Now my adrenaline is still up, and before my introverted side shows up.
It just feels everything’s so magical ever since I worked full time on this game. (Not like we secured a publisher or anything, still striving hard on this)
There’re so many great moments I wouldn’t have experienced w/o it ✨

People say you have to catch the attention in under 5 seconds. So the opening scene must be straightforward, ideally showing the heroine in danger, waiting to be rescued.
But why must a woman always be the one waiting to be saved?
The only person who can truly rescue you, is yourself. (1/2)

Made two drafts for the hands for the cutscene. How'd you like it?

We updated our demo after GDC! 🎮
✅ Clearer tutorials
💬 A revamped dialogue UI to match the story’s vibe
🧩 Easier puzzles because too many players got stuck 😆. Keeping the story immersive is key!

Such a honor to connect with young game devs and share our growth. Narratives are potent, and I’m just amazed by how video games could bridge the cultural barriers with immersive storytelling.
Honored to share our pitching experience to college students in Marist University. First time seeing our gameplay in such a big projection 📽️

2 months after shifting to full time game dev. Yes things are tough out there, but game devs circle is probably the most generous field I’ve ever been.
Just feeling extremely grateful for all the help and kindness I received so far, and hope one day I can have the resources to help others out.
