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!

Burnouts are the worst part of it all 😔
Take your time, we're all be waiting for your return whenever it happens!
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 👁👁
It looks amazingg
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 😞
At the beginning of next month the wait will finally end!
✦The launch date for Contra Spem Spero will be announced August 1st.
✧Consider wishlisting it if you haven’t already - it helps more than you might think!

Backing track is new music I made for the game.
#solodev #horrorgame #indiedev
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 🎉
Ah, you see, it was so early in development that I genuinely thought it’d be quicker to just wing it and hope for the best.
Safe to say I’ve learned my lesson and will make sure never to make this mistake again 🤕
Not the best time to be a perfectionist, must say. But I'm glad this stage is over 😅

Thank you so much for the wishlist, it really means a lot!
I’ll definitely keep an eye on your game too; it looks fantastic already 🤗 Good luck with the development!
Aw thank you!
I keep working on it, I do ✍️
The intrigue intensifies 👀
I'm sure you'll do just that! Wishing you good luck and even more wonderful ideas while you're at it 🙌
Hi! Thank you very much, same goes for you. Yes, it is! 🤗 Here's the direct link:

Right, the demo's length was also something that got a bit 'out of control' haha
But I’m real happy you played it all the way through; that’s the biggest reward for all the work. Thanks so much for keeping me motivated 🤗
I'm curious about what other mechanics will be in the game, and just how bad ‘nothing bad’ will actually get once things start. I just hope it’s not too bad, I’m already rooting for them 😅 Even if it doesn’t go too gory, I think the story’s emotional side could still really stick with you
19.07.2025 20:37 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Ooh, I really like that setup, it’s such a great mix of wholesome and creepy (what could possibly go wrong, right?) And I love that we get to actually take part in setting up the scavenger hunt rather than just jumping straight into it.
19.07.2025 20:36 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Good for you! That's something I'd wish for every dev😞
It might surprise you, but it was the plot. I never expected the story to end up this long, and the writing, editing, and translating have definitely been a struggle.. all that even though it’s my favorite part of the whole development process😅
(and I’m always open to spoilers, just saying)
19.07.2025 19:51 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Ah I get that, sometimes it’s those small details that only we devs notice :D But they really make all the difference, so it’s commendable you’re putting in that dedication. The whole world you're building sounds so intriguing; can't wait to see how their story unfolds in full!
19.07.2025 19:51 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Mind you, I’d probably spend a whole week on the same task, so I’d say time’s not just an unknown concept to a dev, but a very relative one 🤕
19.07.2025 19:39 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0So true! The toughest parts are often the most rewarding ones. And you've already created such a unique set of characters, it's awesome to see them evolve day by day. Definitely time well spent, I'd be proud too 🙌
19.07.2025 19:33 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0That's hella long, just as expected 😭
19.07.2025 19:31 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0My oh my, those look amazing. I can only imagine how much time and effort it takes to create even one expression. The textures look neat, too - love the balance of details and stylization 👀
19.07.2025 19:06 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Love seeing appreciation for good surreal games 👀
Would you mind adding me? The way you described the pack is exactly what I’m aiming for in my own game!
The hardest facial expression, yet so fitting for this particular situation 😭
