The Red Shepherd
Edward, the Thirteenborn of House Wandrow, is a shepherd living a quiet life on a ranch where he is feared by the sheep for his aura and loved for the hay he gives them. He does the same thing every day - feed the sheep, talk to his colleagues and visit Gwen.
But today's slightly different - his brother's come to visit. One of them, at least.
And something else.

(Warning - Lots of Reading, and some profanity)
The Red Shepherd is a game made by Dean C. about grief, crashouts and routine.
The entire game was made in less than four weeks, drawn with a tablet bought two weeks in by someone with no art experience - but has enough pride in his work to say that the narrative's pretty good.
It's technically a 1.0.0, 1.10, 1.1.1, probably will be expanded upon if I come back to it, but otherwise it's very much complete. This is meant to be a Proof of Concept and Dean C.'s first actual try to make a full game, so some feedback would be nice!
Might update it with proper graphics at a later date, follow Dean C. on Bluesky at @disbelw.bsky.social.
