Hello everyone! Allow me to introduce myself: I’m William. Usually, I’m mostly here to help indie devs and game creators release great, polished games with solid marketing, etc. But I’ve always been a failed creator who couldn’t finish his own personal projects. Plus, my ADHD means I can never stick to just one goal. I always have twelve thousand going on at the same time. The result: I never finish anything I start. And making a video game takes time.

However, a year ago, after a major burnout during my time as a Game Scout for an indie publisher, I reset my life. I created Sourcing in the Rain[sourcingintherain.com] to help indies, but I also wanted to help myself heal and learn even more. What better way to understand creators than to become one myself? And obviously, no Generative AI for anything artistic! But when you’re not an artist, it’s tricky.

For this game, I had a lot of fun exploring the Golden Age of Comics from the 1950s because… a lot of them are in the public domain! So I started cropping covers and setting them up in a comic book shop management game. That was a year ago, and since then, Librarian: Tidy Up the Arcane Library! came out. That game did wonders for my brain and my soul. Relaxing and wholesome, I found true comfort in it, different from the (awesome) PowerWash Simulator. So I transformed (and simplified?) my idea into a comic book sorting game. That’s how this game was born!

I’ll tell you the whole story very soon.

Wishlist the game and follow the page if you want to see what happens next!

Spoiler: I’m going to show you all the crazy and painful steps of learning Unreal Engine through YouTube tutorials and advice from friends, but with zero artistic talent :P We're going to have fun.
