Hey everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve posted a game or really have been active on the forums. And if you don’t know who I am you can check out some games I’ve made if you click my profile. Anyways, while I’m working on my bigger games I thought I would make a smaller one that I could release faster. Plus I was in the mood to make something a little different than what I normally make too. So I present to you Train at 7! A horror game that’s going to be released soon by me. Making this has been really fun so far and while you wait for the game to release I’ve made a small little demo for you to try.

wow i love the art and the dialogue, great atmosphere!  
i **highly** recommend @WoofWoof’s improvements to the [multilight’s extension](https://forum.makecode.com/t/lanterns-improving-the-multilights-extension/33190) (ty woofie! ❤ ). It allows for much smoother transitions with multiple light bands and customisable colour shading ramps + a lot more useful features.

Also this is super helpful for animating walk cycles! Something that really elevates any walk cycle is a simple 1px up and down (this works for super small sprites too!)  
 ![140-Male_Walk_Dummy_Long](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/6/c/6c7ef4b110fd33ac6e3058b9b6cd2d658e0f3161.gif)

right now the character kinda combines 2 different views, the incorrect front view for the torso and head, and the correct side view for the legs. You’re already most of the way there!

woah thanks a lot! (after every game i’ve made i still suck at walk cycles so this will be really helpful) And thanks for the extension too, i didn’t even know there was an improved version.

I want to say this will release early September at the earliest but no promises! Possibly late September if I’m busy but don’t worry it’ll release soon 😁

While you guys wait I’ll give a little hint. You know you’ve found the easter egg when you see dark red text in one of the character dialogues. That’s the only hint you’ll get 🤫
