Hey all!
Haven't posted an update in a while because I was struggling to keep productivity up and I'm going through a pretty turbulent period of my life.
I'm recovering from depression that made it quite difficult to do anything so making updates was a low-priority thing for a while.

So, this year I am planning to be finally done with the adventure that was the development of Magic of Spring.
That means I am finally coming back to Light of the Locked World!

Hey all,
Just wanted to share links to games I am currently working on right now.
Beyond the Gate
I recently added this game to Steam: I plan to release it early next year.
It's a small game I made years ago - I decided to update it and release it on Steam.

Hi all,
As I've mentioned earlier, the LOTLW development is paused at the moment.
The reason for that is that I'm working on a different game.
Normally I wouldn't start a new game while the previous one isn't finished, but I made an exception for that game because it's a "now or never" situa…
