Three biomes from Gravelight, shaped by sound.
New OST preview. 🎧

My old main character felt generic... so I rebuilt the entire design to match the game's lighting system this is the result:

A year of solo development.
From a rough idea to Gravelight

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

I kept tweaking my lighting system in first biome…

until it started looking like THIS.

New enemy in the works. 👀 Harmless from afar, absolute menace up close.

Guess the attack pattern in the comments

7 redesigns later…

This is what my altar room looked like at the beginning And this is what it looks like now

Still not perfect… but damn, i'm getting there.

They were never meant to survive this weapon.

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

What if light was the deadliest weapon in a roguelike?

I turned light into a boss-killing weapon.

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

Just spent another evening testing weapons in Gravelight and honestly… I might have gone a little too far with the power level

One swing deletes half the room, the hammer turns the floor into fireworks, and the spear just refuses to stop flying.

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

I added a cursed altar to Gravelight.

Yep, in new alrar system you can now sacrifice resources for rewards, but sometimes it goes very wrong and summons an Ancient. #indiedev

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

I added an Ogre to my game.

It looks slow… almost harmless with his cute little feet BUT.. Don't let that fool you

If you get too close — it suddenly dashes straight at you and hits like a truck

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

I should probably nerf this weapon… but I’m not going to.
Lately created monsters and I’m not even sorry.
Gravelight dev here. Demo soon! #roguelike

[thousand hrts @thousandhrts]

We didn’t expect this when we added weapon fusion…

Now players are treating even bad loot like a strategic resource instead of trash.
