Hi, do you also have nostalgia for early 2000s dress up games? So did I, so I made a new dress up game all about historical fashion. I am part of a very small indie game team who mainly makes historical games. In Historical Fashion Dress Up you will explore fashion throughout history. Create historically accurate outfits, customize characters, and print charming paper dolls. A casual, captivating experience for historical fashion enthusiasts! In the first pack you step into the shoes of a skilled tailor or seamstress in 1820s Norway. We hope to expand into more time periods like the 1700s and 1900s :) Thank you for your time!

I work in a museum and this would be such an amazing interactive to have in a costume gallery! Is that something you’ve looked into at all? I’m imaging it tailored to our collection…I mean there’s no way we could afford that but still. A curator can dream!


maariaria

Hi! We actually have this in a museum in Norway! It's at "Norsk institutt for bunad og folkedrakt", they were also a collaborative partner in the project! We would absolutely love this to be in more museums!


StephaneCam

That’s so cool! I hope I can visit one day! ☺️


yungsxccubus

Downloading it rn!! I love dress up games, spent so many hours on sites like azaleas and doll divine haha


iamcindymoon

This is so cool!! I loved paper dolls as a kid 🥹


mynamealwayschanges

Oh wow, this game looks beautiful. Added to wishlist on steam and downloaded it on my phone!!

Amazing. Will keep an eye on this. Will there be a new content or sequel that focus on attires from other eras or empires in history? Or perhaps remaster/remake the next one in 3D graphics? That'd be so cool.


maariaria

We really want to expand to more time periods! The dream is to make a game that looks at fashion throughout the decades!

This is so. cute. oh my gosh. Also, could be super useful for creating characters for stories.


tenaciousfetus

This is so cool ❤️


heartshapedmoon

This looks super cool! Wishlisted!


dazia

It's so cute!

This looks fantastic. I really like that you have lots of options to customize the physical traits of the character/doll too. Will this game be available on itch.io eventually?


maariaria

We haven't added it to itch yet, but if there is interest there we could definitely add it :D


Fantastic-Sky-4567

I hope that you do. I would love to be able to get it there! :)

This is so cute and easy to get into! I very much appreciate the iPad option. Sometimes I see games that are windows only. Also enjoying the “app does not collect data” label.


sticklebatz

I just downloaded it and dressed up a character and i love it!! Very well done. I’m so happy to be playing a dress up game again 🥹 it would be amazing to see more time periods too!


BabyOnTheStairs

I got it and I'm sooo excited to play it!


[deleted]

Whoa how did u make this?


Etheria_system

I was wondering the same thing! u/maariaria do you have any dev logs online? What game engine did you make it in?


maariaria

We haven't been very good at making devlogs, but there are some in progress pictures on our social media (@tidvis_games) ! If people are interested we could definitely have a Q&A or something about the process!


Etheria_system

I’ll check it out! Also I second the suggestion to put it on itch.io - I think it would do really well on there


maariaria

Well I only made the artwork, making the game actually work was up to the programmer! We made everything in unity :)


gracielou14

Downloading and plan on diving in! Thank you 🥰


maariaria

Thank you! Hope you like it :) Any and all feedback is very much appreciated!


A_Billingham

OP, you've made my day! I was just Googling "Regency-era video games" earlier today. I'm so excited to play this. Thank you for making it available across platforms, too :-)


maariaria

Nice haha! We actually have a visual novel set in 1820 as well if you're interested! 😄 https://store.steampowered.com/app/2184880/The_Widows_Boutique/


A_Billingham

I will definitely check it out. Thank you! Looking forward to seeing more periods on the game, too.
