  So... I have been fancying over the idea of releasing ver. 0.2.6 within the end of this year. That was, uh... well, a few months ago. I now have to face the simple truth, I'm not going to make it. It'... Continue reading

  Next update's script is (sort of) finalized. That meaning, I'm still likely going to change a few things here and there before it gets released, and there are a few other lines that will eventually fi... Continue reading

  Finally managed to restart my PC. My SSD broke down on last Saturday. That means I basically lost all the progress I had made so far in the development of the next update to chapter 2. Looks like I le... Continue reading

  Here we go!!! REC/REW, ver. 0.2.4! Now hitting the 150k words limit (actually breaking that barrier, LibreOffice says I'm some 100 words above 152k!) and a couple new ways our hero can die - both by t... Continue reading

  Weeell... nothing really important this time. That's why I'm tagging this post as a mere "general" update and nothing else. First thing first: I've updated the game page on itch. I always felt it to b... Continue reading

  April 08, 2023 by JaN

  November 23, 2022 by JaN

  Just uploaded a small text file to properly credit the authors of the images and music themes I used in a brief (and likely rather silly) teaser video I made. While I wait for YT to tell me whether th... Continue reading

  November 09, 2022 by JaN

  The very first iteration of Undeground Milan, the subterranean city where REC/REW takes place, could be traced back as far as the late 2000s. At that time I had been playing a rather dissatisfying gam... Continue reading
