGame #GameDev #IndieGaming #Yssaia

*Amai #GameDev Life Mon 3/2* I feel so OUT OF IT today. And I'm definitely doing my editing. "Editing." Sighhhhh.... Is it cringe to tease your announcement trailer?

Me rn, struggling to figure out of the body horror and politics make my hand-drawn ASMR chibis "uncozy"

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday indies! I have new music thanks to my incredible music man ahhhhhhhhhhhh <33333

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday everyone... come feed the "fish" with me!

*Amaiguri #GameDev Life Sat 2/8* Yoooo umm... the top half of my game is DONE and I didn't even notice?! As a little treat, feed the giant salamanders

*Amai #GameDev Life Fri 2/6* I "took the last two days off" (and did YouTube instead lol) BUT I also did the thing: I placed everything :OOO Tomorrow, I will get back into the engine to ensure collectibles are good and then hopefully get started on the rest of the gameplay stuff that I skimmed over

*Amai #GameDev Life 1/27* I added sitting, lying down, and swimming in bath tubs. I also added a SHIT TON of flavor text to be pick-up-able, but you don't care about that. You care about if you can sit.

ALSO, Ymver the Eternal Bard is now playable. The dialogue even changes to reflect that it's him! :D

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday! My game officially has all 400+ of its "books" in the game -- now we just gotta place em all around the world for you to find! Also... what's this? Does my game have NEW CAPSULE ART? - #indiegaming #fantasyrpg #gamedev

Happy #WishlistWednesday (a little belatedly lol) Do you like reading in your video games? Good. Here's how much non-main story reading is in my game - #gamedev #indiegaming #allthepromisedburn

*Amai #GameDev Life Tue 1/20* I have been on my BIG FLAVOR TEXT writing kick. I have 3/4ths of it done. I BELIEVE IN MYSELF!!!!! Here's just a small sampling of some of the things I've made :D

Happy #WishlistWednesday! I'm making pretty good progress this month already! #gamedev #devlog

I got two complaints about the text sound so we're trying again lol

I am on Flavor Text Book 34 of 404, but I finally feel like I have a bead on what'd make em kinda fun as opposed to BORING! Thanks to Rainy Tei Productions for putting me onto the flavor text in Tales of Zestiria! (Need to work on the timing of this one in particular but... you get the vibe)

Things we stole from better games: I had to steal the piano-thing from Clair Obscur. I'm sorry. It's too good. #GameDev #ScreenshotSaturday #Indiegaming

...apparently when I accidentally stay up late, I end up adding pointless but neat stuff to my game XD

*Amai #GameDev Life Thu 1/8* Man, the soup I made for my lunches is SOOOOO good, omg. I cannot even begin to convey how YUMMY it is! AHHH! Yesterday, I finished the majority of the refactor (I hope!) AND ordered a lyre (because I'm just THAT EXTRA) AND I added bathing sprites for my protagonist.

O Random Bones, what is your wisdom? #WishlistWednesay #GameDev #indiegaming #FortuneTelling #Tarot

*Amai #GameDev Life 1/1* Don't mind me -- just reflecting on 2025

*Amai #GameDev Life 12/31* Last day of the year... lock in for the final hours of the year

*Amai #GameDev Life 12/30* I am on break. So anyway, I added fortune telling to my game

MERRY CHRISTMAS, BLUESKY!

You ever wanna gaze into the Abyss? You ever want her to gaze back? 😍 Newest feature of #AllThePromisedBurn is you can talk to Eris in the Abyss about what kind of person you are! - #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegaming

*Amai #GameDev Life Sat 12/20* Hey, I knocked it out of the fucking park today: I finished NOT ONLY the quest in the middle west, but also, IN THE ABYSS! EEEEEEE! If I were on my OLD gameplay plan, I would be 90% of the way done! Unfortunately, I changed game genres, so I'm not. BUT. I'm gonna bask

Show me how you draw/paint snow ❄️

*Amai #GameDev Life 12/18* On Wednesday, I wrote all of the D&D easter egg encounter and got in half-of-it. I'm actually really impressed! I cranked out like 4k words! Don't worry, WotC, it's LEGALLY DISTINCT D&D with a STORYWEAVER and I never once mention "advantage" or a "dungeon master" :DDDD

This last week was actually huge for me: I got ALL the sound into my game :O Please enjoy these footstep sounds in the farthest reaches of the Abyss #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegaming

Yeah, this is so nice thoughhhhh...

*Amai #GameDev Life Wed 12/10* Today is more audio. We got halfway through Telethens before getting distracted by picking out some new musicccc <3

Happy #WishlistWednesday! Look, my game has SOUNDS! WHOA!

*Amai #GameDev Life Sun 12/1* WINTERRRRRRRR 😍 Today, I travel back to THE FIELD. But yesterday, I made AND implemented the rest of the Sky Viewssss 😍 Here's one to sample:

*Amai #GameDev Life Thu 11/27* Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! After baking 1.5 apple pies, I got around to implementing the wedding. What happens when you gather all the worldly artifacts of two trans scholars? They get MARRIED, of course!

Ugh. - #gamedevlife #screenshotsaturday #indiegaming

*Amai #GameDev Life Fri 11/21* Today, I have gotten another puzzle into the Sage Hall. I am currently outlining all the flavor text I gotta write and placing the objects for it. Then, I will go through and write everything for it. Also, I should catch up on my Collectible NPC's data management too

This last week in ALL THE PROMISED BURN, we ended collectibles, combat, flavor text, AND... MAPS! Now you can see where you are! Still tweaking the designs but I'm very excited. - #gamedev #gamemaps #screenshotsaturday #AllThePromisedBurn

*Amai #GameDev Life Thu 11/13* Late last night and this morning, I pivoted to working on the map. Now I've made MORE progress and it's VISUAL! This tickles my brain. The game map now shows you where you are in comparison to the next story quest. It needs testing tho cuz it's very stylized

The combat system is in the game now. Is it perfect? No. But I am pretty happy with it, I think :D (Now we just have to test it with someone!)
