Ashcroft is a narrative-driven, psychological horror game being built through Bitsy with Twine integration. It follows two women of different eras - one in the present day and one in the late 1800s. Playing as Lesly, we follow her story as the new Dorm Manager for an all-girls residence hall in Texas. As strange happenings in the house put her on edge, she begins to unravel the story of Eliza, one of the first owners, whose traumatic past led to the current state of the Ashcroft dormitory.
Twisted Lavender is an indie studio created by Nina Martinez and Lindsay Howard to explore different storytelling formats and genres. If its a little creepy, spooky, and has some female rage, it’s definitely up our alley. Our first and inaugural title, ASHCROFT, is a Twisty retro pixel horror game featuring a fully voiced cast. Twisted Lavender is developing an anthology of small games based within the ASHCROFT universe.
The Twisted Lavender team is currently comprised of three people: Nina Martinez, Lindsay, Howard, and Lily Peterson. Nina met Lindsay in college where they bonded over their love of games. After they began production, Nina and Lindsay brought Lily Peterson on as a Programmer to help bring their spooky ideas to life.
Games Y'all is a meetup presented by The Museum of Human Achievement. We endeavor to celebrate, amplify, and support the unique and underrepresented within indie games and beyond.
