devlog 1/7/2026

I hate making these posts because it genuinely makes me feel like just another one of "those" devs. But honestly, I'm putting Duplicity on an indefinite hiatus. Right now, I don't have the focus to put the work into it that it needs.

I'm tired of it feeling like an elephant just looming over my shoulder and it's making me feel like I can't enjoy doing anything else. It's becoming a chore rather than something that I like working on.

I could also blame this on my shift to a more dark romance genre rather than yandere. I'm finding myself writing and leaning towards that, and it's not something that works with the yandere genre. I don't want to perpetuate nor condone toxic relationships or obsessive love by mixing the two together.

Or something like that. (had a long day, no thoughts, head empty)

Anyway, for now, Dupe will be suspended. Feel free to continue sending asks, I'll still answer those. But art and other stuff are on the back burner for now until I can love it again.

If you want to keep up with me or my work, my main blog is indycinders

My new project blog is loneriver-chronicles, and my artblog is cindersarts. I'll still make games! Just... this one needs a break, and so do I.

Thanks,

Sprite Testing and Preview

HE LOOKS SO GOOD MY BABY

alright here's the deal bunnies, I need to know if everything looks A-OK, or if you'd like me to overlay a soft gradient against the background. All the backgrounds look like that (aside from the ones I've drawn).

bg gradient or no

yes

or no

Taipan character sheet!

dev update

alright so unfortunately

i did not want to make this announcement

but i will need to step away for some time to focus on other things.

i'm in a real bind financially and need to focus on building a portfolio so i can start taking commissions and ease some of the financial burden on my family.

this doesn't mean i won't be working on duplicity. i still will be working on finishing the backgrounds and getting things together, i just won't be able to post and update as often.

i will continue to post character cards when i find the time to make them!

sorry guys, it's just.. holiday season coming up, both of the cars are having issues, i really need to do something to help out.
