One headshot after another, deadly efficiency is the name of the game. #Witchfire #IndieGame #FPS #Gaming #Headshot

Agility is important, but sometimes a good whack on the head does the trick. #Witchfire #IndieGame #FPS #Gaming #Melee

Not every place in Witchfire belongs to this world. #Witchfire #IndieGame #FPS #Gaming #AlternateReality

Sometimes a death is so disrespectful, fury drives you to reclaim what’s yours - with lethal efficiency. #Witchfire #IndieGame #FPS #Steam #Remains

We'll be watching - we're really curious about Hugo's next steps in the world of Witchfire!

The world of Witchfire is many things, but kindness isn’t one of them - it demands struggle before it rewards you. #Witchfire #Gameplay #Clip #Velmorne #DarkFantasy

Sometimes you don’t need haste - just Echo and its explosive pellets. #Witchfire #IndieGame #FPS #Steam #Shotgun

Hugo Martin takes on Witchfire on the Bethesda channel tonight - this should be interesting.

Keep an elixir at hand - sometimes the damage comes from all sides, even above.

Sometimes you just can’t catch a break.

Overkill happens - act natural.

The world of Witchfire is crawling with enemies - purge them all.

Sometimes you have to go all-in to have a chance of getting out.

Opening some chests has consequences - make sure you’re ready for them.

With Martyr, there are no misses - you’re just pre-seeding ammo.

Preyer’s one-two punch can be just as deadly as his gun.

They can walk through the fire and flames - Echo still turns them into perishable goods.

Firearms, spells and magic - they’re all mighty. But sometimes you just need a good whack to the head.

Our Creative Director and co-founder, @adrianchm.bsky.social, had a chat with @gibiz.bsky.social about small teams, Witchfire, and the weird alchemy that makes great games click. Give it a read - we think you’ll enjoy it.
