Over the past two weeks, I’ve been polishing the demo for my main game while also continuing work on my card game. And today, my project officially passed Steam moderation — which means I’m now confirmed to take part in the June 2026 Steam Next Fest🎉 #gamedev#indiegame
I want to share the album I listened to the most this week. It’s an old favorite of mine — “Zvezdopad” by Grazhdanskaya Oborona. I’ve been listening to it for over ten years, but this time it revealed itself in a completely new way: https://t.co/K5AVwwUm56
See you next week.
This May Saturday, I felt a strong urge to sit down and write about the work I’ve done this week. I dedicated the entire week to my second game — Aces Up Magic. I added background music, fixed bugs, and, most importantly, implemented two animations🧵

The second is a defeat animation. When you lose, the cards simply collapse and fall flat. To me, both animations are still missing something — sound. I tried several options, but none of them felt right🔽
This week, I can’t stop listening to “Elegy” by Leonid Fedorov, set to the poetry of Vvedensky. It’s a captivating, mesmerizing piece of music that seems to wrap around you with a kind of quiet magic. Highly recommend giving it a listen:

In my second game, Aces Up, I updated the UI. What’s left now is optimizing it for different devices, adding background music, and introducing more visual variety with different backgrounds.
For example, in the track “Прощание со степью,” it feels more like a shamanic ritual, where the author moves through the entire history of the steppe, trying to do something with it—but there’s nothing left to be done. Even without understanding Russian.
