It's time for another year in review, and I hope you're all able to find some time to relax and cozy up during the holidays; maybe while you're reading this post. I myself am sitting in a comfy chair in my living room, nurturing my feet after a devastating fall I ha...

Hi everyone!
In the past month, I've continued to work on the PvE overhaul, and more precisely, room selection and the flow of moving between encounters, and how progression is tracked between scenes.
We also got some new graphics for books that will be a new item in the game with the...

Hi everyone!
Today is an uncharacteristically bright and warm day for autumn in Denmark, so I thought it'd be a great time to write the latest dev log while sitting in a sunray outside. Abide the light darkens my computer screen significantly, it's nice with some calm while writing a messag...
2025-10-12 18:06:19 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
Since the last dev log, I've been formulating a holistic design document for the elements that make up the new PvE system, and after numerous low-fi prototypes, I believe I've finally managed to come up with a dice roll system that checks off all the requirements I had for the ...

Hi everyone!
Since the last dev log I have been finalizing the new authoring tool, moved old scenes into Twine, and begun working on the first new scenes for the PvE overhaul!
We have got our first new icons for desire-based actions! Many of the artists helping out w...

Hi everyone, and thank you for all your patience!
The next update is finally very near completion! I am currently wrapping up any loose ends, making final validations of new features to minimize the number of stray errors on release, and looking for a suitable time to roll out the update. 2025-04-16 20:35:56 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi everyone!
Sorry for missing the February dev log. It's not the first time, but it is only the second time I've had to skip a dev log! I hoped to write about some of the things I've been working on lately, but the system kept changing, so it was difficult to write about anything I was con...

Hi everyone!
This month's dev log has been delayed because, between the holiday post and not getting the usual amount of work done in December because of the holidays, I didn't feel like I had enough to report on. To avoid this becoming a rolling issue each month, I will be postponing a pro...

It's the last update of the year, and in the last month I've been mostly working on the upcoming desire system for the game. I think I'm on the 4th iteration of the system or something like that, but I believe the latest iteration is going to be amazing and I'm finally ready to...

Hi everyone!
Last month I decided to take a different approach to the game's development and began making the game more approachable for new players. The PvE overhaul is vast and it's very difficult to gauge when it's "good enough" for the Steam release, and another game developer and frien...
