- Devlog – Cosmic Fear: Development Update & Release Window - 2 February 2026
Hi everyone,I hope you’re all doing well. It’s been a little while since the last update, so I wanted to share how things are progressing behind the scenes of Cosmic Fear. Cosmic Fear’s development has taken a bit longer than expected, but I want to create my best horror game yet. Compared to The Land of Pain and The Alien Cube, this will be a significant evolution in every aspect. My goal is to craft a tense and atmospheric experience, blending Lovecraftian horror with a mysterious, otherworldly presence that grows as the story unfolds. This atmosphere emerges right from the beginning, as the protagonist’s investigation leads to reports of strange lights, disappearances, and a disturbing ceremony, hinting that something not entirely human is involved. Progress So Far The locations are already complete, and the world of Cosmic Fear is now very close to what I envisioned. There’s still w…

- LOVECRAFT EVENT & NEW GAME REVEAL - 6 April 2023
The Lovecraft Tag event on Steam has just begun! To celebrate this special moment, the game has been updated with an in-game event as a tribute to the most important source of inspiration for my games: H.P. Lovecraft. He was a writer of horror and weird stories, born in Providence in 1890. He is mostly known for the creation of the Cthulhu Mythos. In his tales he made frequent references to ancient and powerful gods called the "Great Old Ones". Lovecraft’s macabre imagination has been inspiring for my works, in particular his ability to convey a feeling of insignificance that characterizes man's place in the universe. His protagonists have to deal with a horrifying truth that should not be revealed to humanity. THE INGAME EVENT: It consists in a new main menu theme and a secret drawing that I’ve hidden somewhere in the game. Search everywhere and find it! This event will last one month.…
