By the way, I've released [TRACE] and [The Last Date] from restricted prison. [The Last Date]: altila.itch.io/the-last-date [TRACE]: altila.itch.io/trace The rest are still jailed for an unknown time.

For some years, I've been trying to beat my personal record that my weird game has for an unknown reason (maybe just weird luck), but at this point, I should just accept that it's impossible. I can never beat that number. If I ever make another game, I will just aim for 50 plays or something

I'm going back to my cave for IRL stuff. I won't be making anything, but will still play something.

Introducing some very short (around 5-15 minutes) #visualnovel of mine. A thread:

Altila is back with the gaming journal. The first week of April is full of itch's games from game jams (mostly #nanoreno)! www.patreon.com/posts/april-...

Common Komdigi L. I'm still holding a grudge for when they almost banned Steam, now IGRS happened.

This is a huge problem for Indonesians "In the near future, STEAM WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO DISPLAY GAMES TO CUSTOMERS IN INDONESIA IF THE GAME IS MISSING VALID AGE RATING" What this means is that any games with RC rating will be blocked in ID Source: partner.steamgames.com/doc/gettings...

I'm sorry to tell you this, Nero. Even if Xavier doesn't exist, you will still fail to enter that university. You and that place are not meant to be. Art is not something you are meant to pursue in uni. Art is not your main quest, it's only your side quest. I'm sorry, Nero. I'm really sorry

I've uploaded new colors for my Simple Spring GUI Pack! Enjoy :D Get it here 👉 otojang.itch.io/simple-sprin... #vndev

Love it when my analytics look like this. I don't know if they are real people or not, but I still like how these charts look

Introducing some very short (around 5-15 minutes) #visualnovel of mine. A thread:

I forgot, but I have a VN fully written in Indonesian. Lupa kalau punya VN yang ditulis pakai bahasa Indonesia. Link: altila.itch.io/mencari-putr... Itu abangnya namanya Bambang, btw. Postmortem (English): altila.itch.io/looking-for-... #visualnovel #kineticnovel #vndev

It's April, and I haven't cleared a single route on Battlefield Waltz. I think I'm not too fond of the setting in this game and Princess Arthur: a girl happened to get an op sword, and the country decided she had to fight in a war. I have a lot of complaints about this game, actually.

Coming soon April 2026 "Graduating from the police academy, he was tasked to drive an emergency vehicle to the base. After all, what is life without any excitement?" #NanoRenO2026 #indiegame

My boi finally got a new frame after 6 years... I can finally uninstall this game in peace (after I got him)

Um, yeah. So, this is my entry for #NaNoRenO2026 #NaNoRenO [Burning, Crackling] 1100 words #kineticnovel about Nero, who is feeling depressed and is burning his artworks as we speak. Link: altila.itch.io/burning-crac... #visualnovel #vndev

I made a thing! Joined the One-Page Weekender jam in a whim, and came up with this simple solo journaling game about fallen angel. sbhunter.itch.io/not-holy-any... #solorpg #solojournaling #ttrpg #indie #fallenangel #tarot #one-page

I still have that fast and furious in me, I guess

What am I even writing at 00.00 am...

Wait. Now that I think about it, I have a perfect OC for my depression. And it's just perfect that now it's the season of sakura (and nano is not over lol)

YCH heart sign comm! Still available on vgen.co/izha ✨

Sumpu Castle! I've been wanting to come here for a while. Finally got the chance! The sakura trees haven't fully bloomed yet, but gotta say this place is 10/10 recommended, especially if you like history because this place is heavily related to Tokugawa Ieyasu and JP's trade back in the day

I probably won't continue my otome projects and I've restricted the itch pages. The main reason is I found my drawings to be super cringe. Thank you

I think it's because I went to the flower park yesterday, since last night, my nose has been stuffy and my throat is hurts

The 2026 #AmareGamesFestival Bulletin is out now🎉 This special edition tracks all the fantastic games from the Festival! We received 68 submissions Check them out 👇 amaregames.itch.io/amare-festiv... #AmareGame #Amare #OtomeGame #Otome #VisualNovel #InteractiveFiction

Finally using my pen again haha. Congrats on the funding @elsethgames.com ! #JestMesstersFanart

Funniest thing I've read today: "To conserve energy, turn off your stove after you finish cooking."

Today, I decided to procrastinate by going to my local flower park. It was raining lightly. The tulips are so beautiful. There are sakura trees too, but they are not in full bloom yet. I regret nothing.

My first VN was released in 2020. This year is 2026. It's almost my sixth year, but honestly I don't see much improvement. And six years mean I'm not a noob anymore, right? Honestly, trying to keep up with the standards is tiring (and my drawings and writing suck) haha

Thank you for 150+ plays for [Ferris Wheel and the World's End] and Naenia! Play/download here for free: Ferris Wheel altila.itch.io/ferris-wheel... Naenia altila.itch.io/naenia If you enjoy the game, consider leaving rating or comment or both. Thank you! #vndev #visualnovel #indiegame #indiedev

Altila's 2025 roundup (maybe, hopefully). The characters of the #visualnovel I made in 2025! Can you name them all plus which VN they are from? (There are already so many of them, but I still have a lot of OCs on my basement. Help.) #vndev

So, this month, I actually made 2 drafts for VNs, but I scrapped them all HAHA!! I think I'm in a slump

I Became an Evil Witch that Cursed the Male Lead is released for #NaNoRenO2026! Features: ✦2 yandere love interests ✦4 endings (1 bad end, 2 secret ends, and 1 continuation end) ✦Interactive choices! Play here: fluuen.itch.io/i-became-an-... #otomedev #vndev #visualnovel

I'm shelving some of my games for no particular reason. Thank you.

In games, I have best boy and "best boy". One is the one that I will pair with the bestest girl and the other is the one that I won't give to anyone else. In FE3H, I pair Felix with best girl (Annette), but no one but my Byleth can have Ashe. In FE Engage, I won't choose anyone but Alfred (JP).

I need more LIs with glasses in otome games

I'm bad at metroidvania games, maybe because I'm directionally challenged

As much as I like OT1, I find it weird that they are traveling together as a party. Doesn't that mean Therion robbed everyone in front of Ophilia, a Sister? Aren't some of them in a hurry too?

On Chapter 2 in Octopath... Primrose, Therion, and Alfyn are fighting for the top spot of my favorite. It's funny that I kinda prefer using Alfyn, an axe-swinging apothecary, instead of Ophilia, a proper cleric. I think I overleveled while looking for the secondary job shrine

Playing Octopath Traveler. It consumes my soul immediately

Did you know on #itchio you can go to "Analytics > More > Edit Comments > Pending Posts" on your games and potentially have comments pending? I just checked mine and I am super touched 😭😻❤️💖 I didn't realize more people had commented than I thought!!! 🙌🫂🙇‍♀️ #gamedev #indiedev
