Basic Information About the Gloomverse Game

I thought that I would provide some basic information on how the Gloomverse game is going to work, mechnically and storywise. I feel this is important to put out now in a fashion that is not spoiler related so it can be open to interpretations and feedback, as most of it is still being discussed and developed.

•

The Gloomverse game will have a lot of features that UNDERFELL will have. Namely followers, quests and a lot of the aesthetic features, such as portraits, and sunbeams.

•

Gloomverse will not be visually presented in a pixelated style, but a fully digitally drawn style. Meaning that @whimsy-floof is the lead artist for this project. She’s got a HUGE job and is the backbone for it! We’re keeping close to the comic’s style, while still allowing Whimsy to have full artistic freedom. Lots of inspiration from Kingdom Hearts.

• Your character will not have a name nor will you be prompted to enter one. Other characters will refer to you with non-specific pronouns or titles.

•

Your character’s magic will be adaptive magic, meaning you are able to utilize and sort of magic that you’d like as long as you learn how to do it. This allows you to train in a certain area of magic or lean towards a certain profession over the other. This is what will make your character special in the game’s story (and really, just allow you to do what you’d like and have any sort of magic you’d like!)

•

The game is about YOU first and foremost. Lots of focus on making YOU feel accomplished.

•

There will be baddies.

•

You will be able to buy and move into select houses.

•

Lots of focus on daily life rather than action and adventure, but there’s plenty of both. Think of a combination of Starbound and Stardew Valley.

•

The game’s plot start and end takes place directly before the current events of the Gloomverse comic.

•

You WILL be seeing very familiar faces from the comics.

•

We’re still on the fence about voice acting.

•

Development will be a lot quicker than UNDERFELL, with a free demo more than likely being available before the year is up.

•

We plan on actually SELLING this game, but not for a ridiculous price and certainly not over $20. Updates and such will be free, including any sort of DLC if that’s even something we consider.

Did you know we’re also developing a game based on @loverofpiggies Gloomverse comic?

You can follow its development at @gloomversegame if you’re interested in seeing it progress! The Tumblr isn’t fully set up, but we’ll be sharing information as it becomes available.
