Hello again, friends! This is going to be a really quick one as we are feverishly crafting Deathwish Bloom trailer animation ahead of our Steam page going live around the 10th of March.
February 2026 blessed us with the first ever public Playtest at Render festival in Belfast. The festival itself is exquisite and not to be missed if you are into games, animation and the latest media technologies.
Thanking everyone who dedicated 25 minutes of their life to living in our MC’s (Main Character) head by playing the Prototype. Thank you for giving valuable feedback and hyping us up. We can’t want for you to meet the rest of the cast, which will happen later this year.
As planned, the playable Prototype is now available on Steam via private playtest. It’s been quite a process - to learn and create all the necessary bits that would allow Deathwish Bloom Playtest to end up in your Steam Library and look as intended. We can’t wait for you to see the result! 💅
Currently, the future looks like this:
Once the Deathwish Bloom Steam page goes live ~ the 10th of March 2026, the Playtest version (aka the Prototype) will be available to the general public via sign-up. We’ll continue updating the Playtest over the next few months as we shape it up into the Demo.
Once the Playtest looks as the intended Demo and our core players are happy, we’ll officially launch it at the Steam Next Fest. There are two Steam Next Fests this year: in June and in October. Time will tell which one it’s going to be. This mainly depends on whether we’ll take on service work to support the game development further.
On this note, here is a wee snapshot from the upcoming trailer!
May your March be glorious ☀️
See you agian next month! 🌸🪤 🐁 🌸
