changedWintery Greetings all Bizarre Bulletin Subscribers!This image was published on social media as a way to market the game. It shows how the concept sketch is transferred into the final rendering. There is a step in-between also where we get a detailed sketch first in order to make sure everything is in order and then we give the go-ahead for coloring. The process is very straightforward and works very well for this kind of game. A big portion of the funds from the Kickstarter is directed to our main artist for these kinds of images - they are truly the backbone of the game!

We are happy to announce that we estimate to be done with 70 % of the background artwork at the end of the year. This is great because we also need to start focus on getting final renders of the different characters. Too bad there is only so much time each day - if someone wants to send us a shipment of coffee (or maybe a babysitter) it might improve the production rate greatly :)

Shoutouts!

We have been talking a bit with the guys behind Purple Peacock - two twin brothers from Greece. They are cooking up a game of their own and it looks great!

The Purple Peacock

The Mystery of Doomsday Valley recently got some appreciation from the influencer / streamer Kastaclysm who did a playthrough of the demo. It seems she had a great time playing it!

And for our French wishlisters - a short news article

We will be back with more updates in January. Until then - have a nice holiday and make sure you allocate at least a couple of hours to some of the great point-n-click games out there! We both has quite a backlog and I'm sure some of you also are in the same position - so the winter holidays can be a great way to get some gaming time!

Best regards

Pierre and Karl
