How do you let go of the life you’ve built due to circumstances beyond your control? No Longer Home released last year and is now on PC, Mac, Switch and Xbox! 🏡 You might have seen us nominated for Games for Impact by The Game Awards

Recently it's been nominated for Best Art Direction by the Webby Awards! If you'd like to vote for a narrative game made by and about two non binary people you can do that here: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2022/games/features/best-art-direction

it’s been a long while since i’ve posted on this blog, but i released a game last year and this year it’s been nominated for another award. it’d be poggers if you voted for it!

2018 and farewell to tumblr

hey! with the recent changes to tumblrs policy on nsfw posts, poor handling of flagging posts and the general steady decline artists/community, it’s hard to see much benefit to using tumblr anymore. this isn’t so much a leaving-tumblr-post, but a i-probably-won’t-be-posting-to-tumblr-much-anymore-post. 

in any case here some of my favourite work from this year!

i’m fairly active on twitter: https://twitter.com/CelDavison

and on instagram from time time: https://www.instagram.com/cel_davison/

at one point i was going to make a game about daydreaming at your desk, but rendering wireframe is too much of a pain and it would have taken too much time away from working on No Longer Home. [reupload, because the original gif refused to play]

Hey everyone!

No Longer Home is a magical realist point and click game series, following the personal experiences of two university graduates Bo and Ao…

Alongside the Kickstarter launch, Friary Road, a short prequel to No Longer Home, is now available for free on itch.io! Bo and Ao are the last ones left after a barbecue and find themselves stargazing.

Hope you enjoy, and back us on Kickstarter!

the kickstarter for the game i’ve been working on for the last few years is now up! please back us if you’re able to.

the prequel we made (Friary Road) is incredibly personal to me and deals with me coming our as non binary. since it’s totally free you should totally play it.

edit: wow i made a bunch of spelling mistakes. i’m very tired.

Cel from Humble Grove has started a nuzlocke (perma-death) run of Pokemon Emerald. you can watch as they make new friends, and as those same friend die right in front of Cel’s eyes.

new episodes out every thursday! episode 2 is available to patrons now: https://www.patreon.com/humblegrove

so hey, Cel here. it’s been awhile since we last posted any updates on tumblr. so long in fact the we missed updating you on my name change. so in case you’re confused, i used to go by Tom. i’m Cel now. you can read more about that here: https://twitter.com/CelDavison/status/940633468320526336 tl;dr i’m non-binary and Cel suits me better. we’re still working away at 29/No Longer Home, but we’ve recently started making videos as now. you can find out why here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/why-were-now-17573872

i’ve been working real hard on recording and editing this. i’m very excited about it and you should definitely watch it!

here’s a shot from an abandon project that was going to be a small text based game that went through thoughts and feelings i have while working at my desk. may make go back to it at some point in the future, but either way i really like how it came out. 

the prints/art on the wall are based on works by @haraiva, @hanadrawsthings, @joe-sparrow, @william-exley, @repoghost, @heikala, Jee-Shaun Wang and Kaya Saaremael.

here’s a gif giving a little look into the process.
