Hi everyone! I'm happy to announce that after over a year of work, my new game Unwording is finally out! :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1974250/Unwording The game launches at $4.99, with a 10% discount - so if you've been interested in the game, the best time to get it would be now! It also really helps in getting the game picked up by Steam's algorithm if it's bought (and reviewed!) in the first 24 hours. This would be SUPER helpful and appreciated! Thank you for all the support - this has been quite a personal game with a lot of learnings from my own life and experiences, and I sincer

Hi everyone! If you haven't heard yet, I've been hard at work on my next title - Unwording: A narrative-driven puzzle game about negative thoughts, and how they change our perception of the world.

Check it out and wishlist it here - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1974250/Unwording Here's the announcement trailer - As always, thanks for the support! -Armaan

Hi As you may have noticed, Forgotten Fields suffered from a rough launch and didn't perform as well as I would've hoped. A lot of these were mistakes and oversights from my end and having spent a few months away from the project, I have a decent idea regarding the things that went wrong and could be improved. It's unfortunately left a bit of a sour taste, and I wish to fix that and improve the game - regardless of whether the improvements affect sales or not. The upcoming update will improve the first-person sections, make movement and controls better (they've been massively improved in the u

Hi! Here are the fixes included in patch v1.3a: Major improvements: Fixed: Camera rotation for some players is too sensitive and spins out of control, especially when using the mouse Fixed: Trees, walls and roofs often obstruct the player's view of Sid, especially when in Ethan's house. Most objects and trees now fade out when Sid is blocked from view by them. Fixed: The camera rotation when running through the fields outside Ethan's house is locked. Fixed: Added Vsync. Minor fixes: Fixed: Sid sometimes faces away from the camera when changing outfits in Sid's room in the first scene. Fixed: T

Hi! A number of issues regarding the camera have been reported. These are mainly: 1. For many users, the camera rotation seems to be too sensitive or it spins out of control, especially with the mouse. 2. At many points, the player's view of Sid is obstructed by a wall, roof, tree etc. A fix has been identified for the first issue and will be implemented in the upcoming v1.3 patch. More interestingly, for the 2nd issue, I'm in the process of implementing a feature that will make walls, roofs, trees and other objects fade/ disappear if they block Sid from the camera. Here are some gifs to show

Hi! Here are the fixes included in patch v1.2 for issues reported by players: Fixed: Sid can interact with the other cows in the field outside Ethan's house, and start a cutscene out of order. Fixed: Sid can pet the dog from outside Ethan's house. Fixed: At some points the triggers blocking off the roads outside Ethan's house reappear and stop player movement beyond those points. Attempted fix: For some players, the camera rotates with high sensitivity in some locations. This does not occur on my end, but I've tried making a change to the camera that may improve this issue. At the moment the f
