Testei e arrumei uns últimos bugs na demo do #KatFS hoje. Tá acabando a lista de tarefas pra demo ficar pronta, já tenho que pensar na parte de subir pra Steam 😱

@kaliagame.comOct 8, 2026, 8:06 PM

#KatFS needed a theme for the main menu to set the tone of the adventure, and @diamonddidi.bsky.social did not disappoint yet again! 🧡

Here's a little preview of how the entrance to the game will look and sound:

New and improved footstep SFX for Kalia! Because if 90% of the game is gonna be her moving around, might as well make it sound good 😈

Material-based SFX with variants for running and walking 🔥

Dando uma otimizada na compressão de áudio e vídeo da demo do #KatFS, tamanho total caiu de 1.8GB pra 1.2GB, gostoso demais 🔥

Bem contente com o resultado, mas quero ver se dá pra baixar pra 1GB sem afetar a qualidade

O 7zip compacta pra 86MB, em tese seria um download minúsculo 😬

@kaliagame.comOct 6, 2026, 8:57 PM

My favorite SFX sequence in #KatFS thus far - shame that it only fully plays if you fail to interrupt the Sentinel's special attack! 😅

Oh well, at least I can share the new Game Over sound effect as well! 😈

The #KatFS Official Soundtrack playlist is taking shape on Youtube 🔥

Love to see it 🥹

HELLO AGAIN

Once more, I come to you bearing a new battle theme for Kalia and the Fire Staff (@kaliagame.com)! Really trying to clear out my backlog of unfinished tracks for the upcoming demo

Have a listen~! ^^

Oh yeah did you know this amazing bit of soundtrack Diantha composed comes with a game? 😈

One of the tracks you'll be listening to in the game while you fight your way through the Texkali Facility 🔥

#KatFS #indiegame #indiedev #music

@kaliagame.comSep 30, 2026, 11:16 PM

And #devlog time! Lots of new sound effects and an amazing piece of the #KatFS soundtrack in this one! 🤘

I also write about Kalia's Journal, the collectible treasures and the Trial Chambers gamemode. 🔥

Read it on itch:

HELLO HELLO HELLO!

One of the battle themes I composed for @kaliagame.com is now up on my channel~! Check it out!

#KatFS features treasures as optional collectibles, which can provide some insight into the world Kalia resides in.

The plan is to eventually feature unique sprites for each, but for the first release of the Steam Demo only the flavor text will be featured.

#indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Old Sealed Beer Bottle - A dusty sealed bottle of Catherine Beer, found in an old abandoned water mill. Was probably snuck in by the mill's workers and left after the end of operations. Probably not a good idea to drink it.Imperial Flintlock Pistol - This handgun you found among the remains of the expedition does not look like anything you've ever seen before in Crater Valley. It appears worn-out from recent use. You can still smell the burnt gunpowder, and it seems to have smidges of blood. Unfortunately, it is in far too much disrepair to fire. Your dreams of becoming a gunslinger will have to wait.Energy Dampening Ring - A metal ring with a liquid crystal filling on its inner side, similar to the ones you have witnessed all over the Facility but at a smaller scale, enough to be carried. It's just a guess, but these rings seem to be always present whenever powered crystals are involved as a way to contain and redirect their power where it is needed. Far too heavy to use as a hula-hoop.Fire Staff Orb Mold - This spherical mold matches exactly the orb at the top of the Fire Staff, which leads you to believe it was used in its crafting process. While you can't make much sense of the symbols etched on the side of the mold, they seem to indicate that it is intended for use with molten magma crystal. Perhaps the same crystals that power the Facility also make up the Fire Staff?

