Hi, everyone! Hope you have all been well and had quite the happy holidays!

As we head into 2024, I am proud to say that I am putting the finishing touches on my next game, which is one that I've been wanting to have out there for the longest time - and a release date has been locked in place!

Mystery of Melody Memorial is a musical adventure game inspired by the likes of Paper Mario and PaRappa the Rapper. You play as Joseph Teddie, a homeless bear who has traveled across the land for most of his life to find the title locale. Along the way, he'll be singing with a cast of colorful characters while traversing through many dangers that may lurk within his path.

And for the first time ever, Joseph won't be alone.

Angeli Lovely is a bug girl who lives in Mezzo Marsh with her decidedly less-than-pleasant father. After hearing of Joseph's quest, she goes on the adventure to discover Melody Memorial herself in hopes of finding treasures long rumored about. What really awaits the duo at the end of journey? Well, that's for you to see...

Alongside the expansive Story mode, you can also play through the Arcade mode, which consists of the songs that Joseph and Angeli get to partake in during the adventure (plus a couple of bonus minigames). You can set high scores on each song, as well as set a Total High Score that combines every stage's.

Mystery of Melody Memorial will be launching for PC on Steam and Itch.io on February 23rd!

In the meantime, my available games are currently participating in the Steam Winter Sale, including my 2023 releases Game Cycle, Hoppy Square DX, and The Wingless Bee! I particularly recommend grabbing The Wingless Bee, as it's what you would get if I created a new installment in the Frogger franchise. I very much enjoy the work I put into that one, and I hope you do too!

That's all I have to say! Have a great rest of your day, and I wish you an awesome 2024.

That's right! For the first time in nearly 5 years, I am back to releasing new games on Steam.

You can find Game Cycle right over here!
But what exactly is it? Well...

Game Cycle is a faux retro shareware collection with story elements!

As a recently-contracted games analyst, you are tasked by the CEO of Best Value Games to make sure the games set to be included in their upcoming release are up to code. You can get the job done by playing each game for a few minutes, or you could be thorough and try for bonus pay by completing every objective on the checklist.

After your work for the day is done, you can go right to sleep and wait for tomorrow.

You did just move into this neighborhood, though.
Why not go down to the hot tub and chill out for a bit? Maybe get to know some of the people that live close by?

Are you up to the task?

◉ Re-discover the bygone era of shareware CD-ROMs!

◉ Play over TWENTY games! (of varying quality)

◉ Complete objectives for each game...or do the bare minimum!

◉ Chill out in a hot tub and have a moment to relax!
