The Allure of Wanton Cove was my first serious venture into game making. A dark and broody tale of horror and corruption. It solidified my realization that people really did like my writing, and I quickly found my little project blessed with some of the most amazing fans I've ever had the privilege of meeting. There was a sense of pride in knowing I'd created (With the help of coders, testers, and good friends) something special, even as there was a sadness in seeing it come to an end. In it's aftermath, I moved on to other projects, but always in the back of my mind I remembered Wanton Cove, and to this day I still want to return to the setting to tell other tales.
But even as my efforts were focused elsewhere, others saw ways to breathe new life into this old game.
Quite a while back, a game dev reached out to me, someone who has searched the internet for games they thought were special, and have updated them into a format that is more suitable to a wider gaming audience.
Needless to say, after some discussion about expectations between the parties, I was completely on board.
They've spent the last year going over the game with a fine toothed comb, fixing bugs; both known and unknown, streamlining processes, rebuilding the UI, and completely redoing the art for Wanton Cove. Most recently, they managed to get the game through the Steam approval process as they work toward putting the final touches on the project.
With all of that said, I'd like to bring your attention to the Steam page, it would mean a lot if you take a look and wishlist the game if you're interested.
