One of the toughest parts of the game is definitely getting the goats to behave… What are y’all doing?!

Did you notice? Heidi’s Legacy is a 3D game, but with 2D textures!

The animations are done with #Blender, an open source 3D software ✨ We use it for all our props as well!

This week we worked on the intro cutscene!

This is Adèle, the main protagonist, at the start of her long journey to the mountains 🗻

#IndieGame #CozyGames #ScreenshotSaturday
This is a screenshot taken in the GitHub desktop app, of a before and after of an image. The image represents Adèle, the main protagonist, a brunette with wavy long hair, a wool jacket and blue loose pants. In this image she's wearing a backpack and holding the strap from one hand while walking. The left image is just a sketch, the right image is all rendered and colored, in a watercolor style.

The key art for Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge. A cute frog is sitting on a lilypad in a body of water smiling, and to their right a young man with blonde hair, green eyes, a blue shirt, and brown pants is smiling shyly holding his left arm with his right hand. Next to him is a young woman with brown hair, blue eyes, a dark green tank with a light green sweater, and light green pants is standing with her hand on her hip looking confident.

Today is February 2nd, which means #WorldWetlandsDay2025 !

We revealed our lil frog game about restoring wetlands this day, 3 years ago, and your unrelenting support has made this journey incredible 🐸💖

And it's just the start! Let's spread the message even further!

#indiegame #wetlands #frogs
A screenshot from the game Kamaeru, it shows an interface with various graphics and explanative text about wetlands: how native wetland plants capture carbon through photosynthesis, and how when they die the carbon stays in the soil underwater ; how coastal wetlands store more than 20 times more carbon than forests, and how 40% of the world's plant and animal species depend on wetlands.

We're nominated for the Beyond Video Games category, for the positive environmental message that Kamaeru carries, underlining the importance of #wetlands restoration 🌾

Academicians, vote for the frogs! 🐸 shorturl.at/7tMG4
A screenshot of the game Kamaeru on the top of the image, with various frogs in furniture, and on the lower part there is a golden pegasus figure with text saying the name of the game, the name of the studio Humble Reeds, and the name of the category the game is nominated in: Au-dela du jeu vidéo, in French, means "Beyond video games"

I tried out @thegamebakers.bsky.social's CAIRN demo (available now on Steam). It is amazing! The feeling of climbing is really there and the visuals are superb. Cannot wait to play the full game.

I just played @inklestudios.bsky.social's fantastic game 80 Days. Clearly you do not need a AAA budget to make a great narrative game. Smart writing, simple but compelling gameplay, multiple branching ensuring replayability. Bravo!
