- Fishing for Bugs - 31 August 2026
Hey there, travelers! Work's still going on some minor but important game improvements. A fresh patch dropped today, and here’s what got fixed: • Added a slider for character voice volume; • Fixed those interaction spots that wouldn’t show up under certain conditions when you hit Tab (Stopping with Fjel, Asterop’s house); • Fixed mismatched names and voice lines in dialogues; • Removed puzzle-piece graphic glitch some players got after the trial; • Fixed a bug where players accidentally triggered the same Asterop dialogue twice and locked themselves out of the other one; …plus a bunch of other small stuff, like dialogue typos and some optimization tweaks. The more people play and give feedback, the easier it is to catch these little bugs and iron them out. PC specs, screen resolution, and all kinds of random factors can play into it. And your input always means a lot to a solo dev. Than…

- Provoron is here! - 17 August 2026
Hey there, travelers!So, today I’ve finally got the news you’ve all been waiting for — Provoron is officially releasing!After all these years, all the people I’ve met along the way, all the tough calls... the game is finally becoming something separate from me. I can’t change anything major in it anymore. And honestly? I don’t even feel like I need to.Is Provoron perfect now? Not at all. It’s got plenty of flaws — and plenty of good stuff too. And I really, really want to fall in love with it. Not so much for the things it usually gets praised for, but more for its rough edges — because they didn’t just show up for no reason. They mean a lot to me, because they’re the result of the choices that actually got this game out the door. For me, loving this game is kind of like loving and accepting myself as just some regular person who doesn’t nail everything on the first try.It’s not perfect…

Hello friends!Let me introduce you to Ankou – a white crow chick with a big, yet complicated heart. His world has been overrun by red devilkins! They’re everywhere: scurrying in minds, breaking things, turning crows angry and miserable. Ankou sees them clearly and burns with desire to save everyone from this unseen menace. He’s sure he just needs loyal allies and the right way to rid the world of this red plague!On his journey, Ankou will meet all sorts of characters: crows, cats, dogs, rats, and even one particularly nasty cockroach.

Hi everyone! Today I want to announce a big event: the start of applications for the Provoron playtest! This is an important step, as I've spent the last 7 years developing the story and working directly on creating this game — a requiem for childhood. Now, development is finally approaching its final stage. At the same time, I'm excited to open playtest sign-ups for you all, which will help me understand what's been done well in the game, and where some improvements are needed.

- Do you know ProVoron? - 28 August 2024
Have you ever woken up thinking that something is obviously wrong. Things are out of place, or your old friends and acquaintances are behaving very strangely. And everyone seems to be okay with it. But for some reason you feel uncomfortable and even a little sad. And Anku knows what it is. It's the demons.. or imps. You can call them whatever you want. Yes, they're everywhere! In the crevices of houses, hiding in the leaves, swarming in the heads, and every now and then they get naughty. They make scary noises, steal keys or just sit on our heads, which makes them heavy and we get tired faster. You can't see them? Try closing your eyes. Now listen. Do you hear that faint rustle of little feet? There they are. Anku sees them with open eyes. And if close them, they disappear immediately. As someone say, if I don't see a problem, there's no problem. You do that a lot, don't you? You just c…
