As 2025 comes to an end, I want to say thank you to all the wonderful people I met this year.
Even though I'm used to game jams and making small games, only recently did I realize how thrilling it is to see people enjoy my game and write reviews. A truly new experience!

Wrote a shader for the fog of war to replace the lame default material. Yesterday I thought it looked good but now I feel that it stands out too much

Trying to implement "fog of war" on the new level I'm working on. Visuals are 100% not final

Sidenote: I love how my recordings sometimes crumble in dark areas😢Took me a few tries to get something decent

Very interesting concept there. There's a playtest currently running, go check it and help shape it!

Steam Next Fest is over, and I want to say thanks to everyone who played the demo! I was really happy (and a bit embarrassed) to see people trying out my game!

Thanks to your feedback, I got some ideas on how I can make the game more enjoyable!
