New Game: Sin Spire in development!

Hello everyone! I'd like to share with you all the beginning of my new development journey. Now that Halls of the Pale Widow has reached over 10,000 downloads on Itch.io alone, I figured it'd be a good time to start showing some of my initial work on my next game: Sin Spire.

Sin Spire is an erotic horror dungeon crawler where you navigate through a large towering structure packed to the brim with strange monsters and malevolent spirits. Along the way, you'll make some friends and learn more about the Spire and the strange world it inhabits.

Unlike HotPW (Halls of the Pale Widow), Sin Spire is an action horror game with an emphasis on combat and enemy variety. There will be stalker enemies like the Widow but you will now have to deal with omnipresent mob-like enemies that will constantly threaten you unless purified.

As Sin Spire is a larger game, I've been focusing on the bare essentials for the time being - the game will have more of a focus on storytelling and so a full dialogue system has been created that keeps track of world events.

Speaking of dialogue, meet Savina. Savina is one of a handful of NPCs who you will get to know during your time navigating the Spire. She is a merchant and will sell you many useful items that will assist you.

Most of the main systems are currently set up with only some additonal polish and visuals required. My next big task is focusing on the combat and, of course, the dungeon crawling itself. I haven't made a 100% decision on whether or not I'll use procedural generation again but, as it saves time, I am heavily considering it.

All art seen in the screenshots is work-in-progress so expect changes and improvements. Some of my posts regarding early development will be public, except anything that contains any NSFW content. For that, I will be sharing exclusively with my Supporters.

No timeframes as of yet, but I am hoping to get a playable vertical slice (Proof of concept) demo of the game done within the month.

Thanks for reading and I hope you'll join me on this development journey!
