Welcome to the lands of Sketchaven! Well, at least what remains of it. Your home was taken from you, and you must try and reclaim it.

Sketchaven is a rogue lite survival game that I've been working on for the past few months. It is still in its very early stages, but I thought I'd upload my current process here!


How to play:

Sketchaven is similar to typical rogue lite games in which you see how long you can survive in the world, but will probably die. Once you die, you respawn back at your camp and can unlock and buy permanent upgrades and tools to help you survive longer. You also have the ability to build and mine, so make sure to explore the world below!

How it's being made:

I decided to hand draw all the art, because I have no visual arts skills and thought I could utilize that by making it the creative look of the game. 

The audio is all done in the visual audio programming language, Pure Data. I studied sound design and audio programming at Berklee College of Music, so this is my main area of expertise. I made a video for one of my classes detailing how I did some of the sound design, which you can watch here:


I've decided to upload a very early version of the game so people could check out some of the sound design and basic art if they'd want! I would love any feedback or suggestions!
