I don't know if it's just slow word of mouth, but our Quartet sales have been much stronger the last few weeks. Thanks for all your support! We are still hard at work on the newest 1.3 content update and console ports.

My self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” is going well? (At least I think it is.) Today’s game is Geo Mythica. #steam #GeoMythica

Rosewater, my Wild West adventure game, has been out nearly 4 months and has been very well-received! But I also feel like it’s reached a fraction of its potential audience. If you can spare a repost and help spread the word, it would be greatly appreciated! www.grundislav.games/Rosewater.html

Hey look, Geo Mythica got a nice feature in a video called "Outstanding Indie Games You've Never Heard Of." Thought it was a fun video segment! He seemed to really appreciate the options available in the combat system and lighthearted tone of the game! #jrpg #indiedev youtu.be/4uQcji2Ud9M?...

It was a fun challenge to incorporate world music into the 8-bit soundtrack for my #RPG. For example, in the Panama Canal sequence, I made a track that combined Panamanian dance music with JRPG battle music tropes. I thought it turned out pretty well! #indiedev

It was fun coming up with locations for my globetrotting #JRPG Geo Mythica! It's always a good time learning about cool places and then representing them in 8-bit! For example, check out Drumheller, Alberta - dinosaur capital of the world - with its giant T-Rex statue!

A la FF5, my new #RPG Geo Mythica has periodic optional challenge fights that put your party-speccing abilities to the test! Here's a fight with a big skeletal flaming Caspian cobra in Turkmenistan. (The gear you get for beating it may be a tad OP, actually...) #pixelart

About halfway through my new #RPG, Geo Mythica, I pit you against a cobra in Turkmenistan - well, optionally. I love a big optional boss fight that really tests all the mechanics you've learned up to that point! #indiedev
