Since I had the opportunity to play Terranigma on the SNES when I was in primary school and it’s the game of my childhood... Let me know if you’d like me to write something about what playing Terranigma was like for me as a child (and then again later, during high school). Reposts appreciated!

1/4 When the pitch for Death to Venice won its BRIEFS grant, it was time for our development studio to have a name. As most lichens are the result of a symbiotic relationship between algae and fungi the term is fitting to represent our artistic relationship. #logo #artisticduo
1/6 Death to Venice is about the encounter and the exchange between two dying characters: a person and a place. The person is in the final stage of a terminal illness and decides to spend their last days in Venice, which is the place. #interactivefiction #textgame #keyart #workinprogress

Sneak peek into the final version of Death to Venice we @lichene.bsky.social are working on: the beginning. Entering the so-called "gronda", point of transition between land and sea in what was the Venetian Lagoon. #interactivefiction #photomanipulation #lebareneviventifannociao #vallidapesca
Hi there! Here's a concept art for our (@lichene.bsky.social) latest game, Death to Venice. There's a noticeable discrepancy between them and the current game because while the game is complete, we want to further enrich it, especially its presentation. DX version eventually... #interactivefiction
