Below we have mock-up default poses for our main characters. I also changed up some clothing design. Runa's changes are the most exciting for me … Continue reading sofia – art stuff #3
sofia – the pitch
About two weeks ago I went to my first family party in a year and talked with a cousin whom I haven't seen in four. The usual talks ensue: How are you? What've you been up to? How are your plans for the future? etc etc. I mentioned how I've been working on this little … Continue reading sofia – the pitch

Hey everyone! It's been a long while since the last update, and while I can fault that to life things going on, the plain truth is I could've delivered some small updates every now and then. Everyone has their own lives to manage, but I'm especially awful at maintaining correspondence under stress. Communication has always … Continue reading sofia – July News Update + Current Situation

Pleased to Meetcha! + a bit of history
This is our first week recording the development of SOFIA. I started brainstorming the game about a month after Doki Doki Literature Club's release (DDLC) in 2017. Something about a visual novel breaking into the mainstream stirred something within me, even more so in the Western sphere of media. I looked into the creator's interviews … Continue reading Pleased to Meetcha! + a bit of history
