In the past year, I have ADORED watching couples play Heartspell together. Those little moments of surprise when they learn something new about each other. If that sounds fun/cute to you, we're on sale right now.

The lovely folks over on the Feedback Force podcast had me on. It is FULL of spoilers, but if you're at a spot where you don't care about that and you want a bunch of peeks at how and why Heartspell was made definitely check it out: soundcloud.com/feedback-for...

Flaunt that shit!
Sick of scrolling games just to see AI disclosures at the bottom. When I see one, it's an automatic NOPE from me.
Celebrating that you are against AI is a great way to get me to look at, and cover your game!
100%!! Wow!! Everyone is so much faster than me ๐

I play Lin in #Heartspell, and I can't wait for you to get to know this bookworm-turned-monster better. Thanks to @direkittengames.bsky.social for having me, alongside an amazing cast from around the world.
See you in the academy!
This was the best thing I read on KU all year! And then I read about the CR and D&D inspiration and was like...NO WONDER I LOVED IT SO MUCH ๐ Looking forward to the sequel!
22.11.2025 00:01 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I got so hooked on Heartspell! The narrative pacing is perfect and there's so much thoughtful world building. Meaningful choices, and platonic friendships that are just as compelling as the romance. The minigame that gets (optionally) quite hard! I recommend it, especially for Exocolonist fans.

In celebration of our upcoming launch we added more content to our demo. In addition to polish improvements and bug fixes, we've also added second chapters for both Heron and Cassie (our poll winners). We hope to see you in class when the full game launches!

Our new demo update unlocks the practice arena. This lets you test your spellcasting puzzling skills infinitely AND gives you a little sneak peek of Dawn, our sports werewolf.

Our new demo update has three more of Morgan's chapters. Whether you're new to Heartspell or returning for the update, let us know if you're streaming and we'll come hang out and see what you think.
