- I need your Help... - 20 March 2025
Hey everyone, This year didn’t start easy for me. On February 19, my biological father passed away. We never spoke, and he was never part of my life, but his death unexpectedly turned everything upside down. Instead of an inheritance, I was left with nothing but debt—around ₽1.5 million (~$16,000). A lot of problems piled up, and because of that, I was offline for quite a while. Honestly, the only thing keeping me going right now is working on Murmurs of Fear. That’s why, for the first time ever, I’m asking for help. If you’d like to support me, please add the game to your wishlist. It really makes a huge difference: 👉 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3129900/Murmurs_of_Fear__A_whisper_of_loneliness/ I’ve updated the game page with fresh screenshots, and I’ll be working on a trailer soon. If any of you are involved in game development, marketing, or know influencers who could help sp…
