Chapter Two for Keir and Cirrus, love interests in our episodic dark fantasy romance #ObscuraVN, is now out! Life under the mountain is dangerous, and things are only getting more frightening in The Depths.

We're got our monthly update post live on Itchio (and it'll be readable on Steam in a little bit)! Not too much to share this time around, but Tobi is feeling a lot better now! Thanks for the words of support while she took a much-needed break 💙

September round-up

Hello, hello my beautiful raccoon friends! October is on us already, somehow, and we are enjoying the cooler days and opportunities to get warm and cosy. Sorry the delay on this post, for some reason....

If sweet or scary aren't your things, how about saucy 😘

Oleander thrives at the centre of attention, but he's not here to outshine you: he wants to share the delight of being in the middle of everything, whether for work or pleasure.

You didn't think I only made one of these fun images for Cirrus, did you?

If you prefer your love interests more sweet than scary, our spirited adventurer Francesco may be just your flavour! He wants to experience it all (👀), no matter how risky!

new art?? from me?? that's crazy. a friend of mine commissioned me to finish a sketch of keir from obscura, and how could i deny them 🧎

[ #ObscuraVN | #ObscuraGame | #art | #fanart | #VGencomm ]

a drawing of a man-- keir from the game obscura-- who is mid laugh, partially covering his mouth with the back of his hand. he is standing slightly off kilter to the camera, and wears a mask that covers the top half of his face and only leaves his soft smile exposed. behind him are buildings and lights that are out of focus.

It's been one year since we entered Early Access with Obscura and it's been absolutely incredible! We cannot thank you enough for all your support, but hopefully this video is at least a start. We hope you enjoy relaxing with Oleander 💚

Heard of Bandcamp Fridays? Once a month, Bandcamp doesn't take its cut of music sales. So if you were thinking of getting the Obscura soundtrack, what about picking it up in the next ~23 hours and leaving a little extra money in our composer Cajsa's pocket 👀

Our monthly round-up post is up on itchio! Not as much that we can share this time around, but we're still trucking along. Progress has definitely slowed down a little, due to personal upheavals going on right now, but we're all still okay.

Knight Case Files has just updated their demo to include Japanese voice acting! The voice acting in Knight Case Files adds so much to the atmosphere 🥰 If you haven't given the demo a try, this is an excellent time to get a taste of this story.

Hear that music in the air? It's the Obscura OST, available on Steam as DLC!

Cajsa's music has been invaluable in telling the story of Obscura and her work carries so much of the mood and tone of the game, we hope you love it as much as we do.

And since we're celebrating the merchant in Obscura, what could be more fitting than opening up our little merch shop?

We're starting small, but we're looking to add more items as time goes on. Maybe sourcing some opinions from our Discord, from time to time...👀

Oleander's second chapter is out for your amusement on Itchio and Steam!

You're getting new art, new tunes, and 35k of new story (plus an NPC that's got 10k of worldbuilding and character information to share, if you know what to ask for!).

We, and Oleander, hope you have a great time with him!

Oh yeah, we'll draw our testers on the 16th (our time zone is CEST), so get your applications in before then.

Rotten Raccoons @rottenraccoons.bsky.social · Jun 13

Otherwise, you're welcome to join our Discord server (18+ only, link is in our profile!), and once you're in you'll find the application form in our announcement channel. Thanks for helping us make Obscura the best game it can be! 🦝💙

The testing period is the 18-25th, and the form is available on our Discord, since that's where the test will be taking place. We ask that you not apply if you know you're going to be busy for the whole testing period; we appreciate the enthusiasm, but we need all the feedback we can get.
