[h2]It's a boy![/h2]

During the weekend one of our dog had a little baby dog

It's a boy, weighing 160g. We named him Viking because he's a warrior, just like his father, King.

It's been a rough week managing this alongside the Kickstarter campaign, but I'm glad to have the end in sight. I'm humbled by all the support you guys have shown in the comments, on Discord, Twitter, Reddit, in the game world, and through my emails.

[h2]THANK YOU![/h2]
I hope to see Paper Sky fly

1 year of gamedev

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
[h3]I made this special video to celebrate the 1 year of developing this game. I actually started working on this game 3 years ago after my last project released.[/h3]

New Windows & Linux demo build


[h3]I've updated the Paper Sky Demo with new optimization features, now pretty much anybody can play the demo without performance issues!

I fixed the Linux build that previously had some graphical issues, now it's working perfectly. You may want to switch the graphics API to Vulkan when playing it on your linux machine or on the Steam Deck by using this executable command: "-force-vulkan"[/h3]

Paper Sky 25% funded, including wishlist graph and more!



[h3]Hey there, special announcement for the Kickstarter campaign, we just hit our first milestone of 25% funded in just 3 days![/h3]

By far my favorite game journalist and news reporter, I highly recommend following his stuff on Twitter, it's highly curated and very detailed stuff. The creator also used to help me setup the linux build of my previous game Crumble. So this guy is as real as it gets

-IGN Japan

Huge plug there, couldn't really understand what was said but I hope it's good stuff!

Yoo thank you everyone for following my journey and participating, supporting, playing, commenting, and reading! This is the most important thing for a solo-dev.
Love you all

Paper Sky is a joyful flight sim for people who suck at flight sims, and there’s a demo out now

My experience with actual flight simulators typically amounts to approaching the runway far, far too quickly at far, far too perpendicular an angle, so perhaps I’m better off just flying folded-up bits of A4. Happily, that’s exactly what Paper Sky, a "semi-open world paper plane adventure" from solo indie dev Brute Force, is offering.
