To celebrate, Witchy Life Story is now 35% OFF until Halloween! Also, check out our new trailer below. Taylor Ambrosio Wood, who composed the music for our first game, The Window Box, did the music.

Thank you! First of all, a big THANK YOU to everyone who bought, played, streamed, shared, and reviewed our game this past week. Without your support, our launch wouldn't have been such a success!!! And if you enjoyed Witchy Life Story but haven't had the chance to review it yet, please do! Reviews are a great way to keep supporting games like ours! :) Now for the update...

- Winter 2022 Dev Update! - 7 March 2022
Hello Everyone! I've got a pretty fun update for you this month! Other than a ton of progress being made on Witchy Life Story, we're going to be part of an exciting event this week. I've been heads-down this winter writing and polishing the game. It's probably 90% written at this point, but it still needs to be edited and all that stuff. I've also been busy with tasks like making buttons pop. and making sure everything is working the way it's supposed to be working. Basically tying up a bunch of loose ends that makes everything look nice (or nicer, since I'm not quite done yet...). On the art side of things, Sara, WLS's character and background artist, added two more outfits to our character creator. They created a Kiki's Delivery Service-inspired dress, and a flashy shirt and pants set! Lianne, WLS's objects/flower and UI artist, redid the incense and charm spell art for the game to ma…
- Let's make some witches! - 29 October 2021
Happy Halloween Everyone! If you’ve been watching our TikToks and Instagram feed, you’ve probably seen our character creator previews this month. So I thought it’d be fun to give you all a first look at our character creator in-game for our October newsletter! We’ve been working on this feature for a year now, and it feels great to show it off finally. I knew from the start that I wanted Witchy Life Story to have a character creator, so planning started early in the development process. Every member of our four-person team contributed to this feature, just to give an idea of just how much work and love went into it. So keep reading for a behind-the-scenes look into the creation of our character creator and how it all looks in-game! Yes, before we get into it, I realize the “Moles” checkbox is not aligned with the rest of the checkboxes. I said we’re still working on it, right?? Anyways!…
