Discord Link Here: So far, we’ve talked about The Cel-Shaded Group and The Early Realistic Group , but now it’s time to dive into what we lovingly call The Transition Group, the era where we collectively stared at our project, shrugged, and said, “Okay… what if we tried something completely different?” All of this is mostly because half of our ideas were born from late-night scrolling and the o…
Discord Link Here : In the first episode of “How We Made Firva as an In-Game Character,” we went over the major design ideas behind Firva and explained how we organized the full journey into five main groups (you can revisit them here): 1 - The Cel-Shaded Group Our earliest complete designs, fully covered in Devlog #07. 2 - The Early Realistic Group Our first steps toward a more grounded visual…
👉 Join our Discord: From the very beginning, we knew that creating a memorable character is one of the hardest and most challenging aspects of video-game development—something nearly all developers, especially indie teams, struggle with. With that understanding, we accepted early on that designing our protagonist would be the toughest part of developing Firva . They say every story has a hero,…
👉 Join our Discord: Hi everyone, In our last post, we talked about how our vision for the final game has evolved, and while some changes, made by choice, others by necessity.

👉 Join our Discord: Discord In those early months, everything was trial and error . Prototypes. Sketches. Scrapped builds. Endless experimentation with mechanics and ideas. The process was frustratingly slow, but it was a messy, chaotic journey to discover Firva’s true heart. Without a full team, all we could do was build simple prototypes. But even the best prototype is just a shell unless it…
How It All Began: Every story has its humble beginnings, and Firva is no different. But what makes our story unique is that it didn’t start with a big budget, a fancy studio, or even a clear roadmap. It began with something far more powerful: a dream. A dream driven by ambition, determination, and a passion to create something meaningful. Firva was born from the vision of our project lead, Reza…
Devlog 001: The Harsh Truth of Indie Development If you’ve been around Steam long enough, you’ve seen it: A promising indie game appears a striking trailer, a cool-looking demo. You wishlist it, maybe even follow the Devs, hoping this is one of those rare gems that makes it. And then… silence. No updates. No Devlogs. No social posts. It starts to feel familiar. Another project, another good ide…
