'Tis the season, so may as well remind y'all that #Blutkapelle is, indeed, a Halloween game! It's got a vampire witch as the main character, pumpkins, candy, hippie ghosts, dog demons, cheesy blood effects, neon on black, gothic environments, horror references, the lots...

Been really surprised with the reception the #Blutkapelle #SAGE2026 demo has been getting thus far! I am currently taking notes based on how streamers play the game and some other feedback I'm getting though, to improve the game further in the future. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Just a day away from #SAGE2026, so for last and certainly least here's Kalisto! An easily scared and somewhat awkward, yet reserved guy often driven mad over his younger sister's antics, who he has to watch over constantly to make sure she get in trouble. #Blutkapelle #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
A character profile image from Blutkapelle, which reads:

The older and more staid of the Zumbado siblings. Unlike his younger sister, he is rather cautious and pragmatic, trying to avoid getting into trouble as much as possible. He often has to watch over Melibea, as they are home alone or not accompanied by an adult a lot of the time, although she always finds a way to wander off and cause chaos, leaving Kalisto in a panic to find her.

He is also somewhat easily frightened, which causes more trouble for him when having to keep an eye on his sister while exploring less hospitable areas of the islands, which she really likes to do.

#SAGE2026 is near upon us, so here's Melibea! A quirky little girl who wound up trapped inside the hotel along with her older brother. She always walks into dangerous situations, yet miraculously never ends up in trouble. #Blutkapelle #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
A character profile image from Blutkapelle, which reads:

Melibea Zumbado Cortizo

The younger and more eccentric of the Zumbado siblings. Melibea is a small child with few friends, although not for a lack of trying. Her eccentric tendencies simply tend to turn many people away from her. Melibea is also very energetic to a fault, being able to stay up late into the night, and having difficulty sleeping as a result.

She has a tendency to wander off on her own, while her family aren’t looking, giving them great trouble when trying to find her although, miraculously, has never been involved in any accident in any of these instances.

More from the lead-up to #SAGE2026 now comes Linzner! Zöl's plush cat turned alive through electricity and "borrowed" organs. This sleazy purple feline sees himself as a true casanova, picking on any woman his plastic eyes catch, which never goes his way. #Blutkapelle #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
A character profile image from Blutkapelle, which reads:

Once just a regular, albeit large inanimate, custom made stuffed toy, he was granted life by his owner, Zölestine, for better or worse, using the brain and tongue of a dead man she found in the trash next to a seedy bar and electricity as a power source.

He is extremely self-centred, highly condescending and even more lustful, picking up on any woman he deems attractive, always with the expected results. All of this despite also being a huge loser and completely useless at everything he tries to do. These are traits that came from the dead man his brain and tongue came from, which also gave him his posh British accent.

Continuing the lead-up to #SAGE2026, here's Alegría! The goofy ghost gal who protects Zölestine from any damage when broken out of the various "recreational filtration devices" scattered across the hotel that she is trapped on! #Blutkapelle #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
A character profile image from Blutkapelle, which reads:

Alma “Alegría” Rihuana Fumero

A rather dim-witted but lovable hippie demon dog who died after a few too many puffs and lines. She is Zölestine’s aunt, and one of the few people she likes, despite her “quirks”. In life, she was a guitar player who found some local success in Hell, playing for a band she can’t remember the name of after too many drugs fried her brain.

When the hotel was built and after Zöl was cursed, Alegría was locked inside her own bongs, which were then left abandoned across each location. Freeing her and then levelling her up with the power balls that come out of them will start to morph her back into a demon dog, losing her ghostly coloration for the orange fur the demons have.

Every few days leading up to #SAGE2026 I'll be posting a bio for one of the main 5 characters from #Blutkapelle! Here's Zölestine, the resurrected young witch you play as in this game! She may be aloof but that doesn't mean she can't get the job done when locking in! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
A character profile image from Blutkapelle, which reads:

Zölestine “Zöl” Adelinde Grünberg

A mysterious young vampire witch who, for unknown reasons, was trapped inside the Hotel Blutkapelle and put in a curse that left her in a coma-like state for an indefinite amount of time until Kalisto and Melibea found her and broke the curse.

She is very aloof, not one for small talk, and often keeps to herself, having no real friends. Prior to her curse, she would spend most of her time fiddling with filming and animation techniques at her bedroom, where she had miniatures, puppets, drawings, projectors, cameras and more lying around. She has a fascination for the macabre and classic horror movies, which she had a whole collection of that she has lost after being cursed.

tried to get as close as i could to official art here, not like that's super difficult since its fairly loose and proportions are never consistent the eyes and the hair could be a bit bigger and the mask sharper and more angular that aside i think its fairly accurate #ratattack #scratchcats #art
Simple fanart of Muffy DuPont from Rat Attack standing, with official art used as reference on the left and right.Same Muffy art but without the references.Ditto, but rendered at x10 resolution.

In Blutkapelle, one of Zölestine's idle animations has her pull out a newspaper and read it out loud, showing 1 of 3 possible pieces of dialogue. Each level (and the hub world) has it's own set of newspaper dialogue. #Blutkapelle #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #SAGE2026
Screenshot of Blutkapelle where Zölestine is reading a newspaper, bringing up the following dialogue:

"WITCH GAME INSULT TO OUR WAR DEAD"

Vat? Did zey not like mein darts board?Screenshot of Blutkapelle where Zölestine is reading a newspaper, bringing up the following dialogue:

"Über Bull Threatens Filming a Blutkapelle Movie"

Zamn, he must be completely broke (or mass black-listed) if he has to stoop zis low and only be able to afford a license to zis shitty game.Screenshot of Blutkapelle where Zölestine is reading a newspaper, bringing up the following dialogue:

"Flying Kite with Face Threatens to Sell Me Ball-Hair Trimmer"

i hate this trend of reviving long dead and niche franchises with misguided / subpar games and then holding them hostage over said game's success to guilt trip fans into buying them even if they don't like it just to "support the series" I haven't seen this ever lead to more games in the series too

"WITCH GAME INSULT TO OUR WAR DEAD"
Vat? Did zey not like mein darts board?

Behind her is a picture of Adolf Hitler with a bullseye / target painted on and two giant darts on his eye and moustache respectively. Melibea is also standing there next to Zöl.A screenshot of another room in the same level, much smaller and claustrophobic, with some headstones and wooden crosses on the floor, and a torch and chandelier on the wall and ceiling. Zöl is partly obscured by darkness. There's a red key at the end of the room.

Working on the game's hub world now, and its pretty much almost completely done by this point lol, at least what will be featured in the demo #Blutkapelle #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Zölestine in front of the Bowling Por Ciento level entrance, which is made out of two giant bowling pins and a bowling ball in between them. There's a glowing portal in the middle of the entrance.

On the right side there's a pillar that tallies the player's progress in that level, with their rank, high score, collectables and achievements.Ditto, but showing the entrance to the Movie Theatre, which isn't a level but a menu to watch the film reels you collect in the levels. The entrance has open curtains and fences on the sides.
