Perhaps the most mysterious inhabitant of the forest of them all.
Why is he hidden in such a secluded place? What knowledge lies behind the constellation of his unblinking eyes? If only he could tell us..

Thank you so much for playing!
I see you've already explored the entire map and made great progress on LD's route, nice job!
I hope you’re enjoying the game. If you get the chance to finish it, leaving a Steam review would be a huge help.
Wishing your channel lots of growth 🤗

Спасибо за то, что помните и играете! Очень приятно видеть то, как каждому аспекту игры уделено столь пристальное внимание. Рад, что она пришлась вам по вкусу настолько, чтобы пройти ее досконально; о таких приверженных игроках только мечтал.

Since it’s the spooky season, I thought I’d start sharing the remaining concept art for some of the most exclusive characters from our cozy little forest.
If you haven’t met them yet.. what are you waiting for?🎃

Contra Spem Spero releases August 14!

Who will help you escape the forest? Or better yet — is escape even possible? It won’t be long before the answer becomes clear.

Stay tuned for more on the road to release!

Ah, the good old classic settings 😁 Both the old idea and the current one are worthy, though!

I’ll be waiting for them to show up on their own 👁👁

If this room doesn’t end up leading to a happy ending with all the girls safe and having a wholesome slumber party, I’m going to be heartbroken 😞

It's my birthday today so I thought I'd make a recap of all the #gamedev I did since last year. Also I heard I get to wish for reposts today?😶‍🌫️
Backing track is new music I made for the game.

What a productive year, amazing recap! It already feels like I just watched a full game trailer 😁 The music ties it all together beautifully, really nostalgic vibes.
Happy birthday! I hope you have a fantastic day 🎉
