Introducing an incredible new feature coming tonight in #AUSPEX, a very special addition that everyone has been asking for...

A hole in the ground!

Okay, nobody asked for it, except my 6 yo kid. But that should tell you enough about what to expect, right?

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch is examining a circular hole in the ground with a slightly 8-pointed star shape.

Don't look down. It's not worth it, there's nothing to see anyway.

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch and standing on a narrow stone bridge is looking at a setting grey sun behind a broken arch. Torches and a couple of braziers are emitting a dim light in an otherwise very dark scenery.

Why take stairs when you can take the elevator? Because this is the kind of vicious architecture where stairs are only here to connect different elevators, not to replace them. Hopefully, whoever built this abomination belongs to a long dead civilization.

lectronice.itch.io/auspex

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch is climbing a set of stairs in a dark landscape with vertical structures towering above a curved horizon with a grey sun. Not pictured: a pretty cool elevator system.

#AUSPEX day 66 go brrrrr

Literally. And... Mind the the gap. Really, we mean it. Also, don't get too close. You'd better take a few steps back after pressing that button. And don't do anything silly while sailing at high speed on the sea of black noise, okay?

lectronice.itch.io/auspex

A lone pixelated figure inside some kind of capsule-shaped floating wagon is sailing at high speed on an ocean of noise. Yes, they're holding a torch. Like their life depends on it.

Maybe there's light at the end of tunnel.

But it's a very, very long tunnel.

Play the new level here:
lectronice.itch.io/auspex

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch is looking at the hypothetical end of the tunnel they're standing in, next to a burning brazier. Everything is dark, the floor is covered in wet black noise and the ancient arched walls look like they could collapse any moment.

Here's #AUSPEX day 68.

Roaming inside ruins too big to be seen.

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch is standing between two distant burning braziers inside a gigantic dark building. Yeah, it's pretty big, but it's also so dark that you can hardly tell how big it is.

Not pictured: the longest ladder you've ever climbed. In the dark. While holding a dying torch.

In the ghost noodles cave, nobody hears you slurp.

Play the new level here:
lectronice.itch.io/auspex

A lone pixelated figure holding a noodle... wait, no, a torch, is standing inside a strange building that may entirely be made of giant uncooked noodles arranged in parallelepipedic shapes. Or maybe that's just your usual intricate ancient alien patterns but it looks too much like instant noodles to be taken seriously. It's still rather spooky though.
lectronaughty replied to lectronaughty

Is it #AUSPEX day 73? Probably.

Is it the factory where ghost noodles are made? Possibly.

Multidimensional collapse is imminent, or has already happened... or both.

lectronaughty replied to lectronaughty

My new monthly album made with the #AUSPEX's soundtrack samples is out.

It contains a bit more #handpan and a bit less chaos, but maybe it's just how I perceive it compared to the first one.

It's still noisy, glitchy experimental #ambient made with daily boredom and crudely recorded loops. You can grab it here: lectronice.bandcamp.com/album/ (or a bit later on Itch, I'll link it on the game's page)

lectronaughty replied to lectronaughty

So, it's #AUSPEX day 78.

Is there anybody out there?

Old archways, new glass panes. Or maybe the opposite. Who could tell the difference?

Play the new level here:
lectronice.itch.io/auspex

A lone pixelated figure holding a torch is climbing stairs down on the outside of some old stone building. Glass panes can be seen at the top and in the distance. A grey setting sun can be seen behind the horizon, everything is dark and it's unclear how old and new parts of the structure fit together.

Is it already #AUSPEX day 80?

Everything is dark, damp and broken. But there's still light, right?
