Today, we’re continuing from where we left off in last week’s blog post, so if you haven’t checked that one out yet, I’d highly recommend reading it first! I primarily covered how the core case idea for GENBA no Kizuna evolved over time and how that also led to the creation of our little circle …

So, by now, we’ve heard back from the first couple of beta-testers who’ve managed to play through the entirety of GENBA no Kizuna. I don’t want to get into their impressions of the story, characters, mystery or really the game overall just yet. I’ll save that for once we’ve heard back from everyone. What I …

As mentioned in last week’s blog post, the beta-test phase for GENBA no Kizuna is now officially underway! The beta build is in the hands of our testers and although no one has completed their run yet, I did already receive some very helpful feedback reports!

As the title of this post already gave away, this past week, I’ve been primarily concerned with testing GENBA no Kizuna and refining it!

Because, even though both projects do have a lot of similarities, …

Happy New Year!! We’re already one week into 2024 and so I hope that you had a very pleasant and already successful start into it! In last week’s blog post, I looked back at the entirety of 2023 and although a lot of cool things certainly did happen and a ton of progress was made, …

Today, we’re just gonna have a super quick post again, since I’m currently very busy with a lot of things, given that Christmas is right around the corner now! Next Saturday, however, we’ll make up for that with a much longer post in the shape our annual retrospect. As always, I will take a look …

As mentioned in last week’s blog post, I have now moved on to working on the credits for GENBA no Kizuna. Just like in SHINRAI, they aren’t just a sequence of development categories and names, but get interspliced with some short dialogue exchanges between the characters you have met throughout the game. As such, they …
