- ITORAH Devlog #3 - The Animation of Nahucan - 6 April 2022
ITORAH has been released. But Grimbart has still a lot more to tell and share with you! This time, he will give you insights into the animation of ITORAH's beautiful creatures and characters of Nahucan. Therefore, grab a cup of coffee, or tea, lean back, and enjoy the many things, Grimbart will tell and show you: Let's talk animation! The way our characters are designed presented a special challenge for animation, due to their many small details and complex shading. In the end we decided to go with 2D rigs, sometimes referred to as cutout or paperdoll animation, to keep the workload manageable. Animating Itorah In a game with monstrous spiders, serpents and other gigantic creatures, Itorah still remains the most complex character rig, simply due to the staggering amount of animations she required. To up the quality of her keyframes and poses, Itorah has a huge library of different hands…
- Visually stunning 2.5D action platformer ITORAH is Out Now! - 21 March 2022
Together with developer Grimbart Tales, we are excited to reveal that hand-painted beauty ITORAH is out now on Steam! ITORAH's 2.5D action-platformer gameplay style utilizes a remarkable hand-painted art style rich in earthy, colorful hues. Blending the genres of platforming and action-adventure, this streamlined Metroidvania experience employs crisp controls, a mature story told through compelling cutscenes, and epic world-building within a unique setting sure to invoke a sense of fernweh.

As promised in our first Devlog, our boss, Grimbart, has a lot more to tell! This time, he will give you insights into the many and colorful inhabitants of Nahucan. Therefore, grab a cup of coffee, or tea, lean back in your chair, or couch, and enjoy the many things, Grimbart will tell and show you: Chimali When approaching the central forest of Nahucan, one may spot a few small huts and little campfires betwixt the trees. Once the colossal log walls are within sight, you know you've reached Chimali - one of the few bastions of sentient Nahu in this wilderness. Lead by chieftain Yuma, the villagers settled down here to pursue a more civilized life. Ahui and Yuma Two scholarly siblings with vastly different outlooks on life. While Yumas pursuit of knowledge turned him into a wise and responsible leader to his people, the more solitary Ahui prefers archeology and explosives instead. Natur…

- ITORAH Devlog #1 - An introduction to Grimbart Tales and ITORAH! - 9 February 2022
To start this off: That's right, our boss is a badger. Not just any badger. Grimbart. An old wise vagabond, who's been through a lot. His journeys have provided him with plenty of stories to tell. To share these stories he came up with Grimbart Tales; to give life to his ramblings in videogame form. ITORAH is a 2.5D action platformer with streamlined metroidvania elements. Inspired by many classics from our own childhood, we aim to create a game that may become the cherished memory of somebody else, someday. The narrative of ITORAH is largely conveyed through its characters and environmental observations, so the following Devlog will focus on introducing our protagonists and world to you! Who is ITORAH? Who is she indeed? With a stoic expression and not much love for words, one would assume ITORAH likes to keep her secrets, but this couldn't be further from the truth: She has no idea wh…

- Beautiful Hand-Painted Platformer ITORAH Headed to Windows PC Later This Year! - 23 June 2021
Together with developer Grimbart Tales, we have announced our genre-blending action-adventure title ITORAH is coming to Windows PC via Steam later this year. In ITORAH, the lush and verdant land of Nahucan is under threat from a deadly and mysterious plague! It’s up to the titular ITORAH — who appears to be the last human left — to battle her way across multiple gorgeous biomes, combatting deadly foes and the even deadlier landscape, to stop the threat and save the land of Nahucan. ITORAH harkens back to the Nintendo Game Boy titles that inspired the team at Grimbart Tales. A loveable and scrappy cast of characters, a looming evil that threatens a colorful fantasy land, and of course, progressively more difficult platforming elements are but a few of the genre hallmarks awaiting players when the game drops later in 2021. As ITORAH journeys through the world of Nahucan, she’ll meet a col…
