Synopsis
In Gar 28 you take control of the titular character, Gar 28. The gameplay is simple: explore every nook and cranny of this large, cartoonish and stylistically retro world. On your adventure you will visit many different locations and meet plenty of characters, completing quests and gleaming into the expansive realm that surrounds you.
Development
Gar 28 is the biggest game project I've ever worked on. While most my other games were made in a month or less, Gar 28 has been in development since 2024.
The game is still in its alpha stage. If you want to see the progress I make on it, you can join the nwge game studio Discord server or follow me on Bluesky (though posts about Gar 28 are a bit more rare there). If you want to partake in the alpha tests of the game, please reach out to me on Discord - ping me in the server or DM me.
If the name "Gar 28" did not make it obvious, Garn47 was a big inspiration for the game. The name "Gar 28" originates from my good friend domi9 intentionally misspelling[1] the name of Garn47 and saying Gar28. This then led me to create a Godot project named "gar28" as a joke. Unknowingly, that little joke would wildly spiral out of control, creating a game that means so much to me and has taken so many hours to create. The game expanded way beyond the scope of a simple joke and slowly but surely strayed away from its original inspiration - Garn47. Both aesthetically and gameplay-wise the two games are quite different but also share quite a few similarities. Finding how they are similar and different is left as an exercise for the reader.

On the Qeamlymomi Studios YouTube channel me, domi9 and clueless recorded a video of us playing the Gar 28 multiplayer test. This is the most viewed video on the channel; even the creator of Garn47 herself left a comment: The GAR28 Multiplayer Experience
You can see other Gar 28 videos on my YouTube channel. Most of these videos are quite old, however. The game has evolved a significant amount since these were posted.
