Official tumblr for the developers of SeptiScape and SoulScape, as well as our current project, Meridian! You can find SeptiScape and SoulScape now on Gamejolt!
I know I sent a lot of asks here, but I just want to say, that the games have changed my life for the better, in the server, I’ve made friends, family and even met my partner there. The games are comfort for me, and I can’t wait to see what you guys do next
Thank you for making my life better
Took forever to see this but messages like this are what kept us all going. Thank you, sorry this took so long, and sorry we've all been MIA.
hey, are you guys still making Meridian? haven't heard from y'all in a while...
Wow sorry! I havent had phone/internet access in a while and just managed to get back in!
It's Blake, to explain what happened briefly- After 2020 multiple members of the team lost access to internet, computers, etc including myself. We were trying to continue despite challenges, but the project has been put on hold at the very least because... None of us can work on it. A couple of us have been talking about getting back into it, and there has been talk of at least getting Endscape done between me and one other person. But the missing team members cripple our ability to actually make the game, and the remaining of us have been handling mental health, physical health, and problems with housing and bills.
I personally have been working on a project of my own in the meantime, it's currently under the name Somniate and I talk about it sometimes on my personal blogs and various discords if you find them. I'm drawing, writing, and programming an entire game by myself based on dreams and innerworld locations. Progress is slow but thats kinda on purpose.I believe Alternate Solar System also has a couple projects and various things they are working on, and a few of the other Devs have been doing things too. If any of them want to reblog this to promote themselves, go for it!
Meridian still exists, its actually fully written and on draft two if memory serves and theres been some work done on assets and such, but the vital pieces to actually make it are missing and until we all are able to work on it again, we have to put it on hold for everyone's sake. I hope you all understand, and its been weighing on at least the few people ive talked to about it too.
The end comes, but our journey will live forever in our hearts, in our souls, enjoy Markiplier fandom. I will decent into ego insanity once more for my own amusement and even more for you guys.
A quick word on Meridian and how it will work with the recent ISWM2 release: (Brief spoiler for one of the characters)
Actually perfectly. Mark, I dont know how you did it, but a vital thing that happens near the end is almost EXACTLY how something vital to Meridian and how its main setting was made. And also thank you for making HeeHoo canon because he was already planned for Meridian, and now I don't have to deal with anyone getting upset at us for adding Unus Annus characters!
Anyway I'm thriving, and Meridian is looking great. When we reach the next big milestone we will let you all know!
Knowing what scene this comes from, those would be probably better solutions then what his actual idea was.
hMMMMMMmmm
fav spoiler free character for Meridian?

Oof. That's hard to say... Probably Wil, I had the most fun writing him so far. I'd say Darkiplier but I have biases lmao.
