New game: "Discolored - Episode 2" official announcement!
Hi everyone,
Hope you are well! The new game I've been working on, Discolored - Episode 2 is officially announced! It took a bit longer to get everything ready (typical of game development) but finally I can start showing off what to expect in Episode 2!
And now for a few teasers of what to expect from Episode 2!
Check out the game's Steam page (link above) where you can view the trailer and screenshots and if you like what you see it would really help if you could wishlist the game (please). :) Steam keeps track of how quickly and how many wishlists a game gets and if the numbers are high enough it will show the game to more people that browse Steam. In turn hopefully that will lead to the game doing well and I can continue to expand the world of Discolored.
This game will build out the story more and you will run into a couple of characters that can help or harm you in your quest to restore the missing colors. It will play mostly the same as Episode 1 with reality-bending puzzles, an atmospheric soundtrack, and a striking color palette. But there will also be more intense moments where you have to think on your feet because in this episode the evil organization that has stolen all the colors are trying to stop you from bringing them back.

Release date?
Right now I can't give a firm release date on when Episode 2 will be completed. I want to make this game much longer than the first episode. If I had to give a timeframe it might be another year and a half before Episode 2 is complete. But it's game dev, so it could be even be longer. But I'm really excited about the ideas I have for this one so I won't be giving up on it and I'll do everything I can to make it best game it can possibly be!
Thank you, Jason

Discolored is a puzzle-adventure where all the colors have gone missing and it's up to you to bring them back! I started working on Discolored a few months after completing The Search and after 2 years of working on it in my spare time I'm excited to share it with you!
And if you have The Search in your Steam library you should have the option to buy Discolored through the "Complete the Set" bundle at an extra discount! There's also a free digital art book DLC that comes with it sharing a few extra insights about the game.
I hope you enjoy Discolored and I would love to hear what you think of it! :)

Discolored demo coming this month - here's how to get access
Happy new year everyone! Thanks to those who have followed and wishlisted my new upcoming puzzle-adventure game Discolored, your support is really appreciated!
Towards the end of January I will be sending out a demo for Discolored and I'd like to share it with you. I'd love to show you how the game is coming along and also get any feedback you might have about the experience.
The demo will be about 30% of the full game and this demo will only be available to people who sign up through the Discolored website.
Those who sign up will receive a key towards the end of January. And as a 'thank you' for being a tester, users will also have the option to have their name in the game's credits as a tester when filling out the feedback form. I'll also be sending out occasional updates on the development of the game, but I promise not to get spammy. :)
