In Lobo The Howl Within the end is always clear, but the path is an adventure full of combat, choices, and mystery.

Quick peek at my loot to equip flow. Open chest, grab gear, drop it straight into your hands. Still early, but the core is solid and works with both controller and KBM. More polish coming soon.

In Lobo, gear can break, but it’s not a punishment. It’s part of the world’s economy — repairing costs coin and pushes you to explore for resources and treasures. You’ll also meet the twin blacksmith brothers… from different fathers. Don’t ask.

In Lobo: The Howl Within, death isn’t the end, it’s part of the story. Fall damage keeps you grounded, and when you die, your gear drops where you fell. Return if you dare — your enemies will still be waiting.

This is a video from 3 months ago, when we tried to change our art direction, make our protagonist taller. The game feel is better! The UI elements are still placeholder.

Quick peek showcasing one of the environments in Lobo.

We are not alone in the fog, and they definitely don’t come alone.

Combat design, environment design, and sound design are still in progress.

Here is one of the very first cutscenes you'll see in DARK THREADS!

Polishing combat with directional hit reactions for more weight and variety. Finishers tuned for smooth, synced choreography.

And yes, enemies always drop loot. The Fallen even loses his helmet 😄
