By day you pursue your love interest. By night you are plagued by nightmares. When you can't trust your own mind, who can you trust?
We are team Pastel Knight. We are a joint partnership between programmer/UI designer (Christopher) and artist/designer (BelleinPastel). Our other team members are writer (Rae), composer (JanHehrComposes) and 3d modeler (NathanBathan). We have been planning a game around a protagonist who realizes that the reality they are perceiving is the result of new degenerative brain disease they have, Regressive Neurologic Hypnagogia (RNH). Live out memories and nightmares as though they are the present, and finally reach a moment of clarity.
Currently we are looking for the following roles:
- SFX artist
- 3d artist
- Voice Actors
The gameplay will consist of visual novel segments that play out like a typical dating sim and nightmares that play as a first-person puzzle solving segments. I will handle the programming and whatever roles we do not fill. This is a game with 2d characters in 3d worlds (think Danganronpa). I have experience setting this up and if we don't find a 3d artist, I will build the scenes out.
This will be my 14th game jam and my 3rd time participating in this game jam. I'm a professional developer and UI designer for my work, and on my free time often work on game jams or other small projects. You can see some of my previous game jams, including submissions to Spooktober, on my itch.io page.
BelleInPastel is a professional storyboard artist in the animation industry, with additional experience in illustration and animation. During her spare time, she works diligently on her own visual novel projects.

Do you have a skillset we didn't listen and still want to be a part of this? Contact me anyway! I want this game to be as strong as it can so if you feel you have some skills to really bring this thing together, we would love to hear.
