Hey there, awesome gang:
Nights are starting to get longer and colder in Neo Barcelona. The air feels heavier and crispier than ever, but don’t blame the mega-corporation’s climate control systems just yet, Autumn falls in the city. More opportunities to warm up fighting every bad guy under the neon-drenched night sky, I guess.
We’ve been hard at work on Altered Alma, and we’re excited to share what’s new. So let’s dive right in!
BCN Game Fest 2025, here we go! 🎮
Indie Dev Day just got upgraded: bigger, better and stronger than ever.

🌆 Welcome to the Great Vyne!!
The city is overpopulated and overcrowded with people, crime and neons. That’s why the Great Vyne is here. A whole city by itself, but made of warm nature instead of the cold steel of the mega-corpo buildings… A fresh air from the chaotic gases of the city.
Such a big place makes it impossible to not be inhabited by someone… The Vynefolk, Residents of Neo Barcelona since before the city even finished construction, they are long-lived enough that many of those same settlers are still around today.
Rooted in real places from our own real Barcelona landmarks: the rolling green of the Collserola mountains, the serene gardens of Ciutadella, and even the unmistakable silhouette of Montserrat, rising majestically in the distance.
Just like the city itself, the Great Vyne has layers of history woven into it.
Dev Update: September Progress 📅
- Great Vyne has been improved, with better visuals and level designs.
- Las Ramblas has been improved, updating the visuals and level design
- Sagrada Familia still under construction, new enemies were added and doormans hired.

A huge shoutout to everyone who’s been active on our Discord, giving us your love, support and feedback. Your input has been invaluable, helping us fine-tune the game to make it even better. We’ve been writing down notes like crazy, and we can’t wait to put them to good use as we polish up the final game.
And a special thanks to all the brave souls who’ve already taken Neo Barcelona for a spin and shared their honest thoughts with us in the previous events – you rock!
