Jesse runs our podcast and produces loads of work for noclip_2. If we had the funds to hire him more we would so grab this guy if you need work. Video / audio / Canadian insight. He’s your lad.

Stupendously proud of the CAPY crew in this moment. Find Your Words isn't just an adorable game that exudes charm - it's a labor of love in the truest sense of the words. Noble is not too strong a word - this is meaningful work, with a real purpose. 💙

Michelle Hwu understands the often-invisible work that goes into building a cohesive audioscape. What stood out in working with her wasn’t just her experience in game audio direction, but the care and intent behind every creative choice. www.linkedin.com/in/michelleh...

Andrea Luc facilitates the impossible. She didn’t just balance the tension between ambitious goals and real-world delivery, helping steer us to deliver Ambrosia Sky: Act One at a high level of quality - she did so with infinite grace, empathy, and pragmatic professionalism. www.producewithhe.art

Thomas Fraser’s work is unmissable in Ambrosia Sky; he built the modular kit that underpins our brutalist environments, refined lighting across our levels, built and placed set decoration elements, and configured assets to support our complex simulation systems. thomasfraser.artstation.com

Ysabel Li embodies the best kind of concept artist; an indispensable partner in translating ideas to the screen. www.artstation.com/ysabellee

As 2025 winds to a close, we say goodbye to a few members of our team whose work was instrumental in bringing Ambrosia Sky: Act One to life. Each of these folks is an incredible talent. Though we've made the difficult decision to part ways for now, I'd be lucky to work with any of them again.

Quite enjoyed this visual surprise when booting up the editor after leaving my viewports in an odd state from last working session.

Our latest devlog is now available! ✨ For this month's devlog, we join @joelburgess.bsky.social as he puts on his level design hat once more and breaks down the intentions & work behind one of our levels: The Bhat Communications Tower. Read it here: tiny.cc/ambrosiasky-...

we did it, @zusty.bsky.social. We achieved the ideal elevator pitch

Hotel Infinity launches today on Meta Quest & PS VR2! It's a roomscale VR experience built around natural locomotion. Every step you take in real life moves you through the game Meta Quest: www.meta.com/experiences/... PS VR2: store.playstation.com/en-us/concep... youtu.be/ixaSqmiYqyU?...

how it started: how it's going:

Really proud of this green check. Folks across the team took performance seriously and that diligence means Ambrosia Sky runs great on Steam Deck (while doing pretty intense simulation magic)

Don't miss the Soundtrack for Ambrosia Sky. Grej is a phenom, and his work absolutely elevates the game. The OST is more than game music. Arranged for listening and professionally mastered, it is a wonderful album. Give it a listen and show support for Grej: store.steampowered.com/app/3763620/...

Ambrosia Sky: Act One is out now. Support is everything right now. If you purchase a copy: thank you. If you enjoy it, please leave a review. If you like what we're doing as a studio, tell a friend. Discovery is lifeblood in games today, and grassroots support makes the difference for indies

Our Skyrim segment featuring @joelburgess.bsky.social is about to begin! We've got 65+ mods installed, and for every one he spots, we will donate an extra $10! Watch here: www.twitch.tv/softrainsgames

When the writing literally overshadows the writer. I wasn't able to go, so thanks to Kevin Ly who caught this shot from the audience of @kaittremblay.bsky.social at Hot Docs yesterday.

We've kicked off our 24h pre-launch charity stream, and so far it's mostly hot takes about potatoes and household appliances. There WILL be video games stuff later. I am pretty sure. www.twitch.tv/softrainsgames

We are also *matching* the first $1500 CAD made in donations, so you'll get even more bang for your buck! 💸 All proceeds go to supporting our local children's hospital, @sickkidsto.bsky.social! 💛

This, for me, is the modern equivalent of volunteering for a dunk tank

Come watch @astroscout.ca absolutely stump me with a modded-to-the-gills Skyrim run as part of our charity marathon for @extralife4kids.bsky.social This Sunday, Nov 9! Just in time for the launch of Ambrosia Sky Act One Nov 10 - which is also just in time for Skyrim's 19th anniversary on Nov 11.

Ambrosia Sky - Act One (November 10): Art by Ysabel LI Only a few days left before the release of the sci-fi game by @softrains.bsky.social ⌛

Excited about this one - the folks at @iam8bit.com are awesome collaborators

They say every level designer has a calling card, and I guess this is mine.

