LISA: The Downcast (LISA Fangame)



A game my best friend and I started mid-late 2021 after I got him to play through the original LISA trilogy, which then lead us to play fangames like Hopeful and Timeless.
He's been doing most of the graphics, balancing and map set-ups based on my much simpler ideas. I've been doing animation, eventing, writing etc. - it was part of the reason FriendShapes took longer, as I'd overworked on it and ended up needing 8 months away from it.

Will we actually finish the game entirely?
I wrote the script for the entire thing pretty much years ago, just we have our own things to do (and RPG Maker is awful to work in)... so we'll just have to see how we feel and how it's received!

Game Description:

A fan game based on LISA: The Painful, by Dingaling Productions, out in the far west of Olathe away from the main action going on in the original games.

General Setting

LISA: The Downcast follows 4 drug runners, Jackie, Elijah, Slam Jackson and Matías.
They work at the bottom of a long chain of suppliers selling Joy, Glee and other designer drugs to west Olathe from an unknown source to anyone looking to buy.

Little do they know about the consequences that they've made for themselves and west Olathe with doing what's needed to make ends meet.

Cruisin

With this current run almost at an end, Slam Jackson, retired stuntman, decides to do a little bit of off-roading and, well, let's just say it's going to be a long walk back.

This time has been different. Elijah, the leader of their little group and something of a mentor to Jackie, ​has had them take the reins to see if they can handle the responsibilities of leadership.

Jackie was the only choice as Slam isn't interested while the last of their number and resident brawler, Matías, flat-out refuses to make large decisions. preferring to lounge in the back making sardonic comments and occasionally throwing furniture at people that look like they need a table hurled at their face.

Unbeknownst to them, their journey back to their base of operations is about to go more off-road than even Slam Jackson has taken them before...
