Hello everyone! Back in 2024, I was fresh out of a job, and all I really knew was that I wanted to make games. I tried a few different ideas, but nothing truly materialized until Halls of the Pale Widow. That game ended up setting the tone and direction for what came next.

After what I’d consider the success of HotPW, I moved on to Sin Spire as a direct continuation and expansion of those ideas.

Sin Spire was no small undertaking. It’s a much larger game, with multiple characters, voiced dialogue, weapons, combat, a variety of enemies (even if the roster is still fairly small), branching dialogue, cutscenes, and plenty of other systems I’m probably forgetting to list. It was a huge step up. It was difficult, and I definitely drifted at points, but I’m glad I stuck with it. Despite the rough edges, I’m proud of what I managed to achieve.

Thanks to your support, encouragement, and feedback, I was able to push through and actually finish something of this scale. I’m genuinely thankful to every one of you, including those who offered more criticism than praise. Having an audience I could engage and make the game with, made a huge difference. Even something as small as a comment or a reaction might seem insignificant, but to me it really matters. Thank you.

Before this gets too sentimental, I do want to acknowledge a few things. There are still issues in the current build, with the dungeon generation bug being the most notable. The Twisted animation set was also never fully finished, mostly due to running out of time and ideas. If I do add any small content updates in the future, that’s likely where I’d start.

That said, I need a break.

More information on known issues and future plans can be found in previous dev logs and in the Steam release announcement here:

That’s all for now. Outside of small additions and updates, the Sin Spire chapter of my game development career is now closed. I hope you enjoy the game. I’m going to go have a drink and take a walk.

See you all later.