🎉 Join us for a launch celebration & Extra Life fundraising stream! 💛 On November 9, we will be running a 24-hour stream to raise money for Sick Kids Toronto and celebrate the launch of Ambrosia Sky! We've got special guests, giveaways, and more... Donate here: www.extra-life.org/participants...

Being deep in thought about level design while listening to 90’s Bad Religion transports me so wholly that it’s actually jarring when those songs DON’T have specific audio compression artifacts (from whatever pirate FTP I downloaded them from at 14.4kbps circa 1998)

Proud to sport my exclusive @capygames.bsky.social merch as I settle into my weekend in LA

Ambrosia Sky will utilize Intel XeSS! 🎉 We've teamed up with Intel to implement their Xe Super Sampling technology, which will be part of the game at launch on November 10th! We hope this helps a wide range of PCs and players enjoy a smoother clean 'em up experience. game.intel.com/at/stories/a...

Introducing @bbwolfevox.com as... Dalia Volkova! You may have already heard her voice in our updated demo, but if you haven't, here's a short sample of some of her lines as our protagonist. We've got a full voice cast in Ambrosia Sky, but the heart and soul of our game is Dalia. 💛

GO GO GO! Congrats to y'all and also congrats to me and everyone else who gets to play it now.

BTW If you enjoyed my thread about working with immersive simulation systems yesterday, you might enjoy this deep dive that was posted recently. Jules goes deep into the tech craft that underpins it.

Hi #Portfolioday ! I'm Vash, a concept artist and comic illustrator, with a healthy obsession for ttrpgs, scifi and weird fantasy! ✨ vashtaylor.squarespace.com

✨Ambrosia Sky: Act One arrives on November 10th, 2025! ✨ Watch the latest gameplay trailer from #IGNFanFest and learn about your upcoming role as a Scarab: a space-faring scientist discovering an alien ecosystem and laying the dead to rest. 👩‍🔬💀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehLr...

With our new demo running during Steam Next Fest, I'm seeing more players discover Ambrosia Sky's immersive sim sensibilities. I thought it might be fun to share a pair of moment from the demo that illustrates this, through the lens of how I do my work as a level designer.

✨ Scarab tested, Deck (unofficially) approved! ✨ If you've got a Steam Deck or any of those other nifty handheld PCs, you can play the NEW & IMPROVED Ambrosia Sky demo on them! Right now! We're working on official compatibility, so please play the demo and share your feedback. 💛

Rad to see folks enjoying the new demo

Really happy with this Ambrosia Sky preview on @thegamerweb.bsky.social www.thegamer.com/ambrosia-sky...

🔴 Going live in ~10 minutes

Come by the Twitch stream next week! We'll be showing the latest updates to Ambrosia Sky and taking questions about the game - or dogs, or whatever you're curious to hear me ramble about in front of my webcam.

Feature request: When the editor has fully updated and loaded my workspace, please play carnival music in my headphones at full blast until I alt-tab out of whatever email/DM/thread/etc grabbed my attention in the meantime.

Where am I? (I'd say wrong answers only, but I'll be genuinely impressed if somebody comes through with a right answer)

Boss: You get that new batch of screenshots for the game? Me: Yep, got 'em right here! Boss: You have done a great job and didn't veer from my instructions in a silly/humorous fashion at all. I'm proud of you. Me: 😌

Hey, here's that new video! I had the privilege of sitting down with @kaittremblay.bsky.social, narrative director for Soft Rains, about Ambrosia Sky! We explore death positivity, consent, and more in a fascinating chat about a fascinating game. Let me know what you think! youtu.be/iJrHtAnyHx4

Proud to share more of the work that folks are putting into Ambrosia Sky with this story trailer.

The Easter (egg) Bunny showed up today

Finally, I have THE chase card for Lorcana

If you think I can talk your ear off about mycelium, just avoid getting me started on ska! (thanks for the writeup on Ambrosia Sky, @dominguezf.bsky.social) store.epicgames.com/en-US/news/a...

I'll be on the floor at PAX alongside the game and some other Soft Rains folks. Come say hi! Play our game!

Well said by @bryantfrancis.me - getting to make an original game as personal, weird and genre-breaking as Ambrosia Sky is something that's hard to imagine accomplishing in any context other than as an independent studio. www.gamedeveloper.com/design/what-...

Video games are uniquely helpful for thinking about death. They'll hold us by the waist as we gaze into the abyss, without letting us fall in I chatted with the legit expert on "games and death" and learned why and how the hobby teaches us to process where we're all heading
