Turning the Game Jam Prototype Into a Full Game

Two weeks ago, we submitted this project for Craftpix Game Jam 2025 #2.
We proudly finished 4th place — and that won’t slow us down.

You don’t need to stand on the podium to become legends.

After the jam, we talked, reviewed everything, and made a big decision:

👉 We’re officially turning this prototype into a full game coming to Steam.
This update is the first step of that adventure.
