What changed
- Maps
- Performance
Good morning/afternoon, etc. It’s been a long time since Tamashii (and Teocida), and I have some news, few, but significant I guess.
I’m working on two games:
(GAME VISUALS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE!)
Evangelho da Carne (Gospel of Flesh)
This game is still in the early stages of development, so there isn’t much to talk about yet.
The concept is almost the same as Tamashii and Teocida, but Instead of clones/totems, you use projectiles like in Klonoa (Call it Hell Klonoa if you want). As for the aesthetics, it’s more aggressive than my previous games and graphic, with all the sprites hand-drawn by me.

Val’ty (Or Val'ty FPS)
The Steam page for wishlists is almost ready!
Val’ty is a short retro FPS about an alien mother and her daughter. It’s inspired by games like Chasm: The Rift, Turok, and MDK. The gameplay is straightforward: you have a single weapon that comes with both a grenade launcher and a sniper mode. Compared to my previous titles, it’s very different, rather than aiming for an oppressive horror vibe, this one leans into a silly space opera one.
Players take control of Val’ty, a 46 year old alien mother fighting against an interplanetary corporation that views her species as a threat to its hegemony. And it’s “bring your child to work” day. But don’t worry, this isn’t an escort mission game. Val’ty’s daughter can be summoned at any time. She’s invincible, and has a essential role in solving certain puzzles.
besides the small hub area, players can talk to NPCs, try out a few minigames, and discover Brazilian easter eggs (it’s part of Val’ty’s mythology, trust me).
I don’t plan to release the game in Early Access, because it’s a short experience, and honestly, I have no idea how manage an Early Access release (and I keep changing things).
You can expect to see more of Val’ty (the character) in the future, including cameos, since she’s basically been my avatar for quite some time now.
I could drop an entire book worth about Val'ty personality and her world but I want to keep this post short.
What I can confirm (done for the game):
Dance minigame.
Multiple difficulty settings that can be changed during game (even during combat), it also affects your level score.
Time attack minigame (racing)
At least one step of the easter egg quest is finished (yep, it’s got some of those).
It has Val'ty. You don't need more than Val'ty.
