Hi everyone,

I’m happy to share that my friends — the Wirion team, creators of the awesome biopunk game Athanasy (definitely check it out) — have announced their new project, which got its own Steam page today.

DDD: Demons Double Down

I also contributed to this game (mostly on the organizational side), and I’m sure that if you like my projects, you’ll like this one too.

What makes it interesting?

• A memorable and unique visual style;

• Unusual nightclub settings for the genre — can’t say more because \;

• Memorable characters with vivid personalities and their own secrets;

• Metaphors, references, satire, mysticism, and everything else — it’s all here.

The game is coming out this year, so please support us and add it to your wishlist.

WISHLIST DDD: Demons Double Down

Hi everyone!

A new game from the “Legends of Savvara” series is out — featuring Nikaria, Chazir’s agent, and a cultist of Dadar.

It’s a small and not very long game, but it’s packed with content and offers plenty of choices and branching paths. I’d really appreciate your support.

Hi everyone!

Happy upcoming New Year (or Christmas). It’s time to sum up the year and talk about what’s next, right?

Also, if you’d like to support me, you can leave a review on any of the projects.

OVERALL!

It’s been a productive year, but also a hard one—and, overall, quite unsuccessful.

This is the year when I rethought a lot of things and, so to speak, accepted my global failure. Meaning the failure of Savvarah as a whole. And the understanding that Savvarah as a series didn’t work out (this is more about me and bad decisions than about Savvarah itself, but that’s just lyrical stuff and not that important/interesting).

So, what happened this year:

1. Release of the game “Legends of Savvarah: Children of the Sun.”

LINK!

This game took a ton of strength from me and probably became the hardest—though, in hindsight, obvious—failure. There’s nothing else to add.

2. Release of “I Drink Sorrel Coffee to Reboot Reality, But Monster Girls and Armed Agents Are Hunting Me.”

LINK!

An attempt to do something different. It was originally a small project that, completely by accident, got a publisher (and a rating, since it wasn’t intended to be adult).

Now I understand what I should’ve done to make the project work better, but—what can you do.

I also consider it a failure, since both I and the publisher expected different numbers, but in terms of money “Coffee” has earned (and is earning) more than Savvarah (all current projects combined).

3. Release of a DLC for “Legends of Savvarah: Time of the Pariah.”

LINK!

I think the DLC turned out great. It became part of the main game and probably improved the game overall.

Also, I wanted to try Steam’s featuring/promo cycle for major updates. And… well, no miracle happened.)

I don’t regret the time spent, but I don’t plan to return to this game anymore.

Two more books set in the world of Savvarah were also released, but since they don’t have translations yet, it’s not that important.

Overall, I classify all projects—from books to games—as failures. This is tied both to problems at the promotion stage and to problems at the idea level (not all projects), but I’ve drawn certain conclusions, so I hope the next projects will be more successful.

Which brings me to…

PLANS!

Right away: earlier I talked about various Savvarah projects—about orcs and so on. Many of them are now frozen. This year I weighed which projects are worth taking on, because right now I can’t afford long and complex development. Because of that, some projects were postponed for later in the hope that I’ll have more resources and opportunities after the next releases.

1. Legends of Savvarah: Flowers and Scorpions.

LINK!

Coming out in January 2026. The game has been fully finished for a long time, but everything dragged on because I decided to add voice acting.

It’s a funny situation: “Legends of Savvarah: Flowers and Scorpions” is the shortest game, and it was supposed to be released first.

I’ll say this upfront: everything you might not have liked in “Time of the Pariah” is there. It’s a fairly short story with a certain “breadth” of choice.

Yes—because all projects were made at the same time, the mistakes across them are more or less the same.

2. Legends of Savvarah: Crisis of Tigonia.

This project definitely won’t be released in 2026. It’s being made slowly and, so to speak, as a side product, but I have no doubts that it will happen.

Reminder: the main character is the king of Water Tigonia, and the story takes place 800 years after the events of “Time of the Pariah.”

It will be a visual novel, but with some gameplay additions (progression, turn-based battles, and elements of country management). But don’t expect a full-fledged strategy game.

18+ content is still a question mark. I’m thinking.

3. I'm a cursebreaker | Aurora.

You could call this the flagship project, with a release currently planned for early 2027. This is probably the one I have the highest hopes for.

