Our programmer Valeria detected a very strange bug in our game today! I really have no idea why this knife shrinks when you pick it up several times. 🫠 But, well, that's obviously a feature! #funnybug #bug #indiegame #gamedev

While my teammates had some days off, I used the time to experiment with our art style. I tried painting normal maps to get a more clay-like texture with visible brushstrokes. I really like the look, but refining all the details will be a lot of work… Yay or nay? #indiegame #artstyle #gameart

This weekly deals with the not-so-cool fact that we have to step on the development brakes for a while until we manage to secure more funds for our game... Speaking of not so cool, we're happy we even managed to put out a weekly in this godforsaken heat 🥵 #gamedev #indiegame

Since Annika was out last week spending her time baking her own wedding cakes and stressing out, Vanessa took over so you won't have to miss our weekly video! #indiegame #gamedev #devlog #wedding #ramen

Your favourite peas made their way to Berlin last week to bid farewell to their startup funding program 💚 It was a bittersweet day filled with great weather, amazing people, yummy food, and deep house remixes of the Gummibärenbande theme song! #gamedev #indiegame

In this weekly, we reveal our new key artwork, Annika learns what view bobbing is and uses SpongeBob memes to cope with the fact that there's yet another production plan in her life waiting to be set up diligently and then getting completely torpedoed by life. How are you all? 💚 #gamedev #indiegame

On Friday, we received around 150 new wishlists all at once and were so happy when we realized it was mostly from Japan and Korea! 🥰 If you have any idea if there was some sort of event or shout-out, let us know please 😅 We wish you a happy new week and hope to see you soon! #gamedev #indiegame

Hi! Our game is not released yet, so it is currently not possible to play it. When we release, we would certainly be very happy for streamers and content creators to play it and use it for content!

I feel you!! I was hoping things would get better once spring came, but... well, I'm still waiting 🙈

I know, I'm starting to sound like a broken record with all this "talking about our future" stuff, but that's our honest reality at the moment! We're making steady progress with planning and scheming, but there's still a lot to discuss and decide 🤯 How are you feeling atm? #gamedev #indiegame

This week's vlog features art style experiments, emotional throwbacks and... trains for some reason? We're admittedly a bit all over the place at the moment, but this kind of amazing variety content is what you follow us for, right? We wish you a great week ahead and all the best 💚 #gamedev

From just some simple brush strokes to an elaborate and appetizing teaser trailer! 🍜 It's especially amazing how seemingly small visual or sound effects really make a world of difference in the end. How did you like this little comparison series? #gamedev #indiegame

Soup for Soul | Peas & Quiet Games @peas-and-quiet.com · 10/05/2026

It was an exhilarating week, that's for sure! Quite the emotional rollercoaster... 🎢 Now we'll lick our wounds for a bit and then it's on to plan B! 🙂‍↕️💪 Thank you so much for rooting for us and for your crossed fingers! It didn't work out this time around, but that's #gamedev for ya! #indiegame

We got into the next round of our funding application, aaaaaahh!! 🤯 This is so scary and exciting and amazing and we're definitely NOT losing our heads over this at all 🙂‍↔️ Have a good week and see you on the other side! 🍀 #gamedev #indiegame #weeklyvlog #devdiary

It's a new week and Spring has sprung where we live 🪻 How is the weather where you are and how are you coping with hay fever and allergies? Please keep your fingers crossed for us and our funding application 🤞💚 We wish you a good start into the new week (and into May 🤯)! #gamedev #indiegame

The camera and controls overhaul is still ongoing and taking up a lot of our work time. It will definitely be worth it, though, because it's just so important for the look and feel of our game ✨ How did you spend last week? We wish you a good start into the new one 💚 #gamedev #indiegame

Nice to see how close our final teaser ended up being to the original storyboard. We scribbled every scene by hand and planned everything out in detail. Annika even recorded pre-voice-overs before we had professional voice actors. We cut it all together as a rough animatic first. #indiegame #teaser

Thinking about game controls, submission deadlines and camera perspectives really held us up last week. But every little and sometimes confusing step takes us further on our journey! 🗺️ How did your last week go? We hope you had a good time 💚 #gamedev #indiegame #devdiary #weeklyupdate

In English (and also in German), there is a saying with a very similar meaning. It says: 'The apple doesn't fall far from the tree' 🍎 Do you prefer the apple proverb or the frog one? #ことわざ #gamedev

Our weekly recap episode 26: This week we worked on concept artwork, improved gameplay interactions, and tackled funding applications & admin tasks. And we kept our fingers crossed for the stranded humpback whale "Hope". #indiegame #gamedevelopment #devlog #cookinggame

Speaking from experience, following this kotowaza is not always possible; no matter how diligent and dutiful you try to be! But it's a nice metaphor and definitely could be used in other situations as well! #ことわざ #gamedev

Hehe, way to dodge giving a definitive answer! Technically, you're correct, but we'll only award you 99 points this time 😁

Soup for Soul | Peas & Quiet Games @peas-and-quiet.com · 05/04/2026

Wow, that's correct!! 👏 (I hope it is indeed called Savoy cabbage; I'm just trusting Wikipedia here 🙈)

Soup for Soul | Peas & Quiet Games @peas-and-quiet.com · 04/04/2026

This round might not be difficult in the traditional sense, but rather because it comes down to technicalities 🤓 So it's rather 'Can you guess the variant' this time! #gamedev #indiegame

We're rooting for you, little whale friend! 🐳 Please get back to the Atlantic safely! What-- we were supposed to be working instead of keeping our eyes glued to the whale rescue live streams? Um... well, Val did a lot of cool stuff with ingredients and physics! 🥕 #gamedev #indiegame #devdiary

This is (supposed to be) a tough one! Can you guess which vegetable this UV texture belongs to? Focusing on the color can really help you here! ...or lead you astray 😈 #gamedev #indiegame #quiz

That certainly was a week! In between Teams calls and funding submission documents, of all things, YouTube had to stab us in the back... 🔪 Please help us fight the weird algorithms and take a look at our teaser trailer, that would be amazing! Thank you 💚 #gamedev #indiegame

Hmmm, it IS quite close in appearance, but personally, I wouldn't take a raw bite out of this one! 🧅
