We wanted to share a few pictures from the development of The Stone Ship. This game was created using real-world tools: aquarelle paint for all of the surfaces, vintage typewriters for in-game text, and of course, a violin for the soundtrack. In addition these photos, we're also releasing a small update.

Update 3 notes: Reduced flashing effects during one sequence of the game, for players who may find such visuals uncomfortable.
