Proud to say our Steam page for Enfant is now live. Itโ€™s a surreal moment seeing this elephant of ours step out into the world. If you grew up on classic action/adventure games and love a good metroidvania, this might be for you

Enfant got accepted to show at SXSW Games showcase this week, pretty bloody proud and excited to demoing to the general public in a few months... I have so much work to do ๐Ÿ™ƒ

We've finally created an official account for Enfant, of course it also gets flagged as spam straight away ...

The player stumbles on a hidden path behind a waterfall, a small detour that leads to a hidden quest.

Trying to pack the world full of these small surprises...

Thanks Crimson! Sharp eye ;) the frogs you see are just the static idols, I haven't got the animated frogs in this scene yet but when I do, they'll react to you in surprise and dive away before maybe giving you a small quest to find their lost brethren

This #screenshotsaturday I'm working on a little side area, where you can find some frog friends deep in worship of their king. Still very much a wip but coming along...

We're still early in development, but Enfant's world has deep roots and plenty of stories to tell. More to come in the months ahead :)

I'm pretty sure about 90% of gamedev is just making things combustable.

This is my first time posting on Bluesky and I'll use it to post a #screenshotsaturday about my #gamedev efforts on Enfant. Just me noodling around with the camera system... follow me for more of this I guess ๐Ÿคท?
