It’s #MotivationMonday and our journal just got a colorful upgrade! Each clue you collect now pops up as a little sticky note, giving it so much personality!

(Oh, and... Ignore the duplicate object bug… it’s just twice as excited 😅)

Some stories aren’t about saving the world... they’re about saving yourself. Haifa is a gentle hidden-object story about healing, friendship, and finding light when it’s hardest to see.

It’s always satisfying to see how far things have come...
What started as a few colored shards in a test scene became something we're extremely proud of!

Working on this new scene this week. Plot? Puzzles? Dialogues? Nah.
The REAL question is: WHERE DO THE SEAGULLS GO?!

So what do you say: beach or beach hut rooftops?

A few days ago, this dialogue was just a work in progress. Today it’s finished and in the game. Mondays are good reminders that progress doesn’t have to be huge to matter.

What’s something you've moved forward lately?

Just Tanya’s thoughts, rambling.
Guess some mysteries chill you to the bone. Literally.❄️

No colors yet, just lines. Characters from Haifa slowly taking form. I love this stage before things get polished.

This weekly polish✨: Objects don’t just pop anymore, they open up with an animation. Simple, but it feels nicer.

Do you agree?

Debug logs are cool, but have you tried personalized "stop being a problem" notes from your programmer?

This #ScreenshotSaturday, we're showing off these two tiny rebels from completely different worlds that made their way into our new scene!
We call them moral support.💙☠️

Do you recognise these two?

We heard you! Demo players missed the broken pizza stone under the glass, so we turned it into a full puzzle.
Now you rebuild the stone, and the moment lands much stronger.

Thank you all for the feedback, we’re loving this new flow! 🙌

Meet Zaki: headstrong, loyal, and sometimes too quick to fight for what he believes in.
When Nerri and Tanya meet him, he’s caught in a heated argument, blamed once more.

Have you already met him in the demo?

Me a two days after #SteamNextFest started:
"Oh no... What if no one plays my demo at all?!"
Also me: "Wait, what if someone actually plays my demo??"

After finally finishing the demo (and nearly overdosing on energy drinks), this #ScreenshotSaturday, we’re back to creating more scenes for Haifa.

Here’s a sneak peek at a brand-new scene waiting to be discovered.
