demo version of "Beyond the Curtains" is now released for free

Hello followers:

The demo version of "Beyond the Curtains" is now released for free.

This trial offers a glimpse into part of the theme "The Last Leaf". Through the dweller's eyes, catch fleeting vignettes of the lives unfolding beyond the glass. Let the ever-changing scenery beyond the window accompany you through moments of tranquil leisure.



*Please note the demo only contains a small sampling of the full narrative progression.

Make Your Mark on the World Outside

Hello followers,

Sometimes in our daily lives, the smallest actions can create subtle ripples in our surroundings. A smile exchanged, a brief glance - these can spark little shifts in the cadence of our familiar routines.

In our game, while you can't directly interact with the characters and creatures living beyond your window, a simple click of the mouse allows you to gently influence their behaviors and activities in modest ways.



Though the room's resident is merely an observer in this cozy community, they remain indelibly connected to the ebb and flow of town life.

Your character may be stuck inside looking out, but the outside world still responds to your unassuming presence, weaving you into the fabric of the neighborhood's unhurried rhythms.

We're excited for you to discover all the understated yet meaningful ways you can leave your mark when peering through that window view into a living, breathing world.

A playable demo arriving this weekend will let you experience it for yourselves. If this tranquil, grounded vignette about simple interconnectivity has caught your interest, stay tuned for more updates on the road to launch!

Introducing the Time-Based Game System

Hello followers,



In the trailer footage, you can see swaying curtains and drifting clouds. These are our efforts to represent the "flow of time" in a tangible way.


But it's more than just visuals. As players continually cycle between day and night, time actually keeps moving forward. And the things outside the window will change accordingly...




That's all I can share for now without giving too much away! Let me know if you have any other questions as we get closer to launch.

If you like our design approach, let us know. Whether it's introducing our game to friends, leaving a comment, or just a simple like - every bit of engagement lets us know you're beside us on this long development journey. We'd love to hear your thoughts.

5/25 CooMIC Creative Space Exhibition Highlights

We had a blast exhibiting our upcoming titles 'Beyond the Curtains' and 'Alice's World' at the CooMIC 2 Creative Space event this past weekend! Check out some pics from the show floor:



While the expo was absolutely packed, it seemed like most attendees were glued to their phones instead of checking out the awesome games on display.

You'd think our lofi type work 'Beyond the Curtains' would be perfect to check out while waiting in those long queues. Maybe next time we'll need to set up a giant monitor right in the middle of the line maze and ncourage people to check out 'Beyond the Curtains'. They really need to look up from their phones!

Huge thanks to everyone who did stop by our booth. We were blown away by the positive feedback on both games. We're excited to reveal more details soon more about 'Beyond the Curtains' and 'Alice's World' as we get closer to launch!
