You will find many obstacles in your path, and not all of them can be blasted to bits. Treacherous traps and environmental hazards await behind every corner, and your precise movement and decisive, quick actions might be the only way to save you from certain death!

A Sister's Journey is designed to be a tough experience at its core, brutally trying to ensure that your death counter will rise up, and quickly - but always in a fair and beatable way. Learn, adapt, and master its trials - and if you remain steadfast, that delightful feeling of accomplishment will reward you profoundly.

If you're simply looking for a more relaxed experience though, and just want to focus on enjoying the story and exploring the world, A Sister's Journey got you covered. The game will feature a special Spiritual Guidance Mode - which you can turn on anytime.

Great #screenshotsaturday y'all!

Here's another exciting new game mechanic I'd like to show you today, as well as its freshly baked animation! Activate all crystal orbs in a room (without dying!), and... Well, see for yourselves! 😎💥

Deadly traps await at every corner in the darkest depths of these ancient ruins! Here are just a few more to avoid and escape from. But don't worry, this is still one of the easier levels 😇

Here's a small selection of various powerups or otherwise beneficial collectables you will be able to find throughout the game 💫✨

Great Monday everyone!

Here are the recharge and shatter animations for Violet's shield, which I'm working on right now 🌀

Acquired in the first half of the game, it gives the player a bit extra survivability, along with some extra mechanics!

While not initially being active (and deadly) all the time, once disturbed this creeping tainted stuff is spreading everywhere, and fast! Better be quick or you might find yourself trapped - or worse: devoured! 🐙💀

Here's a little teaser of some new deadly stuff I've recently been working on. 😈

Better watch your step carefully when exploring these ice caves 🥶❄️ Oh, and probably your head as well!

Happy relaxing Sunday everyone!

I've heard you like particles, so here's some more fun with those debris particles, this time interacting with the lava, resulting in even more particles! 🔥

Alrighty, I've just finished implementing floating platforms in the game, because there can't be any lava levels without floating lava platforms, right?!
