Hey everyone, My new game "Run Tekila Run!" will be released on January! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2704860/Run_Tekila_Run/ Hope you'll have a great fun time playing it. If you have a friend and a second gamepad, two player shared screen couch co-op mode is great! There are some funny moments and references that you don't want to miss. If you have a couple of hours to kill, please wishlist the game now. Game on, Tonguç

Hello everyone, My next game, The Redress of Mira finally has a store page. You can check it out and try out the demo now! https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33016994/128da52441bdc47aaf56998678538b5a10084c36.png It took me about a year to write the story plus make the game. This is my most "abundant" project. I enjoyed making every bit of it and hope you'll enjoy playing it the same way. ːdpglskittenː If you want to see a 4K 60 FPS version of the trailer, here's the Youtube link: https://youtu.be/Y_mI334OnSw While I can't identify this game as a walking simulator, it still has some atmospheric scenes and a captivating story. But in The Redress of Mira, there is more gameplay involved. https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33016994/5df2b8ed77a543e72811893ad4b79a8b96546c18.jpg To get a better grasp of this game, do try out the demo.

Hey everyone, My development on The Redress of Mira is going on steady with maximum love and attention to detail. As I mentioned in the previous post, it will offer a longer time to play than my previous games, therefore it is taking longer to make. Plus the large amount and variety of game mechanics are also extending the development phase even further. I am thankful to all of you for your patience and support. Starting to make an empty level from scratch is making me need too much caffeine, while getting near the end of it, making small tweaks, and adding nice details is a more relaxing and -to me- fun job. So The Redress of Mira is a cycle of each of these states of mind as a whole game. I think I'm proud of what I did so far on this one. As there are still so many things left to do on this project, the game's release date is currently not clear. BUT I have a fancy date in my mind like 11.11.22. However, there is some chance it can be earlier than that. I'll keep you guys updated as I make progress. I am loving to make this game, and I work hard on it. To prove to you how much different it is from my past works, and to give you some idea about the visual side of it, here's a shot from one of its cutscenes (It is WIP and subject to change): https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33016994/f8fceb0282b314d0060779dff9e83623b237fcda.jpg Take care y'all!

Hey everyone! I have been heavily working on my next game for some months. Its name is "The Redress of Mira". As many of you requested, it has a rich and profound story. Just arranging it, making it parallel with the gameplay took me a very long time. The game will feature some fantasy elements along with eye-candy nature vistas. I received some feedback about some of my previous games being shorter than expected so this next one will offer a longer gameplay duration; maybe about four times longer than Cions of Vega for example. Or maybe about three times longer than Nephise: Ascension? But the gameplay won't be just forever walking on a path. It will offer a high variety of interactions at every corner. I'll try my best to finish development and release it in 2022, that's all I can say for now. Anyway, I'm going back to development now but before I go, here's a teaser of the game: https://youtu.be/AHKPKhLRvsc Hope you enjoy it. Stay safe, my friends! =) Tonguç

Hey everyone, Nephise: Ascension & Drizzlepath: Deja Vu are now with trading cards. https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33016994/0402e97d780d92b3f51e7a0b155d52c68f9ad342.png Enjoy! Tonguç

Hey everyone, I'm back with yet another little exploration game! https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33016994/726dc551f2cf87ad7ad2cdb3a780e3875c8d6003.jpg Cions of Vega features a compelling story, fun interactions, charming music, beautiful visuals, professional voice acting, and more... In the game, your brother Logan accompanies you in your journey, so you won't be alone. Together you'll investigate residences and look for clues about where your runaway daughter might have been to. The store page is live so you can wishlist it right away. Do take a look at the trailer, screenshots and the "About This Game" section. You're going to like what you see ;) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1577240/Cions_of_Vega/ Also if you want to watch the trailer in 4K 60 FPS, here's the Youtube video link: https://youtu.be/9B87BVAGVrE The game will be released very soon. It is my personal favorite self made project so far, and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did while making it. With love and respect, Tonguç

Hey everyone! I have been working for a long time on Bottle: Pilgrim's enhancements. Yesterday I have released a major update. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33016994/eecfcd84dac35772e9e321a0de085185a508399a.png The game looks, sounds, and plays much better than the original version now. I won't write them down one by one here; if you want to know more about the changes, head over to the link below: https://steamcommunity.com/app/735350/discussions/0/3002173313622227882/ This is a free major update of one of your favorite games. Even its name has changed, now it is Bottle: Pilgrim Redux. If there was something weak for you in the previous version, why don't you give it another try now? It's much better in many aspects with the new update. With love and respect, Tonguç

Hey everyone, Starting from today, Nephise Begins will be free to buy (and yours to keep for good) for a week. ːnephgrabː https://store.steampowered.com/app/628950 Also for the same duration, Nephise Collection Bundle will be 25% off instead of its regular 15% discount ːnephbellː Below is the link to the bundle page; https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/11596/Nephise_Collection/ Do not go outside to walk; I didn't make those walking sims for no reason ;) Stay safe, stay at home, and spread the word while you don't miss the chance! Much love and respect, Tonguç

Hey everyone, After nearly 3 years I have made some cool enhancements on Nephise Begins!

• First I have migrated the project to Unreal's latest version. With that I have added a compass system to the game so the player will notice whenever there is a skull to collect nearby, and going to see its direction.
• Another thing I did is adding volumetric fog to the game so the lighting is better now. Also with the help of the volumetric fog, the mushrooms that you'll want to collect are better visible from mid-distance due to the red light the emit.
• I did some small fix in the game's code.
• I made some enhancements in the game's UI so it looks more proper.
• I have removed tessellation from the landscape so now the game should run smoother.
• Finally I have removed the unrealistic fur from the fox and replaced it with a better looking one.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28542996/e26b40c65ed452fe74b900e42784b13e6a6174ae.png Hope you enjoy the game, and in case you're on the fence to buying it, maybe it is time you give it a try since it is overall a better experience with this update. Game on! ːdpeagleiaː Tonguç Note: If you happen to play the game with the version before this update, all you have to do is go to game properties, under the Betas tab select "before big update".