Very briefly: urban fantasy setting, chthonic monsters, a cozy game vibe, light romance, and turn-based combat.

We play as David. He’s a cursebreaker and a demon hunter. One day a girl shows up on his doorstep—one who is under a demonic curse.

The goal of the game is to save her from the curse. The story will also include various side plots (with the usual branching/variability).

It’s still in an early stage, but at the beginning of the year I plan to move into more active development.

4. Что-то еще.

There are a few more projects that will be announced later for various reasons (either they’re looking for/waiting for a publisher, or they’re at a very early stage, or something else).

I won’t announce them yet, but I’ll show pictures : )

That’s it.

If you want, you can subscribe to the Steam page. If you like what I do, you can support me with a purchase/review—or even just a comment here. Thanks everyone, and happy holidays : )

Hello!

Thank you for your attention.

I hope you enjoyed the Time of Pariah update. And, as always, let me remind you that your Steam reviews help the game’s visibility.

No further updates for Time of the Pariah are planned. I consider the game fully complete.

I’m working on several different projects. In the annual report I’ll likely go into detail, but for now here’s a quick word about one of them.

Next year, I’ve scheduled the release of Legends of Savvarah: Crisis of Tigonia.

I can’t give you an exact date. It’s possible we won’t make it next year at all—time will tell. A Steam page will appear at the end of this year.

Here’s what can be said about the upcoming game in the world of Savvarah:

Hello everyone!

A major update for Legends of Savvarah: Time of Pariah has been released (yes, I announced it as DLC, but in reality it’s a large free update to the main game).

For proper functionality, I recommend deleting the game, reinstalling it, and avoiding the use of old saves, since I cannot guarantee their correct synchronization.

Now, here’s what awaits you in this big update:

• a truly large story branch, The Honey House, full of variety, unexpected twists, and much more – plus more Otkor and more Viorra. The volume of new content is about one-third of the original game (details on how to access it below);

• two new characters: Tikia, Mistress of the Honey House, and Mahavir, an officer of the Kradzhan army;

• one new scene added to that very DLC with Tikia, Mistress of the Honey House;

• two new music tracks;

• one new ending (in two variations);

• 14 new achievements;

• 19 new illustrations;

• an easier way to reach the “Sudu Ending,” as well as a brand-new prologue that (by design) should provide a small introduction to the game world.

• I worked on editing the English text. Over a thousand different errors have been fixed. I sincerely regret that they were there in the first place. I hope you’ll find the current version much more enjoyable.

How to access the new content! If you haven’t played the game before, you can skip this part. The new content is already in the current version of the game—you’ll encounter it simply by playing (though whether you see it or not will depend on your choices :3).

Hi everyone!

Since Reddit wiped my account, deleted the group, and apparently slapped me with a site-wide ban (every new registration gets auto-banned within a day), you can follow my news only here for now.

If you read Russian, you can also subscribe to the Telegram channel.)

1. DLC “Time of Pariah”

I call it a DLC, but it’s really a large patch: the whole game will be updated, and you won’t have to buy anything.

The script is finished, so I can finally reveal the confirmed content:

• Two new characters

• One new 18 + scene

• One new ending (with two variations) plus new routes to existing endings

• 15 new achievements

Total size: 30 000 words (about one-third of the original game).

The DLC focuses on the Honey House branch, so expect another highly branching slice of the story.

Regarding Sudu: there won’t be a lot of new scenes with him, but there will be a simpler way to reach his ending.

I expect to release the update in late August 2025. In July I plan to finish the build, proofreading, and translation.

2. Release of “I drink Sorrel Coffee to reboot reality, but I'm being hunted by Monster Girls and armed agents”

Steam Link

This is a standalone visual novel, unrelated to Savvarah, and created by me as well.

It’s short yet quite branching. I honestly think the story turned out pretty good, so if you enjoy this kind of project, give it a try and maybe leave a review. )

3. Release delay for “Legends of Savvarah: Flowers and Scorpions”

Steam Link

The game is finished, but the release has been moved to September 2025.

Reason: I decided at the last moment to add full Russian voice acting.

I’ll write about the other projects later, when there’s more to share. Thanks for reading!
