Work is well underway on a large update for the game, aiming to have it out by the end of the month! The big new addition on the way is an in game map, but a lot of QoL additions are coming too, like an option to change the font used for lore entries if the pixelated one is hard on your eyes

I FOUND THE VINE THAT'S BEEN KILLING PLAYERS!

If you're playing the game, just know that I'm secretly cheering you on every step of the way! Genuinely out here looking like this every time I check in and see that the unlock % on a progress milestone achievement has gone up

Have YOU seen this achievement? You shouldn't have! It seemed like a fun idea at the time to add one that can be a consolation prize for dying to a bug, but now I'm haunted by the fact a bug killed at least 2 players that I have no knowledge of! Please tell me what happened to you! 🙏 #indiegame

The Apothecary of Trubiz and Once Glorious Artahk are two new games with old-world settings and and forgotten languages!

Attention Indie Devs! I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility. The anti-spam key is "kook". lonewulfstudio.com/indieshowcas...

Just wrapped up giving a final coat of polish to all the menus in the game! Here's a quick look at the title screen you'll be greeted with when you boot up the game in just over a week #pixelart #indiegame #indiegaming

Friends of Change #art

i’m doing an art challenge! this piece is for day two #art

New trailer with a release date announcement coming at the end of the week 👀

Rachel Newling Australian Flowers: Blue Waterlily linocut on handmade Japanese paper

Just realized that I don't think I've shared the full key art for the game before! Art was done by Jeff Fay (lateral_moves_only on Instagram), super happy with how it turned out! #art #indiegame

Correction: I just remembered that for like 1/3 of development The Beast was literally just a red square with an angry face drawn on it and now looks like this, so *that's* definitely gotta be the biggest improvement #pixelart #gamedev

Found out I had an old alpha test build installed still and it was fun seeing how far things have come! I think the inventory menu had one of the biggest glow ups Wishlist Once Glorious Artahk now on steam!: store.steampowered.com/app/3390310?... #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #gamemaker

Recently wrapped up a long playtest of the game with friends and it clocked in at *32 hours* of playtime for 100% completion! Kinda shocked how much content I was able to pack in when the player has to actually explore and work out the puzzles instead of knowing everything from the start #gamedev

Iridescent black🖤 #bird #raven #birdart #animalart #digitalart #illustration #birdwatching #crow #original #colorful #avian #feather

These vines are still my favorite asset I've made for the game, super satisfying watching them recede every time #sreenshotsaturday #indiegame #pixelart

Once Glorious Artahk is coming soon on Steam! Solve puzzles and uncover ancient lore in a quest to return light to a starless sky. Sign up for the mailing list over on my website to get access to a special prologue story in the lead up to release! oncegloriousartahk.com #solodev #indiegame #gaming

Fun fact: It was harder and more time consuming to get this title page on lore entries where the body text takes up less space than usual working properly than it was to implement most actual gameplay mechanics #gamedev #gamemaker

Pleased to announce I was finally able to delete "TEMP_MUSIC_CANT_KEEP_MUST_REMOVE_PLEASE_REMEMBER_WILL_BE_SUED_INTO_OBLIVION.mp3" from the project file
