We are inspired by PS1 games, where the backgrounds where pre-rendered snapshots of 3d Environments. We wanted that fixed camera look, but with our own twist. Every shot in our game is hand painted! Here's a look. #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

We've had a lot of different content shown for our Mondays. But today, we get to show a first: music! Here's the battle theme for Mother Dread. The ideal music for monster slaying. #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

Meet Piggy! This sentient fleshy piggybank is your shopkeep for the game. It's always there when you need it, along with helpful items and Sect cultists chanting its name. Cause why wouldn't you sing it's praises? #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

We have no game updates today. But we still have something exciting to share with you. We will be at Barcelona Game Fest by Indie Dev Day, on October 10, 11 and 12. There you will be able to play Mother Dread! #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

Throughout her exam, Beatrix is going to be slaying a lot of different Ignotum aliens. Meet our first enemy: Swirly! Despite the name, it's a vicious monster, with sharp teeth, wriggly tentacles and a long tongue. #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

Meet Beatrix's brother and mentor: Locke Lyndon. A skilled gunman, he is one of the top ranked Killers, supervising Beatrix. His calm demeanor and unwavering courage occasionally slide, to let out the odd grin. #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

Meet our protagonist: Beatrix Lyndon! Though only 16, she's already an immensely skilled swordswoman versed in the magic arts. She's brash and quick to dive to danger, yet she has an unshakable sense of justice. #MotherDreadMonday Join our Discord at discord.gg/DfNzKhm3XE

Today @darkqueenscourt.bsky.social is announcing our first project: Mother Dread! It's a JRPG survival horror game, with turn-based combat, inspired by PS1 horror and Japanese role-playing games. It has stunning watercolor backgrounds, 2D animated cutscenes and devilish monster designs.

We’re finally announcing Dark Queen’s Court, a new indie studio from Portugal. This is very exciting for us, and we wanted to talk about some of the goals we have for the studio. Please give us a follow and share with your friends! (1/4)
