When we say “The Whole Room Is A Puzzle”… we mean the whole room! Walls, space, movement! It ALL matters in #TheAzureProject! #IndieGameDev #PuzzleDesign #IndieGames #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieGame #Mermaid #Merfolk #Patreon

One diver’s debris… is a merfolk’s treasure! Not that Az really understands what he finds dropping down from the surface half the time. #TheAzureProject #IndieGame #IndieDev #ConceptArt #IndieGameDev #Mermaid #Merfolk

We’re excited to share a sneak peek at our first in game cutscene! #TheAzureProject's story, atmosphere, and designs are all coming together... with a new demo landing on Patreon TOMORROW! #IndieGame #IndieGameDev #GameDev #Mermaid #Merfolk

Not every part of #TheAzureProject is under the waves, fighting off danger, or discovering an ancient treasure… Some moments are simply about kindness and the relationships that give the world meaning. #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameArt #ConceptArt #IndieGameDev #Mermaid #Merfolk

Az's life can get hectic but he always takes time to relax and drifting through the kelp forests for the occasional moments of calm and reflection in the world beneath the waves... #TheAzureProject #IndieGameDev #IndieGames #IndieDev #Mermaid #Merfolk

A brand new year is rising to the surface and with that 2026 marks another chapter in the journey of #TheAzureProject! Thank you for diving in with us because we can't wait to see what hidden treasures this year holds! #IndieGameDev #IndieGames #IndieDev #Mermaid #Merfolk #GameDevelopment

Seems like Az believes that one human’s trash is a mermaid’s treasure! You never know what you'll find at the bottom of the sea in #TheAzureProject! Be it lost tech, forgotten relics, a forbidden truth... or just another bottle! #IndieGame #Mermaid #GameDev #IndieDev #SupportIndie
