#indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #pixelart

We just dropped a new trailer for Dark Queen of Samobor (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71fXnpTUGZk), narrated by Sandra Lončarić, a renowned Croatian actress. It got showcased in Best Indie Games Summer Showcase 2025 hosted by Best Indie Games.

Reap is released! Try it out and let me know what you think! :D

I haven't posted anything in a while so I just wanted to notify you that Reap is coming along very nicely and it will most likely be published next week. Hope you'll like it! :D

I added trampolines into Reap. I guess it's a weird to combine Grim Reaper and Trampolines but whatever, it's fun non the less. #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

How we made our combat more juicy

During playtesting sessions we realized that our combat system didn't feel as engaging as it should.

Read about the steps we took to make it feel more impactful

We showcased our game at 2 gaming events (even Deadpool played it).

People managed to tear it apart but that's just what we needed. Coming up soon: playtesting with our Discord community (https://discord.gg/RVZ2FZmabT)
