Automaton Heart is bundling with this super cool game called Abyss Veil u should check it out

two pieces of gaming oddities became friends and merged together to make one. ty @lukewasthefish.bsky.social

this made me very happy, such a cool concept for a video, and im super honored to have my lil game be a part of it. thank you for taking the time to write this while also being in the process of moving lol, true passion for video games and journalism colliding, go check the vid out, it's great stuff

Abyss Veil 1.7 update tonight - new gun (LEOPARD) - lil tweaks in some levels - some bugs ironed out, some are just features trust - extra worldbuilding posters added in the early game

very overpowered but also satisfying to shoottt. still thinking of replacing the knife with a handgun.. but we'll cee

BEHOLD, THE LEOPARD, ABYSS VEIL'S PART 1 SNIPER RIFLE BY cher. It's a dumb ass looking gun, I love it. Ty @neon-brain.itch.io for recommending me a shotgun, sorry for turning it into a sniper. I'll prob add another weapon for the early game, that should wrap up v1.6, after that it's part 2 grind

THEY CAN'T HEAR YOU OUT NOW PART OF SHOVEL DIRECT 2026 itch link below

game still on sale 25% off, let me know what kinda weapon u feel like the game would need. i thought maybe a barret 50. cal could be funny to use in the jungle levels.. but i feel like the early game could have another gun too. LET ME KNOW

re-reading higurashi with og sprites, no va and og bgs was a vibe.. i don't think the experience changed all that much since it's very much a NOVEL, but the backgrounds man.. the weirdly edited photos are just timeless, its got this found footage vibe which i think works way more w the atmosphere

uh oh my chungus game is on sale i didnt even know that's crazy go get it

i wanna share cool shit i play here cuz im tired of sharing things on twitter and getting angry dms or just nuhuhhh people in my replies for it. all that to say, brutalist quake fucks so hard man, think it might be one of my fav boomer shooters already, such a cool project

Currently writing a piece about Abyss Veil, and how it reminds me of the original One Punch Man webcomic. A completely raw work from someone with no formal art training, but an absolutely crystal-clear vision of what the thing SHOULD look like. I have endless respect for that kind of energy.

swaggy

new p controller almost done, i'll start working on some actual set-pieces now that the story's mostly written (always leaving some stuff to improvise upon as i go, i cant just write everything down outside of worldbuilding stuff lol, gotta let these folks live and choose the direction themselves)

wanted to make a full final level in that bottom pit city but i didn't have much more free time left, so i instead made that final trippy resi-like section. i do wanna bring that concept of a city back in part 2 though, i think itd be fun to explore. game was supposed to end here originally

And lastly - game 50 - the pure, raw outsider art energy of Abyss Veil. Looks like a weird MSpaint webcomic. Sometimes reads like it too. But this is a wildly ambitious FPS/survival horror/psychothriller/sci-fi/visual novel mix. It's ~8-10 hours just as Chapter 1. Chapters 2-4 are in development.

max veil evil 4

this is getting somewhere lol

Max payne veil (I'll see where I go with this, but chap 2/part 2 might play more like a janky resi 4/max payne, that's the big idea i wanted to try, if it gets too complicated i'll revert it back to an fps... we'll see 😇)

Bone Fire Effigy's out now with a 35% introductory offer! store.steampowered.com/app/4089180/...

it's always when i have loads of free time that i end up not doing shit with my day except walking the dog, watching animes and playing games. insane how the less time i'll have to do something, the more i wanna have it. but when i do get that extra time i just waste it like crazy lol

ABYSS VEIL PICO 8

A little sales shout-out to Abyss Veil. Raw, low-fi, madly ambitious psychological sci-fi/visual novel hybrid. MSpaint art, chunky polygons, wonky combat. Also 10+ hours even at just episode 1 of 4. But it feels like it's really trying something. And kinda does it? Genuinely feels like outsider art

In a time where we got devs swear they need genAI to make games competitive with big budget titles, this game feels like an antithesis to that thought. It does so much with nothing but love. That sort of raw you only get from a singular vision. I'm legit excited for the next episode.

new update adding voice lines for most factions, some adjusments here and there and some new little things throughout the game store.steampowered.com/news/app/366...

Abyss Veil is still 25% off for like 24 hours I hate posting about it all the time without something to give in return, so here's a funny refund notes compilation

This month has been horrible, my laptop died, I had to spend tons of money on new equipment, no new commissions and rent is late again. If you'd like and are able to help, I'm saving for a new laptop and to pay bills since money is almost over. ko-fi.com/2dchaos

New optional log soon for Abyss Veil. Just adding some fluff here and there so some parts of chapter 1 make more sense.

Can I share the most interesting game I've played in a minute? It's called Abyss Veil. It's in early access on Steam and is like, what if there were a tactical, anime-inspired FPS that feels like someone tried to make F.E.A.R. in a Cruelty Squad level editor.

New post! I bullied 12 dear friends into taking over my site to share their favorite new to them Japanese media of 2025 and got 12 thoughtful, funny, beautiful essays covering a huge variety of art. Get cozy, because this is a big one!

some 90s Soundfont / Unreal inspired music for chapter ii

i updated abyss veil late december with new enemy animations and attacks, some re-balance in the later levels. the game's way better than it was on release so.. try it out! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Just played the prologue and first chunk of Abyss Veil, one of the more impulsive bits I picked up in the sale. It's a raw-as-fuck Itch.io-core THING. It appears to be some kind of hybrid sci-fi visual novel/FPS that's also a surreal dream-dive. No part is 'good' in any traditional sense, and yet..

#gamedev #indiedev #godot #indiegames

New UI, some extras. Update the game on steam if you're still playing/about to play!! Thanks for the love, didn't expect getting any recognition since I didn't promote it much, if at all #gamedev #indiedev

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...
