It's been a while! I've been hard at work with The First Tree, but I didn't want to leave my first game in the dust. While making merch, I decided I would love to sell a design from my first game, so here it is, for the hardcore fans out there! Thank you everyone for the support, it means a lot to me!

“I remember when I was a little girl, waiting at the end of my driveway. I had already missed the school bus, but I stood there anyway… envying the birds.”
Home is Where One Starts... is a short, first-person exploration game in the same vein as Dear Esther or Gone Home. It’s an experience where every object has been carefully placed to tell a poignant story—a story about childhood, hope, and the miracle of memory. You play as a little girl from a broken home somewhere in the American South. Exploring the lonely countryside reveals clues and vignettes which help the player answer the question of where home is—and how one can get there.
