Development

“A flight to the gallows” was made in 48h using Construct 2, FL Studio, and Audacity. It has been a while since I’ve been so excited with a theme, and I was able to put all kind of things in the game. I can see that his has a lot of gameplay issues, but it was personally challenging as this kind of design was unknown territory to me.

This story is freely inspired by the 3.10 to Yuma films. Special thanks to my lovely Akane who took care of me like always. Now, I need some sleep.
