Kind of! The bloody Nile vibe is definitely a nod to that first plague, but the story itself isn’t a direct Biblical retelling.
Nimaat’s journey is set in Akhenaten’s Egypt, so it’s a different era, but I do want to sprinkle in “plague-like” omens and curses throughout the game.
Short loop from a horror JRPG I’m making on my own.
You arrive at the first temple by boat, sailing on a river that’s literally turned to blood.
Still very much WIP, but I wanted to share the animation + lighting pass.
Hey, if you're going to post these kinds of loops, it would be highly recommended to make them smoother. The "nudge" effect when it loops is a little jarring.
Eliminate the item (?) floating up from the boat and just have it be the idle scene here. Looks good from this singular GIF though.
Good catch, thank you!
I actually exported the wrong version of the loop — that little “nudge” with the item popping up was because I was having issues with the gif mb sizes and made different cuts, and I only noticed after posting.
If I could replace the GIF on Reddit I totally would, but since it doesn’t let you swap the file I decided to leave it up as-is.
I agree a clean idle loop would look much smoother, I’ll keep that in mind for the next ones. 🙏
Why does this need to be a gif? It’s so short and the vibrating is gonna give me a headache
Should be stabilized, at least
Is this meant to take ace during the 1st of the 10 plagues in the Bible? Cool if so!

Really cool that you caught that reference!

Releasing a video game for Prince of Egypt after all this time is an interesting choice...
Jokes aside, a game about the 10 plagues is actually a curious concept to me as a Jewish man.
🤩pretty
Thank you! 😊 It’s a little scene from a horror JRPG I’m making I wanted it to feel calm and a bit unsettling at the same time.
hey
