Ever wonder who makes EdgeFox Interactive sound like a world you can actually live in? 🎧✨ Meet Melody, our Audio Director, behind the music, mood, and punchy SFX, and the heroic ‘no’ to “just make it louder.”

Just casually building a game about gods, memory, and consequences.
No big deal. 🔥
#OlympusAscendant

We put gods, farming, combat, and feelings in one game.
This seemed like a reasonable idea at the time.

🎄✨ Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Aellyn Studios team! 🎉

Ever wondered what it sounds like when the 12 Olympians (minus one) take on the "12 Days of Christmas"? 🎶🎤 Expect a dash of chaos and a lot of fun!

#HolidaySeason #ChristmasVibes #BehindTheScenes #12DaysOfChristmas

We've officially hit over 50 villagers in our latest test, exploring new terrain with ease. Maybe we'll never break it, or maybe my computer is just that powerful! 💪😄

Today I opened the project, fixed one thing, broke another, questioned my life choices, then continued like everything was normal. 🔥🪲

Evening scroll time.
Drop something cool you’ve made today: Art, code, lore, cursed bug, whatever! Help fill my feed with more incredible content! 💙

Alright everyone, hit me with your wisdom: What’s ONE tiny mechanic in your game that you're irrationally proud of?

Doesn’t matter how silly or simple. I love seeing the little touches everyone obsesses over. Mine is the roaming villager barks. They have jumpscared me more times than I will admit.

A little overview of the chaos I call “my projects” 🌱

🎮 Olympus Ascendant - Cosy Greek mythology RPG.
🌲 Tales of the Valente - Gentle children’s adventure about bravery.

Running multiple games at once is… a choice.
Might not be the smartest choice, perhaps, but definitely a fun one.

It’s officially December, which means it’s time for my yearly tradition of pretending everything is under control. 🎄🔥

Unreal update:
I fixed one tiny issue… and in return the engine broke three completely unrelated things out of spite.

Blueprints is truly the gift that keeps on giving (me stress).

If anyone else is knee-deep in engine chaos tonight: solidarity.

Today’s plan:
- Convince a blueprint to do the one simple thing I asked
- Attempt to fix a UI element that keeps drifting like it’s on a spiritual journey
- Drink water
- Forget to drink water
- Accidentally start working on a different game entirely

If I achieve even two of these, that’s a win.

Hey all! I’m Melissa an Indie Game Dev from Aus, with multiple projects at Aellyn Studios. 
- Olympus Ascendant - Greek mythology, cosy roguelike RPG.
- Tales of the Valente - Cosy children’s adventure about conquering fears.

If you like:
Unreal chaos, devlogs, and cursed bugs… hi, welcome in.

Today’s devlog summary:
I told the camera to behave.
It said “absolutely not.”

That’s it. That’s the post.

(If anyone needs me, I’ll be negotiating with Blueprints like it’s a hostage situation.)

Ever have one of those days? 🐞🔧 Fix one bug, and two more appear! Definitely not the Fixed
This isn't the buy-one-get-one-free deal I was wanting today... 😂 Anyone else feel like coding is just a game of whack-a-mole? #IndieGameDev #GameDevLife #CodingStruggles

Dev Log: We Un-Cursed the Planet 🌏✨

Turns out the world was shaped a bit like a dodgy pringle edges bending weirdly and trees flying without even pissing off the Gods. We’ve cleaned up the curvature, so it feels a lot smoother to explore.

Dev Log: Camera vs Player Speed 🏃📷

Fixed the issue where you could sprint so fast the camera gave up like a tired dad in a swivel chair. It now keeps up, so you can’t yeet yourself off-screen quite as easily (not impossible… we know gamers).
