The Untitleds | Companion Wulf | RETURNERS 2022 Game Jam
This is a playthrough of my own game, The Untitleds, which was submitted to the Smile Game Builder RETURNERS 2022 Game Jam (hosted by AmalgamAsh). In the video, I added some personal commentary and a brief look at some of the upcoming and planned functions and features for the future.

Future Development
The Untitleds is the first, last and only game I will develop to completion in Smile Game Builder.
To quote AmalgamAsh’s review on Itch.io:
This is the CompanionWulf game I want to see developed and continued. This is the game with the systems that shall bear the most fruit, both for budding developers who need to understand how menu systems might be designed as well as experienced folks who haven’t wrapped their head around how to progress through the limitations.
And with that said, continuation on the game is assured. However, development may be very slow.
The menu system is challenging, notably with SGB’s current limitations and the way it processes events. And, with that said, this will be the focus until it’s fully functional.

Quietus: Psychobiography (A Look At v0.2) – AmalgamAsh’s Viewpoint
I’ve been working on a SMILE GAME BUILDER game, Quietus, on and off for some time. I gave Amalgamash permission to do "progressive updates" videos.
Quietus v0.2 Update Video
This video focuses mainly on the menu for v0.2 (although he erroneously titled it as v0.3).
There Are Bugs!
I’m aware of the bug where the map/character moves in the background with the menu. That has since been fixed.
Update on the SGB Games I’m Working On
Some time ago, I conducted a poll on Facebook, on Twitter and in Discord on which game I should continue developing after the game jams they were created for.
What Were the Choices?
The choice was between:
- Enigma of the Wulf
- Otherworld: Through the Veil
- Both of them
The unanimous consensus across the board was "both". I had considered alternating development on the two games. However, it’s proving to be very time-consuming and difficult to achieve.
What Are the Plans Then?
I’m only going to focus on one, Otherworld: Through the Veil, therefore, because its entire storyline is already written and mapped out.
Both games will eventually also have their own official websites for updates.
