- The Campaign Has Closed. Here Is Where We Are. - 26 August 2026
Hello everyone, Our Kickstarter campaign is now over and we’re still reeling from the amount of support we received. We raised just over $21K USD against an initial goal of $15,000 - which makes us 140% funded. We did not know if that was possible when we launched. You made it possible. We want to say thank you properly here, in a space where we can take a little more time with it. Every backer, every person who shared the campaign, every person who wrote about it or told a friend or posted about it somewhere - you are part of this now. We will not forget that. Rewards are still available If you missed the campaign window, some rewards are still available through late pledges on the Kickstarter page. Head there to see what is still on offer before those close too. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/twigames/hollow-home Where we are in development Hollow Home is in its final stage of d…
- Ukrainian Games Festival, an Updated Demo, and Where We Are - 17 August 2026
Hello everyone, A lot has happened since the last update so we wanted to sit down and tell you about all of it properly. Ukrainian Games Festival The Ukrainian Games Festival started today. If you have not taken a look yet, we recommend doing so - there are a huge number of games to discover, significant discounts on games, major announcements and several big releases all happening as part of the festival. It is one of our favourite moments in the calendar and this year it feels particularly meaningful to us. We are very proud to say that Hollow Home is participating, and to mark the occasion we have released the most substantial update to our demo since Next Fest. What is new in the updated demo This new, updated demo is a big step from the last playable version with significant changes - this is not a minor patch! This demo is meaningfully closer to the full version of Hollow Home tha…
- We are funded! Thank you all. - 13 August 2026
Hello everyone, We are funded. We genuinely did not know if we would be able to write those words, and now that we can we want to say thank you before we say anything else. Every single person who backed this campaign made a real difference to a small studio from Kyiv, and we will not forget that. This is not the end. It is the beginning of what we can now make together. Stretch goals - two new outfits for Maksym With the campaign funded, we are excited to announce our first stretch goals. If we can go further, we will be adding two brand new outfits for Maksym - additional ways to personalise your experience of the game. We will share more details on these as we get closer to the goal. Keep sharing the campaign. Keep telling people. Every backer from here brings us closer. The campaign is still live We still have time left and stretch goals to reach. If you have not yet shared the camp…
- Our Kickstarter is live! - 4 August 2026
Hey everyone, We are writing to you with one simple message: the Hollow Home Kickstarter campaign is live right now! The campaign runs for 20 days, ending August 24th, with a goal of $15,000. Every penny raised goes beyond the baseline - toward the extra layer of polish, the deeper content, the version of Hollow Home that we believe this story deserves. The rewards We wanted the rewards for this campaign to feel as connected to the game and to us as possible. Some of what is waiting for you on the campaign page: your name in the credits, a postcard signed by the whole Twigames team, the chance to name a cat that appears in the game, a custom graffiti design placed in the game world itself, and an “Azovstal“ bracelet, forged from the last batch of pre-war steel. Head to the campaign page to see the full breakdown of tiers and everything included. What we are asking If you believe in what…

- Devlog #2 - 30 January 2025
Hey everyone! Welcome to our second devlog. Today, we want to share more behind-the-scenes content with you. Location and Character spotlight! Introducing new character concept, Fox Fin. Their character has experienced first-hand the consequences of war. A wound to the head that's bandaged up, and military outfit, strongly suggests their involvement in the defense of their home country. Another new character is Kolia Shvets. Moving on to new locations, we would like to introduce three new places. The Basement, where players will be able to take refuge and rest in between the stress and pressure of war. Providing a safe pit stop between the chaos going on upstairs, the basement can function in many different settings. As a shelter for people, kitchen, supply and food storage, or anything else that is currently necessary. We want to show you the area we took refuge in and slept in to prot…
- Devlog #1 - 5 December 2024
Hey everyone! Today, we want to share a new location with you and its new inhabitant. Location and character spotlight! Today, we want to give you a sneak-peek of a new location that you'll be able to find within the Hollow Home world. The church is the first out of few new locations that players will find in Hollow Home's universe. There are many different places of worship around the world, and our culture is no different. All religious places have one thing in common... a Reverend. Along with the new location concept, we would like to introduce its resident. Dressed in traditional clothes and religious precious stones, he'll reside in the building and carry out church service and attend visitors and their spiritual needs. In hard times, a little hope and uplifting spirit is what we all need. This provides a safe space for everyone to catch their breath at during the hardships they fa…
