Tessa's Ark

Major Content Update

I have updated the game and requested it to be made free to play. New artwork added, story has been condensed, and new puzzles added and redistributed for Pacing reasons. Thank you to everyone for their support and help.

Been a long time

Unfortunately due to my own inadequacies in marketing and other areas of the sales of this game I've had to make some difficult decisions about the length and format of the game. It's primarily turned into a free mobile game, but despite that fact I still want to publish a port of that game at least. I can't unfortunately put a whole lot more time into a project that has ultimately been as unsuccessful as this one. That being said I do plan on delivering a finished product, even if it is severely abridged. Here are some of the screenshots of the new art, from the upcoming version.

Bug fixes and Preview Gallery Added

Bug fixes made to the third rotary puzzle, and artwork preview gallery added to the options menu of the game.

Major Story Update Live

A new update has been pushed with a lighter feel to the GUI and a lot of new story content added. The new party members have been added and the story fleshed out greatly. Also the order of rooms has been changed to aid in the pacing of the game. All in all I think the game has just about tripled in length since it was introduced into Early Access. Thanks to all who are giving me feedback and Enjoy the Game!

New Puzzle Added

New Quadrant style Puzzle Added to the Game along with various bug fixes and changes to the GUI and the collision detection for the puzzles in preparation for the next major content update of the story.



New NPC Art

Bug with the second Comptroller puzzle has been fixed. Thank you to all who are bringing these issue to my attention, and I apologize for taking a few days to fix the problem. Let me know of any further issues.

Screenshots for Next two Puzzles

Here are some screenshots of the artwork for the next two puzzles along with a video for the next story section.

New Build Live

A new build is live with various bug fixes and the addition of the latest hybrid puzzle. Unfortunately, in it's last build, the engine I was using changed how it handled the layering of objects, and essentially broke the build of my game. I think I've fixed them all, but let me know in the forum if you encounter any graphical glitches. They don't seem to effect the way the game runs, but they can make the game difficult to play anyway.
