We are so hyped, this is our new game ... *drum roll* PVKK: Planetenverteidigungskanonenkommandant The game comes from a love of pressing satisfying buttons and a fascination of old cockpits. Mix that with a bit of escape room and "Papers, Please" and you got PVKK.

This is Engraving - a horror adventure game where you draw your own map to uncover the secrets of a cursed, shifting forest. It's a passion project I have been working on for two years now in the #GodotEngine Wishlist and Follow on Steam, I really appreciate it!

We're super happy to have PVKK featured in this years "Games Forged in Germany" showcase! We'll do a dive into a really cool progression feature :) You can catch us during the show on July 24th at 10:30am PDT / 1:30pm EDT / 7:30pm CEST! See you then! 👋

In the fifth PVKK devlog, Olivia is sharing many insights into the narrative and world building we do, what role the story has and how it can elevate the gameplay :) Read it here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/29560…

A proper highlight of the fourth PVKK devlog is a video from our sound designer @TorbsAudio, showcasing some sounds and how he created them. Even as an "insider" on the project it's very interesting and impressive to me :) A pro! youtube.com/watch?v=pcfH7e…

I'm really happy to share that Kepler Interactive will publish PVKK: Planetenverteidigungskanonenkommandant!💪🥳 Working with Kepler is awesome and enables us to make a better game, focussing on what we are good at. You'll find us in their Steam Sale :) store.steampowered.com/sale/Kepler2025

Rift Riff just released and one of its rifts has remnants of a Dome Keeper dome! The keeper is long gone, but the orchard tree is still very much alive. If you (like me) look for a fantastic afterwork game that is both chill and engaging, check this :) store.steampowered.com/app/2800900/Ri…
