The entire CupHogGames team wishes you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! #artwork #art #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermv

I haven't written anything in a long time. This year has been an incredible challenge. Fortunately, things should calm down a bit now. The English version of Alveron is currently being tested, and we expect the game to be released in the first quarter of 2026. #gamedev #rpgmakermv #indiegame #jrpg

Yesterday, the Discord server for @dyingstars.bsky.social was merged with that of CupHogGames. If you want to stay up to date on the project, you can find the invitation link here: discord.cuphoggames.de #gamedev #indiegame #discord #rpgmaker

Been working a lot on my little nsfw game. I feel more confident too just making this silly thing, when at first I felt like I would have to make a secret acc. But maybe those days where you get judged/shamed for that are finally over.

I made some fanart of my fav characters from Alveron by @iglerich.bsky.social ❤️ #art #digitalart #fanart #alveron

Feran. :) #dyingstars #digitalart

August-Update! - Beginn des Betatests + aktueller Stand - Teaser für die Zukunft...? 👀 News-Blog ➡️ innocentiagamedev.wordpress.com/2025/08/30/g... #update #gamedev #indiegamedev #rm2k3 #rpgmaker #rpgmaker2003 #retro #pixel #RPGツクール #RPGMakerMZ

A little grove! #dyingstars #gamedev #indiegame

Nach etwas Verzögerung begann gestern die Betatestphase. Hoffen wir, dass alle Bugs gefunden und behoben werden können! 😀 #DarkSword #Gamedev

Messy sketches of the Dying Stars main chars and guest chars. I hope I can finish it soon. #dyingstars

Why do we create games? It's love! Simple as that. Because it makes us happy to be creative! We love to tell our stories. We love to bring our characters to life. Not more or less.

While "Alveron - Withering Roots" is still on hold, we’re diving into its sequel: We're proud to reveal the true name of Project Void: Alveron II – Vanishing Roots Development has officially begun! Stay tuned for magic, mystery & more. #IndieGameDev #RPGMakerMZ #Alveron #FantasyGame #WIP #Art

This weekend we started working on tilesets! Not all tiles on this screen have been replaced yet. In general, we are following the colorful Alveron style, but we are also using the tiles from RPGMaker XP as a reference. A lot of work has gone into it so far! #gamedev #rpgmakermz #indiegame

Back home.

Mai-Update! - Neues Feature: Lore-Menü mit über 200 Texten! - Integrierung weiterer Miniquests + optionale Gebiete - neue FaceSets - Prognose zum Aufruf von Betatestern News-Blog ➡️ innocentiagamedev.wordpress.com/2025/05/31/g... #update #gamedev #indiegamedev #rpgmaker #DarkSword

The HUD is slowly taking shape. Here, I can at least show you that the buttons you need to use for control are displayed. However, the display of the buttons is still a work in progress. #gamedev #indiedev #rpgmakermz

We have added a HeightMap to the game using RegionIDs. This is then generated automatically. This ensures that projectiles that you fire stay on the level from which you fired them and don't suddenly fly over mountains and set everything on fire or something like that! #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmaker

After the OnMapGameplay we have given the HUD a small update. If you walk behind the HUD, it becomes transparent at this point. A small but nice quality of life change #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermz

Many features have been added to the game this weekend. The basis for on-map gameplay as well as height maps and skill selection on the map. Imagine you're playing with a controller. L1 and R1 allow you to switch through the skills and L2 and R2 the leader of the group. #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmaker

Do you want to slaughter some NPCs? Unfortunately that's not possible. But this test Chan is enough for me to play the punching bag. You'll be able to beat away bushes or use other skills on the map. Despite a turn-based combat system °A°" #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermz

As part of the new HUD, the stamina bar is now also in the game. It is only visible when it is not full. You also regenerate your stamina faster when you stop, even when you are exhausted. www.youtube.com/shorts/DdG9K... #gamedev #rpgmakermz #gameplay #indiedev

