Set their emotions on fire! Thinking about where best to place the cards is important, as you can affect the emotions of your conversation opponent. For better or for worse. #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

Will you betray the Ecoterrorists’ secrets to the State in order to gain advantage with the powerful political class? Side with the Fisherpeople over the Port Workers? Or even go against your own moral code to gain favour with the Washerwomen’s Union? #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

Each of the characters the player will meet in Muziris belongs to a faction – and gossip in Muziris spreads fast, so our actions in one mission could affect our reputation with people elsewhere. Balancing the needs and interests of quarreling factions will not be easy. #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

Now, this looks exciting! So many missions, so little time. With your team, you can get some good coverage, but you’ll still need to choose your missions wisely and decide which to invest the team’s time in. Keep in mind your team’s strengths too! #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

The moment you can organize your hand based on the many possibilities a given conversation offers is really cool. Will you go for facts and reason? Or play on someone's soft spot? Maybe make yourself small and unassuming?

In All Will Rise, while building your deck you will need to choose your cards wisely. What conversation topics should you be bringing up? How can you tap into their heart, or stimulate their brain? How can you win the battle? #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

All Will Rise Audio Designer, @nehapolitan.bsky.social, shares our sentiment that billionaires are not to be revered. Despite what the media tries to make people aspire to, having infinite money is hoarding of the highest order. Share the wealth! #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev
I grew up in a community where the 'Ambanis' where seen as this incredible and inspirational family. And I was taught that they were generous and fair.
Working on this game has made me realize that no billionaire is ever
'generous', 'fair' or
'inspirational!!'

When the justice system doesn’t acknowledge the weight of a crime, it is an injustice for all. Billionaires and corporations being fined pocket change allows them to continue committing outrageous crimes. Let’s put a stop to it. #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieGame

Love this new flow that shows that playing cards change the vibe for both people in the conversation, impacting them differently based on where they're at.

Our Art Director, @pormaro.bsky.social, shares her thoughts on the relatable elements of All Will Rise. With so many personalities in the game, there’s no doubt you’ve met someone just like our characters. #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieGame
I think art imitates life and that's exactly what happens with our game, we can all be like Kuyili at times, we all know a personality like Shabeer and we most certainly have all dealt with an oblivious privileged person like Rishabh.

The sacred grove. Where people meet to feel a part of something more. To feel their energy unified. To feel like they can do something about their circumstances. Just to feel. What will Kuyili feel while she’s there? #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev
There are fires lit in the sacred grove. My nostrils fill: weed-smoke, fermented alcohol, scented flowers left out too long. Over there, a pile of coals glowing red, awaiting a show of abandoned devotion.
Minds: People slither out from the shadows.
Hearts: The crowd cries out in welcome.
Guts: I feel unsettled, anticipatory.

The river of Muziris has been killed. Kuyili and her team decide to do something about it. Make the case for her in court, defend her rights, and, please, bring her justice. #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev
