🙏 A Small Note From a Solo Indie Dev

Kuromaku is my first full game, and being part of Steam Next Fest is a huge milestone. If you’re willing to give the game a chance, play the demo, wishlist it, or simply follow the page, it truly helps more than you know.

Your support allows me to grow as a solo developer and build even more ambitious experiences in the future. Thank you to everyone who has played, tested, and shared feedback so far — it means a lot.

More previews, videos, and info coming soon! See you at Steam Next Fest on February 23! 🎉