Since we are now redoing some things, I am also redoing the “On_Map_HUD”. Some elements will be added. But at the end of the day, it's going in the right direction. #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermz

What will Emiko find in this desert ruin? #screenshotsaturay #screenshot #rpgmaker #gamedev #indiegamedev #DarkSword

Sometimes you have to take a step back to get ahead. We have partially discarded our progress for Project Void and are now using a different collision system. It won't be ours anymore, but what the heck... We'll do our best anyway! #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermz

Happy 25th Anniversary to The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask!! One of my favourite games of all time #zelda #art

It may be Easter, but we are still busy! The battle system is taking shape! Here you can see a small demo video. Don't pay attention to the sprites or the environment, let alone the balancing, yes? This is still a test environment! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz_s... #gamedev #indiegame #jrpg

Happy Easter everyone! :D Enjoy your time! #happyEaster #Easter

For today's #Screenshotsaturday I wish you a wonderful Easter time. Just be careful when you're looking for Easter eggs that you don't get surprised by angry bunnies... 🤣 #screenshot #rpgmaker #gamedev #indiegamedev #DarkSword

We have been working on the battle system over the last few weeks. There is a new CTB bar. Your actions change the next turn cycle. The design is of course not finished and all graphics are wildly scaled. It's more to show that we will have turn-based battles on the map! #gamedev #rpgmakermz #jrpg

A walk through the woods of Hangard for today's #screenshotsaturday! #screenshot #rpgmaker #rpgmaker2003 #gamedev #indiegamedev #DarkSword

#ocsky Even when you are a fairy who specializes in flowers you need to stop and enjoy the ephemeral beauty of spring. it's been a min since i've drawn my girl Ciella but I really do love drawing her and I hope you enjoy!! #art #oc #fairy

We've reached 400 Wishlists on Steam with "Alveron - Withering Roots"! Thanks a lot for this :D We're very proud! #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermv

If you're following game devs and in-development projects, leaving a little message or a word of encouragement once in a while goes a longer way than you'd think. Sharing that warmth and excitement with our audience, even on a smaller scale, is what gets a lot of us going!

We all know what's missing aren't we? BARRELS! :D I do love RPG "exploration", too. I don't think that we have to overthink it too much.

Now that the first exams are over (more to come at the end of the year) I can finally show you our new progress. We have now bound our collisions to tilesets and obstacles can be slid past smoothly. You can see this in action in the video youtube.com/shorts/Gc-hO... #gamedev #rpgmakermz #indiegame

Feature: Artifacts are rare items that give you unique abilities in battle. Examples: Attacks poison enemies, random additional attacks, status improvements and more... #screenshot #screenshotsaturday #rpgmaker #rpgmaker2003 #gamedev #indiegamedev #DarkSword

This was a delight to play, I recommend checking it out! A really fun and original take on vampires in a high fantasy setting. 🖤🩸🌳 #dyingstars #indiegame #rpgmaker #vampires #youtube youtu.be/KzKB5sAgidc

Feature: The famous pirate "Pointed Sabre Liam" has hidden treasure maps all over Lumina. Find all the locations of the legendary treasures! #screenshot #screenshotsaturday #rpgmaker #rpgmaker2003 #gamedev #indiegamedev #DarkSword

I've released a new plugin for #RPGMakerMZ Completionist Encyclopedia 🗡️🧋🛡️💰 This plugin seamlessly generates a grid list featuring all database entries, including items, weapons, and armors within your game! https://starlit.itch.io/encyclopedia #gamedev #indiedev #RPGMaker

Finally, social media that's billionaire-proof. ⚡ Bluesky's first IRL ads spotted in @boston.gov @mbta.com.

This weekend we made progress with the pixelmovement and the pixel collisions. Tying the collisions to the tilesets has so many advantages! Additionally, we now have smooth animated faces (talking and winking animations) with smooth transitions. #gamedev #indiegame #rpgmakermv #jrpg #ProjectVoid