Quase duas horas pesquisando objetos do século XIX da minha região pra eventualmente decidir que o primeiro colecionável do #KatFS será uma garrafa velha de cerveja

(Ainda fechada, obviamente 🔥)

@kaliagame.comSep 26, 2026, 6:32 PM

Wanted to finish this for the #ScreenshotSaturday

Reworked how the goblin mage's magical shields look and operate. Not only will their elemental shields block damage, but they'll also apply their respective status effect if you get too close! 🧊

Capping of the Kalia journal UI with some satisfying book handling SFX 🔊(courtesy of the FilmCow audio pack I've been using)

Navigating through Kalia's diary, the treasure compendium and the in-game guide should feel like flicking the pages of Kalia's own journal 😁

#KatFS #indiegame #indiedev #sfx

@kaliagame.comSep 22, 2026, 9:18 PM

Fiz os desenhinhos pro diário da Kalia hoje, achei que ficaram bem bonitinhos até 😁

As páginas serão preenchidas conforme o jogador avança nas fases e contam a história da perspectiva da Kalia. Essas são só as duas primeiras, a demo terá seis ao todo.

#KatFS

Arte de interface do diário da Kalia, com desenhos representando a cabana da Kalia e sua floresta, a Kalia chateada com os zumbis, encontrando a caverna, objetos da expedição da caverna e anotações sobre os ícones de objetos inflamáveis e explosivos.

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday! Last week I've touched up the challenge mode of #KatFS for the demo and felt like showcasing it 😈

It's meant to be a side mode to the main campaign focused on combat encounters. It'll also tease some of the enemies coming in the full game! 🔥

#indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

@kaliagame.comSep 16, 2026, 8:24 PM

A little teaser at the end of the upcoming #KatFS towards the following chapter, the Crystal Mines. The demo will end right before the chapter would load. Feels good to finally update the assets from back in the pre-alpha days... 💎🔥

The in-game guide in #KatFS has been upgraded with brief pop-up notifications for newly unlocked entries. Pressing the Journal button takes you directly to the new entry, but the pop-up will also fade naturally. ⚠️

(Also casually showing off the Fire Staff cutscene! 😈)

#indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

@kaliagame.comSep 14, 2026, 8:35 PM

Set up the triggers for the #KatFS in-game guide entries today. Some are location-based, while others are more dynamic (such as the NPC entries unlocking when you first engage with the NPC) 🔥

Still looking to improve the notification and navigation for new entries 👀

#indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

@kaliagame.comSep 11, 2026, 7:52 PM

Tidying up the in-game guide feature for #KatFS with both the entries and their respective illustrations.

The intention of the guide is to provide an optional way to learn the game's mechanics and systems more directly 🔥

(Plus, expect some lore tidbits! 😈)

#indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Mechanics of Fire - When struck with Fire damage, flammable objects and enemies will become heated. Additional fire damage will further add to the heat, until it combusts. Once a fire is ignited, it will generate heat that can spread to nearby objects and spread the flames. Eventually, objects and foes will burn out. Some may get destroyed in the process, while others may still remain intact but fragile. Learning how to wield flames is crucial for Kalia to survive!Upgrade Crystals - These highly valuable crystals can be found in special chests, indicated by their glow: Red for Health, and blue for Mana. Opening one of these chests will reveal a crystal of the respective type, which will permanently upgrade Kalia's maximum Health or Mana. Upgrade Crystal chests are not always easy to find, but going after them can prove valuable in the long term.Treasure Chests - Treasure chests are hidden all over the underworld, often containing valuable potions and other items that can aid Kalia in her journey. Just walk up to them and open them up with the Interact button. Wooden chests can be also broken open, while metal chests are indestructible. Chests may also be locked with a sigil, requiring the solving of a puzzle or clearing of a combat encounter to be unlocked. Stone chests are even rarer and more valuable, containing Upgrade Crystals or actual Treasures.Dodging - Pressing the Dodge button enables Kalia to quickly escape dangers with a swift roll. The dodge will either follow the direction of her movement or the aim crosshair (which is prioritized can be changed in the game's settings). While dodging, Kalia is impervious to most (but not all) sources of damage.
