Collector's Mania-- title likely to change-- is a platformer about being plural and traumatized. You play as a young transmasc person as they come to terms with being multiple, and the joys and threats that come with that. There are six main characters excluding the player. I didn't give them names-- instead, I assigned them colors. These colors are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple. Each of them plays a different role in the system. Red is a caretaker, for example, and Orange is a cohost (haha). They are based off of actual alters in my system-- all done with permission, some more enthused than others. There are also two other characters, but talking about them would spoil the ending! You explore a dark Void-- headspace-- and meet each character sequentially. Red gives you access to a hospital where you and the others can heal your wounds, which you return to at the end of each level. There are a few different areas, like the Deep Woods where you meet Green, but they all turn back into the Void. So far the game is coming along well. I'm working out some issues with the dialogue system, then from there it should be smooth sailing. I'm really excited to make this and share it with the world and I just know Cohost will LOVE it. ## Link the thing! https://mastodon.social/@doomvega/111650656229722163 ## Anything else?
