A New Game + Status of Nullschwert

Hope you're doing well.

Rotschwert, a horizontal spinoff of Nullschwert, is Coming Soon to Steam:

Red Blade in hand, the Blue Rabbit begins her hazy crusade. It is a horizontal bullet-hell slashing game which is neither a prequel nor sequel to Nullschwert - a sidequel? - that lets you take control over one of the same long-eared beings that you encounter in Null. Or maybe they're different? Not confusing at all...

Either way, it is more of its own, shorter thing. Visiting Rotschwert first may give you an advantage in Nullschwert, or it may raise even more questions. Trust your instincts, and I hope you enjoy your visit.

What about Nullschwert?

Still in development. Unfortunately, progress during the entire trainwreck that was 2024 has been very slow, with one incident in particular sapping a lot of my energy. Slowly recovering, there are still a few roadblocks that prevent me from working any faster (though Rotschwert's co-development has been very helpful at breaking through some of them)

The release date has been changed to show "Coming Soon". Putting up a very tight release date was a rookie mistake in the first place, hugely overestimating my solo capabilities and not taking some important aspects like mental health into account. There will no longer be any kind of approximation until the game is at least 99% ready.

I apologize to everyone who were hyped for 2024 release, and while a new game is not enough to make up for it, hopefully it will make the wait more bearable.

See you all in 2025, then. Cheers,
