Harmony Frontiers

Our point-and-click visual novel, State of Presence, is now available to wishlist on Steam and follow on Itch.io! 🥳

Waking up in a stranger's apartment is a jarring experience, even worse is learning you're there because you died. Phase between memories, the liminal plane, and current day to uncover your demise. Both the dead and living can help you on this journey. Will you play it safe or take risks?

You can find more details about the project at the links below! 👀

@drawnbymabel did a wonderful job incorporating elements of the existing styles in our game with her own.

Pictured is a moment where Kacper appears to be adjusting to his new (after)life. Will you be joining him?

Psyche Game Jam is back for another year!

This event opens from the beginning of April up until the end of May. To enter, prepare to release a narrative-based game with mental health representation during the set time period!

For 2025, we're adding an optional theme to the jam: "shooting for the stars!" Does it give you any ideas?

When designing relatives of our characters, it's fun to consider where the similarities and differences will lie.

There's more to State of Presence than who you personally meet!

You may not have seen her in the main cast, but this woman appears throughout almost all of Kacper's family photos. Who do you think she is? 👀

Even Marcel can get a little sentimental! Looking through his shelves, you'll see he keeps a certain friend in mind…

The mementos a person chooses to keep around can say a lot about them. Here are the portraits Kacper's held onto!
