local brit goes apeshit
and hits the fattest crit
on the planet
instantly ending all life on it
and making the moon flit
for another world to inhabit
I'm Ema! I primarily do videos/streams and waste my life, but when I'm not doing that (or music) I have a tendency to dip myself into projects that I forget to finish, such as Aretisia.
This whole thing started back in 2010 when I made an RPG Maker VX prototype that was god awful because I was 10 years old and had no idea what I was doing. I later tried again with VX Ace to make anything good, but never finished anything. I did have a lot of cool ideas, and those ideas have been bouncing around in my head for a long time.
In 2016 I created a design document for new project based on my previous ideas, but quickly shelved it as I had other projects to work on (and school).
Skipping ahead a couple years to 2018, I decided on a whim to reopen the document and start again in MV. The document grew and grew, and while it was clearly based on the same starting point it had become something different, and eventually the original name (Inkagafar) no longer felt right.
The end result of all this is Aretisia. The first game, Tenebris Dominus, took over 6 years to be released and over that time the concepts and gameplay gradually became something I didn't necessarily want, so future games are going back to the drawing board. Any future works (of which there are many I have in my head) will require a different engine and entirely new systems to be built to facilitate them, so I wouldn't expect anything new any time soon.
