You had me at "hidden from the rest of the world". From one aspiring indie dev to another; cant wait to play it.

[stateflower]

It’s so satisfying seeing you drop the assets into the game one by one

[umekosasaki]

this looks amazing. crimson hollow has been in my wishlist for months now and i am grateful for these type of updates. excited and looking forward to this, and i am willing to wait however long as long as you release how you dreamed it to be! <3

I remember when I first saw your devlog a year ago it inspired me so much that 3 days later I started working on my own cozy farming game.
Super excited for Crimson Hollow and I wish you all the best for the release Courtney.! 💌

[Spirited]

You should definitely be proud it looks incredible what you have done so far and all of your hard work.

I started crying when you said the part about the journey and nothing worth having comes easy. Saying "I hope you don't give up, every step counts" really got me. I'm working on starting a small craft/art business and I get down sometimes comparing myself or getting discouraged. It's nice to hear this sometimes. This game looks amazing, and your journey towards your goals is inspiring. I can't wait to check this out and immerse myself in your world :)

Please let us personalize our house in the game, I love so much the variety of furniture, walls, objects etc especially in your drawings!

[ThePhamton]

THE GAME is art, I think that the lights made this game sincerely beatiful, you dream is amazing.

Fellow game dev here, I love watching these videos. They give me the warm fuzzies seeing someone working on their dreams. Thank you for making these! :)

[learningcurve]

I cannot believe its been a year !! I'm really glad you pushed through in making this game^^ I've been keeping up with the updates and the progress has been crazyy amazing. Keep it up and happy wishes with the game!

[spenserdavis]

I absolutely LOVE your art style - the fact that you're hand-drawing it all entirely on your own blows me away. Subscribed! Can't wait to watch you continue your journey.

I have a few suggestions for the character creator:
An icon next to the RGB sliders that shows the current color (so we can more easily preview it) as well as maybe the little hair/clothing colors also being affected by these changes?, and a hex code that we can copy and paste so we can use the same color on different parts of the character. OR a color wheel + brightness and saturation sliders instead of the RGB sliders for colors, i feel like this would make it easier to pick the color you want.

Either way good luck with this project! it's looking really good and i always look forward to seeing your videos! i'm probably gonna be a day one purchaser when it comes out lmao.

Every devlog I see from you makes me think even more that this game has potential to become a beloved indie darling.

[beardedartisan]

Currently sitting proudly on my Steam wishlist. This looks like a beautifully chill game with wonderful concepts, worldbuilding, game mechanics and of course amazing design! Huge congratulations to you for sticking with it and making the 1-year mark. Keep going - there's tonnes of people here who love what you're making and it's wonderful that you're pursuing your passion!

[ChaoticFrostie]

I don't think I've ever commented, but I absolutely adore the style of this game, and love seeing the progress you make. I look forward to the next devlog!

[Faehra]

I remember watching the first devlog last year. I wasn't even halfway through the video before I knew this was exactly the kind of game I NEEDED to play. Been keeping up with things in your discord and I'm so excited with how far you've come!

[mimiayako]

I'm so rooting for you!! I love what you've shown so far of Crimson Hollow and I'm so happy you decided to make and share your project with us~

Here's to another great year 🍻🎉

[nicholasjene]

Amazing seeing this after all this time! I’ve been so excited for it and still am. Thanks for updating us!

[speedasian]

Not only is this super exciting as a game, but thank you for sharing your game dev journey! Truly inspiring for me to keep growing as an artist! Can’t wait to see more!

[MarushiaDark]

Congrats on your anniversary. I'm really enjoying how this game is coming together. The art is gorgeous and massive respect for the fact you've done most of it by hand by yourself so far.
