I added more destructible elements this weekend :3
(after spending most of my time optimizing my custom lighting system and cable simulations that were slowing down performance so much)

Woke up early today because I was frustrated yesterday night with the handling in tighter and more technical turns,

So I improved the controls to manage those parts WAY BETTER

Even made a little before/after video explaining the changes in beaviour:

game: knowing the risks, do you want to stall or do you try to end the encounters as quickly as possible? Knowing your strengths and how you tend to act, how much health are you willing to sacrifice to get new powers, and which ones will you favour?

Sneak peak at early game combat!
With the addition of the blood drying mechanic, you will now have a limited time to concentrate the blood splatters into orbs that can be used for healing (or other powers later). This will feed into the sacrifice and risk-reward core aspect of the

Hi everyone, long time no see.
The global video game economy was bad in 2024, and it got worse in 2025. We had hoped that it wouldn't affect us, but it did. 2025 has been a rough year for us.
Seed by Seed is experiencing significant financial difficulties, and we have to pause our creative activities. We're not closing the studio, but we had to let go most of our employees (understand: we fired ourselves) and we'll now focus on contract work to stabilize our company. Seed by Seed still exists with a few persons that will maintain our games as much as they possibly can. Nevertheless, Baladins will soon be released on consoles, and more is to come for Jump the Track.
The Seed by Seed team sends lots of love to everyone who has helped us on our creative journey so far. You can support us by buying and playing our games, spreading the word, and leaving good reviews on Steam. All efforts will help us return to creating our own weird adventures.

Hi there, game industry and friends,
This is our turn to do the "square news bad news" thing. Sadly, our studio has been affected by the crisis like everyone else. You can ask questions in thread, we'll try our best to answer.

Cheers & take care ❀️

the anime sfx-making tool!
It's called ANIMEVOX, in big letters up top.
Then there's the controls:

In vertical pairs:
Left:
Pitch Rise
Rise speed

Reverb
Room size

On the right:
Wobble Speed
Wobble Amount

Tone Brightness
Volume

Next is a row of keys:
Randomize - randomizes the sound parameters
UNDO/ REDO - go back to parameters you liked
Export Wav - self explanatory, it saves a copy of the latest sound to your hard drive.

Then the fun buttons, with cute art styles:

IMPACT, sparkle, beam, powerUP, PON, BOOM, slash, woosh

Each produces a preset sound, which then goes through the fx chain.

Hope you enjoy it!

I made a tool that makes retro anime sound effects. Meet AnimeVox!
I made it for a game, but it's free to use.

I'm using the forgotten (but popular in 80s japan) Schroeder reverb algo, and some wobble.

If you find it useful consider supporting me on itch :)

Maybe it's still too shy in the mix but there is clothes sounds to enhance the slide, but it's not a very strong woosh either (don't want the jump & slide to be too much attention grabbing as they will be used nearly as much as basic footsteps). Maybe i will make it a bit stronger tho, will see!

Thank you β™₯️ i'm a bit sad because i turn 30yo in 2 months and it was the release window i've originally planned for when I started the game 3.5 years ago, and I'm nowhere close to release. But when I'm watching everything i'm done so far I'm very proud of where I am now and the quality i've reach

The revised sound design of Vindica!
What do you think?
Still a lot of work to do, but I like it way more than the previous one. Also I developed new audio systems for dynamic music layers, localized ambient sounds (saws/conveyor belts), and screen-space sound spatialization!

I had forgotten I announced it as early as that πŸ’€
I've postponed it for a lot of reasons one after another, but mostly because I didn't liked the sounds and was afraid to ruin the first impression with it :(
I've restarted the sound design from scratch, i still struggle quite a bit but it's better!

This was another unused experiment from our winter update. It didn't quite fit into the art style of the rest of the game.
