You can read it for free on our website.
After gathering damning information on a dangerous cult, Ran attempts to flee the situation. A chatty cultist has other plans.

Rose and Emma from Patchwork Ego baking cake.
Our pride month post from two years ago is gone because we deleted our twitter account, so here it is again:
"Fun fact: Rose used to date a centuries old woman, trapped in an eldritch ritual. They met online.
Happy pride month, have Rose and Emma baking cake!"

For our latest game jam entry, Jazz Bear, we named our MC Antonciro because he's an Asshole and Sofija is called Sofija because she's the Shopkeeper. Based on that, you'd expect us to call the Bear Bert or Bernardo or something, but two team members are currently listening to #woebegonepod so...

Jazz Bear by NotHack Europa
I can't possibly have fallen in love with a bear after getting cursed in a vintage store
We took part in #DiscMasterJam. It's not our usual type of jam, which made it especially fun to play around with.
For this jam, we built a visual novel completely out of pre-internet assets from the internet archive! It's silly and weird and we had a ton of fun!

a work in progress sprite of WYSAPOOMP's Artur.
Yup. We're preparing our Artur sprite for some actual consequences in POOMP. Perfection | Paper-thin was child's play for him, so we had to throw actual challenges at him at *some* point.
How'd it get this far? I'm sure you'll find out at some point when we finally manage to release POOMP...

Malenia, Blade of Miquella holding her sword over her head in motion, blurry orange/red background.
Malenia, Goddess of Rot form, holding her prosthetic arm and a bloom around her.
Two parts digital art. 1: Ariane Signalis is getting strangled in the pod. She has a neutral expression, it's not clear if she's already dead or not. Red liquid around her. 2: Elster, her right eye is already gone and bleeding everywhere, there are tears in her left eye if you look close enough. Red background.
Black Knife Assassin holding her knife behind her and there are some weak red flames flowing down her knife.

Screenshot from Madame Ro's Curiosity Quiz.
Shows the inside of the tent scene, dark with only the sparkles on the curtains glowing. A woman with long, wavy black hair wearing a purple dress and a veil on her face is in the center of the screen.
The text reads: "Madame Ro: Looking back at who you once were... What a self reflective answer."
