Spent the last few weeks wiring up sound to everything. Projectile sounds, shelter doors creak, each enemy type now has its own spawn sound. Good audio is what makes a world feel real. We also added a new painting animation ! Try the demo -> https://hectiq.games/5Ju&7w #indiedev

Exciting news, Painted Kingdoms will be part of the Six One Indie Showcase 2026! 🎉 And yes, our demo is getting a fresh coat of paint. Stay tuned! #indiegame #gamedev #sixoneindie
Every vertex knows how far it is from the paper's edge. We bake that distance into the mesh itself, so the shader can fade and ink-bleed right where paper ends. No per-frame GPU tricks, just data built in. #gamedev #indiegame #shader Try the demo -> https://hectiq.games/5Ju&7w
We are improving burning building effects! We developed a new tech that allows fire to take the shape of a building! This is still work in progress ;) Try the demo → https://hectiq.games/5Ju&7w #indiedev #gamedev
When a meteor hits, your kingdom will feel it. Today, we worked on a new Meteor VFX that spreads fire through your defenses. Try the demo → https://hectiq.games/5Ju&7w #gamedev #indiedev #realtimeVFX
We are building a new watercolor shader inspired by Chinese ink painting. Starting with Ink brush strokes around our biome paint! The world is starting to feel more and more like a living painting. Try the demo → https://hectiq.games/5Ju&7w #gamedev #indiedev
Your Den now wears its colors. Deer for the forest. Rabbit for the meadow. Crab for the lake. Each Barracks gets a sign for which animal spirit rallies your troops — a small detail that makes the world feel alive. Try the demo → https://hectiq.games/5Ju&7w #gamedev #indiedev
New devlog published. We break down how fire works in Painted Kingdoms, from the simulation grid to the particle system that makes it spread. Lots of GIFs on our Steam community hub: steamcommunity.com/games/359673... #gamedev #devlog #indiegame

In 9 days, we have a big announcement, and we can't wait to share it with you. 👀 Oh, and one more thing... Paper Castle is now Painted Kingdoms. A new name for something bigger. 👑 #indiegame #gamedev
We added Paint Spells to give Paper Castle more depth. Upgrade your castle, fill the gauge, and unleash the Paint Spells. Water explosions or giant mountains? Which one are you picking for your loadout? 🎨🔥 #indiegame #gamedev #gaming #magic Wishlist Paper Castle Now !!! bit.ly/49MsjMm
You survived the fire. Now comes the best part. 😌 The Wave of Restoration returns the paper world to its original state and triggers resource collection for everything still standing. Survive the burn. Get paid. Repeat. #gamedev #indiegames #towerdefense Wishlist Paper Castle Now! bit.ly/49MsjMm
Walls are just a suggestion when Fire Archers are on the field. In Paper Castle, these units can ruin your day if you aren't prepared The good news? They love to group up. Which tower would you use to stop them? 👇 #IndieGame #GameDev #StrategyGame Wishlist Paper Castle Now! bit.ly/49MsjMm
POV: You spent hours building a beautiful paper kingdom and then this guy shows up. 🐂🔥 Rule #1: Do not let the suicide beef touch the walls. Unless you like giant barbecues. 🍖 #indiegame #gamedev #gaming #pcgaming #funny #strategy #towerdefense Wishlist Paper Castle Now !!! bit.ly/49MsjMm
The King is the core of Paper Castle 👑 He builds and upgrades using resources, can paint terrain, and switches between weapons during combat. He’s powerful, but fire can take him down. Long live the King. #towerdefense #gamedev #indiegame #king #strategy Wishlist Paper Castle Now! bit.ly/49MsjMm
We started with a placeholder Then we kept iterating. A lot. Concept, modeling, texturing, rig, animation. He finally feels like he belongs in the world. Huge difference 😄 #towerdefense #gamedev #indiegame #strategy #king Wishlist Paper Castle Now !!! store.steampowered.com/app/3596730?...
Level painting started as pure visuals. We tied it directly to gameplay. Forests reinforce. Water slows fire. Terrain affects outcomes. Every brushstroke now changes how the level plays. #towerdefense #gamedev #indiegame #strategy Wishlist Paper Castle Now! store.steampowered.com/app/3596730?...
Paper Castle is a minimalist strategy game where you build, paint, and defend your kingdom of paper. Harness the power of water to protect it from relentless flames and enemy hordes. Will your Paper Castle survive the next wave? #indiegame #gamedev #strategy #towerdefense bit.ly/49MsjMm
POV: you keep tweaking the paper look. A bit more texture here, slightly rougher edges there. Still paper. Just a little more alive 🙂 #towerdefense #gamedev #indiegame #paper #strategy Wishlist Paper Castle Now !!! store.steampowered.com/app/3596730?...
Fire Piercers weaken buildings with fire before attacking. Sniper towers are a good counter 🎯 Long range and focused damage let you deal with them early. Small matchup, big difference. #towerdefense #gamedev #indiegame #strategy Wishlist Paper Castle Now !!! store.steampowered.com/app/3596730?...
