Gameplay

addedSteam post image🟡 2025 has been one of the hardest years of my life on a personal level, but I used that time to fight back and explore new game ideas that fit my artistic style. 🟡 From cozy painting sims to weird, brain-rot freak-show concepts, most of them ended up in the drawer, as they didn’t quite feel like my signature.

addedWhat’s new?🟡 I can now confirm that I’m actively working on a new project , and there’s already solid progress. Don’t expect a huge, years-long game—think smaller scope , similar to WHYDF .

Hello everyone!

I know I’ve been absent for a while, though not inactive.

🟡 2025 has been one of the hardest years of my life on a personal level, but I used that time to fight back and explore new game ideas that fit my artistic style. 🟡 From cozy painting sims to weird, brain-rot freak-show concepts, most of them ended up in the drawer, as they didn’t quite feel like my signature.

What’s new?

🟡 I can now confirm that I’m actively working on a new project, and there’s already solid progress. Don’t expect a huge, years-long game—think smaller scope, similar to WHYDF.

This one leans into a depressing, somber tone, which I believe will be its main strength.

So far, I’ve:

Designed and animated the characters
Written the story
Implemented core mechanics

What’s next?

🟡 I’m not ready to share the project’s name yet, but I’ll soon start showing behind-the-scenes sneak peeks. The big reveal isn’t far away.

Thank you all for your patience and support. Making games is hard, and your reviews and kind words mean a lot to me.
