We wrote about the perils of making your second game, and everything we've learned from ours. It's a lengthy read, but hopefully useful to some fellow indies out there. If you don't have all day, scroll all the way down for the key takeaways. ๐

We decided early-on to give our protagonist Stella an alien #pet named Chichi, but it took a few iterations to nail down the look. ๐

Remember when we dropped a lo-fi mini album and never brought it up again? So in case you never heard of it: Lacuna Lo-Fi is a chill remix of select tracks from our first game's soundtrack, available for free on the streaming platform of your choice! #lofi #gamemusic #ost

Thank *you*! Maybe we'll put together a side-by-side video with the final in-game visuals in the future. Might be interesting to see. โจ

We never shared this amazing Between Horizons #conceptart by @fredgambino.bsky.social, which greatly informed the game's visuals in its early stages! You can still recognize the DNA of some areas, from top to bottom: the Bridge, Public Area, and Inner Hull. (The park idea was later scrapped.)

Between Horizons is a 2.5D detective adventure set aboard a generation ship. 33 years into its journey to another star, its mission is in jeopardy. Find clues, confront suspects, and solve a series of non-linear cases before it's too late. Your choices will decide the Zephyr's fate. #PitchYaGame

We are very happy to announce that Between Horizons 1.2.0 is live on Steam and GOG now! Lots of bug fixes, visual upgrades, convenience improvements โ and a brand new artwork that better reflects the sci-fi detective adventure gameplay.
Hope you enjoy! If so, please consider leaving a review. ๐

Four years on, Lacuna is still thriving. Earlier this year, it breezed past 300.000 copies sold, and we got to enjoy another orchestral rendition of its soundtrack. We never thought our debut title would make it this far. Thank you all so much, and happy anniversary! ๐ป #indiegame #indiedev

Hi! We are DigiTales Interactive, a small #indiegame studio from Germany. We created sci-fi detective adventures Lacuna (2021) and Between Horizons (2024) for PC and consoles. As of today, we're officially back and working on a new project! Hoping to leave X behind and find our peers here. ๐
