We finally released the game! You can get it for free: Devastated: Andrew's Dictaphone by SmokeSomeFrogs
Welcome to the first entry for the Devastated devlog 
First of all, a screenshot. Because you deserve it!
Devastated: Andrew’s Dictaphone is a Point & Click game we started working on in September 2017 and worked on it until the end of December. It started out as a surreal game that was focused on exploration and typical Point & Click mechanics like puzzles. Our former programmer wasn’t part of the team anymore since January so we (Daniel @Moaning_Clock and Angela @ ) decided to make some smaller projects before we finish it to gather some experience in programming first. I, Daniel, am responsible for the writing and the whole gamedesign part and Angela does the programming and the art for the game. Our roles aren’t completely defined and we also do help each other and work together on the other stuff that you need to get the work done.
Now, after the three months break we decided to head in another direction because we simply weren’t happy with the old idea anymore but we liked the title and the artstyle very much. We are going to make a Walking Simulator but as a Point & Click game. Narrative focus seems to be a recurring theme in our games (we made three before and even our clicker game had a narrative focus) and we enjoy working on these kinds of things very much.
It will be available for free and out in about 2-3 weeks (hopefully).
If you want to know more about us and see a bit more of the game, check out this video from our weekly DevDiary series on YouTube.
That’s it for this week, next week more!
Cheers,
Daniel
Long time no see! Sorry – this won’t happen again that soon (hopefully). Due to the fact that we were in Berlin at the A MAZE. and visited Poland after that our schedule was a bit all over the place. But we have made two videos nevertheless – first of all our new DevDiary video and second the A MAZE.-Video, check it out if you want to!
We make a lot of progress on different things – Angela is doing a lot for Devastated: Andrew’s Dictaphone and I’m very happy with the new direction because it looks much better than the old art.
We put a lot of emphasis on animation so that the whole game should give you a vivid impression of the story.
Sure enough, we still need to start recording the voice part but at the moment I’m happy with the progress and I hope that we will release the game this month. But we don’t want to announce anything yet and give it some freedom to evolve.
Angela also started learning to work with ProBuilder in Unity to help me when we will focus on 3D games – I will do everything related to more complex modelling but Angela can do the basic leveldesign and this should definitely speed up the development. I made a basic sink which is more or less finished right now and I’m practising everyday.
It will take a bit longer but I’m really confident with this. It wasn’t really that useful when I was learning programming and would only have been applicable in the future and I had no real visual progress. With 3D modelling I can help with future progress and do visual art – something which I never had really access to. I really can’t draw so 3D modelling is the best way for me to learn.
We also wanted to thank you for over 3000 Flufftopia downloads! This number is incredible and we never had expected this success. By the way – Angela also started a blog and she will report a bit broader about our progress. I often focus on one project and she thought it would be neat to have a wider perspective. You can look it up on her tumblr or on Steemit!
Until next week 
After a long time we worked again on the game and finished it!
