I Made a Black British Video Game.

and here's the trailer
//NIXIE - Black August Trailer
It's been a while since I've updated my subscribers on how game development has been going. The official title for this trailer is the Black August Trailer, but the algorithm is a confusing one.

Want to support a Black British Game Dev?
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Even if you can't donate any money, share the game to people you know. I want more people to know that this is happening, and I'm not exactly the marketing guy.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
SUPPORT THE FOODBANK!
► Bi-monthly foodbank initiative! Been writing a book about the British Black Panthers too which I'm planning on talking about more on here. Watch this space. Support if you can!

Shoot me a shout:
I mean, I'm just me man lol.

I'll be dropping a video soon talking more about development and plans for the end of the year. Apologies for the delay on putting out videos, got some stuff in store soon.

never taped so fast i wish you well story teller

[NDUWUISI]

As an African and especially a Nigerian, it's not often we get included in video games so seeing a game based around Black British culture makes me excited since you pretty much have to include African and Caribbean cultures 😌

[thetruthn]

Given your critical observation of black media, im genuinely excited to see what you have here. GBA-DS era vibes with the pixels, brings me back to the world ends with you. The character design is already exciting animation wise. Cant wait.

I've never seen a black British game before and it would be great to have something to relate to and this looks great

[SammyRobinson]

I hope your game take off when it releases.
The gameplay and story seems interesting.
And the art style feels really comfy and welcoming.
Hope you and your team success and wish the best of luck

Honored to have been part of NIXIE's development process through the character design process and looking forward to playing when it's ready!!!

[masterreece]

Ngl this is lowkey fire, seeing video games with black protagonists is rare so seeing stuff like this is awesome

[bigkebizino]

My brother as a black brit this looks awesome, like something special. Cant wait for the release, and good luck with development!

Those designs translate really well to the pixel art, really oozes character with the rest of the presentation, gonna keep an eye out for this!

[Hereforabrick]

That’s sick, I made a couple really bad games in high school, the artwork is great and must’ve taken super long, and that’s neglecting how long the game itself must’ve taken.

Amazing stuff. Indie games are so cool.

[Blue_XIII]

Am loving the TWEWY inspiration in this. I'm definitely gonna check this out when it's finished

[MegafanX]

Can't wait to see who the villain is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[Despoina_Nyx]

Looks amazing!
Leaving a little comment for boosting the video so more people can see the game!

[shockofthenew]

This looks awesome! Gonna be looking for this when it comes out!

[redundantqwail]

please let us wishlist this on steam. that would help you give this as smooth of a launch as possible

[Mx.Monkey]

This looks so sick
Tysm for creating this

[reduxcity]

This is fire, cuzzo. Messing with that jazz-hop/step vibe

[Nkanyiso_K]

This really takes me back, I dont play tio nany pixel art games anymore so this feels fresh & nostalgic at the same time

[SLYKM]

Been keeping an eye out ever since you mentioned this awhile back 👀
