  🎮 Dev Roast Round 2: We Took the Hits and Leveled Up 🔥

  🔥 Dev Update — Roast Round Two: We've Applied Your Feedback! 🔥Hey everyone!A few days ago, we shared an early clip of our Metroidvania project and asked for honest feedback over on Reddit. The community delivered — and in true Metroidvania fashion, we went back, explored the weak points, and unlocked some upgrades.Today, we’re excited to show you a new short gameplay clip that reflects many of the improvements you asked for. Animations, lighting, visual clarity — we tackled it all (well, as much as possible for this round!).🎬 \ (insert YouTube or Steam video link)🔍 What's New in This Clip?🕹 Better Lighting — We brightened things up where needed while keeping the mood intact. 🧍‍♂️ Clearer Interactables — Breakable chests and key objects now have subtle highlight layers. 💥 Improved Effects — Impact feedback is starting to take shape with particles and subtle shake. 🎨 Style Pass — Still a WIP, but we’re starting to hone in on a more cohesive visual identity. 🧭 Community-Led Direction — All thanks to your honest comments and roasts 😅🔥🗨 Some Highlights from the Feedback:“Animations are bricked up like an incel in a room with Sydney Sweeney.” — @BeardiusMaximus7 (the roast king)“Lighting improvements look great... Visual style is a bit mixed up — feels medieval and sci-fi at once.” — Reddit feedback“Much clearer. Great job. Cohesive, yes — just not screenshot-worthy yet, but that’s fine.” — @bluestjordan👀 What’s Next?We're heading into art-focused Discord servers to dive deeper into visual design and animation.

  Exciting New Marketing Addition for Our Upcoming Metroidvania!

  Let’s keep diving into Jumit family’s new acquisitions! Today, we’re excited to introduce you to our digital marketing expert, Daylen. She’ll be gathering feedback on what you’d like to see in our new Metroidvania, so we can deliver exactly what our community wants. Collaboration Born from Fascination “As a lifelong fan of Metroidvania's parent genres, I’ve always been captivated by what makes these games so special. My mission is to dive deep into the community, understand its desires, and ensure that Orin delivers on those expectations. We’re committed to creating a game that resonates with the Metroidvania community. By listening to your feedback and analyzing your preferences, we’re able to shape Orin into the best possible experience.” A Self-Made Digital Marketer Daylen didn’t follow the traditional path into marketing. She’s been self-taught since she began her B.Sc. in Biochemistry at the University of Havana. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44506110/3d2c9bbf483da3b60edd3cfcd0f367e31ce3b6eb.jpg “I started exploring the world of digital marketing in my second year of college. I taught myself the basics, which later helped me land my first clients during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020. I’d say my greatest learning experience came from facing the real world before I was 'completely ready.' There’s nothing like making big mistakes, learning from them, and constantly improving to become who you aspire to be." “I’m also a cat lover and proud cat mom. I enjoy great films—mostly American, I’ll admit—and I’m obsessed with staying up-to-date by listening to podcasts. Lately, I’ve become a huge fan of Orin and have been racking up hours playing the test version. But to see just how good I am, you’ll need to watch the video!” Stay Tuned! Curious about the video she’s talking about? Check out our latest post on our social media channels! We invite you to hear what this cat lover has to say. She claims to be pretty good at Orin’s demo… but we’ll let you discover the truth behind that s...

  NEW BOSS! Meet Gorou, the boss you'll hate, and his creator, THEO

  New BOSS out of the oven in our metroidvania indie game: Orin ⚡Breaking! We have a brand-new BOSS. We invite you to discover one of our first, most relevant bosses, Gorou and 🥁 the rock star behind the modeling. Gorou, our new boss's 3D Model {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44506110/d99f11f7ed8dad0f583daf6b14739d483ead0554.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44506110/a563b807040b93c089c7a3a63190cd0662c24ac8.png Final render!! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44506110/a0575a0692824c18d4abe5e176195285b8751c37.png Gorou is the one who rules at the enigmatic yet beautiful, Shadow Gate Region. He's the leader of the Dunkels tribe. This tribe is widely distinguished by their ability to manipulate shadows to their convenience. They can camouflage themselves, move silently, and create illusions of light and darkness. So... the next time you feel like something just moved in your room at 3:00 AM, be careful, warrior, could be a Dunkel snicking around by Gorou's orders. BTW, SPOILER: get ready to hate the guy. Hopefully that won't happen, as Gorou and the rest of Dunkels' tribe he commands will be rather busy. Wonder why? Well, it turns out Gorou himself stands as a powerful adversary to the main character, our great Orin, leveraging his immense strength and leadership skills to challenge him.

The great Theo, our new 3D artist. Hardworking and passionate, he brings up tons of enthusiasm and smiles to the Jumit Games' family, that continues to grow! Theo works tirelessly to deliver exceptional art to our project at the time he studies Architecture at college. We are deeply proud of him! Your support matters! Please do not hesitate to send us feedback on what you'd like to enjoy with Orin. Also, keep an eye on the updates.
