- Carving My Own Path: A Woman’s Journey to Create ‘Lord Ambermaze’ - 3 March 2025
Hello everyone! I’m Anna, the creative visionary, artist, and lead developer of Lord Ambermaze! In our small team, I handle everything except programming—my husband Alex takes care of that. Although I initially studied to be a programmer because I wanted to make games, I ended up discovering my passion for art during my second year of university. My journey in game development began as an artist on a mobile project, and since then, I've worked on various other projects, including three board games, an animated short film, and, of course, many mobile games. But I’ve always wanted to create something of my own, which is why I decided to pursue my projects in 2019. I find inspiration in the ability to create something cool and interesting and express my creativity. In any project, 10% consists of exciting and inspiring tasks, while 90% is routine and tedious work. However, motivation comes…

Hello everyone! We’d like to share a bit about the characters of the Lord Ambermaze, whom our brave hero encounters in various corners of the labyrinth. Just like Zeyn, they all accidentally found themselves on the island and have been its captives for many years. Each of them has their own story, motives, and unique traits. Varion In her past life, she was a hero and a respected citizen of his city. But fame blinded her; the sun of her vanity began to shine brighter than the sun of her heart. Money and popularity are now her main values and the meaning of her life. Is there still a place in her heart for something more? Blu Charming and talented, but she only uses her talents for personal gain—sometimes at the expense of others. Before arriving on the island, she was determined to get rich at any cost, even resorting to fraudulent actions. Rufa She was the most famous sculptor in her c…
