January and the Raven
January and the Raven is a long-term solo project that I intend to work on far into the future. While the end goal is to tell the story through the medium of games or animatics, if done on my own, I hope to one day showcase it as an animated series. series.
Featuring a diverse and captivating cast in a unique twist on the traditional fantasy IP, January and the Raven is ultimately a story about the human condition, the influences of the past, and how to move forward when it feels like the world is ending.
Process
Initial Idea
January and the Raven, unnamed at the time, was intended to be a short story taking place in a village, something simple to spend time on in high school when bored in class. When looking into the conflict, I decided to add some creatures to battle, and this change would open the door for an entire project shift.
Current State
January and the Raven, at present, is a post-apocalyptic fantasy worldbuild. While the narrative is nearly complete, I still need to begin the process of creating interactive and polished media. There is currently existing art of most of the main cast. The "view writing" button is currently under construction.
Future Plans
While my skill set and time are currently limiting me to focus on the visual side of things, I am actively learning Unity and scripting to assist in further projects. This is a labor of love, so while it will take time, it will be made to the upmost quality.
