Welcome to the launch of the website for The Lost Art of Innkeeping, a simulation-adventure game where you manage an inn while unraveling the mystery of your aunt’s puzzling behavior. A trailer is now available, and you can check out https://seaphoenix.itch.io/LostArt for a synopsis of the game, features, and screenshots.

There were so many other things that I wanted to highlight about the game in the trailer (You can try to catch a ghost! And you can decide whether to be an altruist or a loan shark! And should you return items lost by guests or sell them and rake in the money?) but couldn't since I was trying to keep it short. This was my first time making a trailer, and now I can understand why movie/game trailers can sometimes be so disjointed and just a series of scenes slapped together... there are often so many things to showcase and so little time to do it!

Anyway, I've been working on the game for almost two years... it always takes longer than we think it's going to take, doesn't it? The game has undergone two rounds of playtesting, and I'm just putting the finishing touches on it - I hope to release it within the next couple weeks!

Thank you to all those who've supported me on this journey and hope you're looking forward to the release of the game!
