Anyone following my work may be aware by now that I have long intended for INNER to be converted to an anthology. After the first little game jam game, I really liked the concept of many little games related to the same theme in one package.
I feel INNER's area of subconscious and psychological experiences is a fun one for many mini-game projects and a great way to introduce people to my work.
That's why, in the not too distant future, INNER will be 100% free and I mean actually free. Here's what the future of INNER looks like:
Future of INNER
INNER will become an anthology that I update with mini-games periodically for free. No DLC, just free content. Every game will be of similar quality, length, and cover the same theme of the psychological and subconscious.
I have many other projects such as Mortuary Assistant and my various Patreon games being worked on but around those, I will create more content for INNER. When I do, I will upload a new build, post the update, and you will have a new mini-game to play!
The Current Update
The update hitting Steam soon is still just the base mini-game (Now known as Michael) but the game's rendering has been given a large upgrade to support any new project, UI systems, and some other work necessary to support multiple games have been completed. I have also fixed a number of bugs in the Michael mini-game.
This update is basically the conversion to support new content in this format. Please note that Linux is not included currently in this change as my equipment to test Linux builds has broken and I am not certain when I can get it operational again.
I am actively working on a new mini-game that I hope to add to the game in the next few weeks. So keep an eye out for updates! INNER should be completely free in about a week.
