But heres the thing. It just came out on switch and it still doesn’t have credits. It’s been out of early access for over a year and playable on steam for even longer and still no credits anywhere (unless you backed the game on kickstarter yay).
And this sucks!! It sucks to have this really nasty feelings about this game. It sucks to be suspicious about WHY there arent credits. It sucks to see the developers looking to hire more and more people and I’m sitting here thinking “are these potential hires okay with never being credited for their work?”
And this isn’t just about me and my work. I’ve mostly moved on from this. But there have been *tons* of people who worked on sun haven despite what they might try to pass off in their discord. I’ve spoken with a lot of people who worked on the project. Theres a lot of amazing skill that went into this game and it’s just sitting there. Who made this game? Well pixel sprout studios! Who works for pixel sprout studios? Good question.
Without saying a word, Bartlomiej knelt down on one knee, grabbed the man-whore’s hand - god, it was so much smaller than his own - and pressed a gold coin into his palm, closing the man’s pale fingers around it. He held onto him, warming cold skin between his hands.

Lil excerpt of the illustrated ✨old man yaoi✨ novelette I am writing.
It has everything: Eastern European sadness! Discovering your bisexuality in your late 40s! Prostitution! Class consciousness! And ofc raunchy sex scenes ✨✨✨
Part I should drop on doddster.itch.io for free by the end of the year, so keep an eye out!

i need people to understand that fundamentally when I say I want to watch something I mean that i will probably not watch that within the next 6 months but I think about it often
Been a bit longer than initially intended to update but I wanted to have something to show for the next time I came on here.
First of all, super cool news:
A Programmer and a Composer joined my humble little project! I’m super stocked to have them freelance for me, it gives me a lot more space to work on assets, story and marketing.
The past two months we’ve been working on getting the first rough build together. On the surface the gameplay is not very complicated, so we already have the basic VN mechanics and the early top down gathering mechanics in place.
I’ve been working on the first in game art assets, The Blacksmith’s portrait is fully animated at this point, plus the Knight is in progress. I also finished some of the early scene and Backgrounds illustrations plus some UI, so it’s actually starting to look like a game, it’s super exciting (and unnerving!)
Still a long way to go but with every little asset and mechanic done, it’s looking a lil more achievable than before!
The Road ahead is currently focused on finishing all assets for Day 1 and starting to put together a teaser trailer to get some eyes on the game. A custom score for the trailer is in the works too!
If all goes well, The Kind Blacksmith will have a steampage and a trailer ready by February (and if we get super ambitious and lucky, maybe even a playable demo)
I’ll keep you all updated and thank you so much for following my little passion project!
