• Dev Note #9 - 4 August 2026

  Hello! This is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.I hope everyone is staying well through the summer heat.In this dev note, I’d like to talk about an area of development that I haven’t had the chance to introduce in much detail before: sound.🔊 Working Directly on What I Know LeastThere are many challenging aspects of making a game, but sound has always been one of the most difficult for me.The main reason is simple: it is the field I know the least about and have the least experience in. I already had some familiarity with programming and graphics from my time at school and working in the industry, but when it came to sound, I had to learn almost everything from scratch—from which software to use to how audio should be managed and played within a game.Since development began, I have gradually built the game’s audio systems while learning the fundamentals of sound software, how to int…

• Dev Note #8 - 24 June 2026

  Hello! This is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.I hope everyone has been doing well. Summer has arrived quickly, and I hope you're all staying healthy in the heat.As I work on bringing the ideas and contributions gathered through our crowdfunding campaign and community events into the game, I often find myself imagining the stories behind them. Whenever I place one of these traces into the world, I can't help but wonder: Who left this behind, and what were they going through as the world approached its end?As I mentioned in the previous dev note, I'd like to share some of the ideas that are gradually becoming part of Goodbye Seoul's world, along with a few of the thoughts they inspired."I miss home" "Don't look back"As chaos first began to spread, communication networks collapsed, and many people abandoned their livelihoods to return to their families and hometowns.But with trains a…

• Dev Note #7 - 7 May 2026

  Hello! This is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.In this dev note, I’d like to talk about the “temperature” of space — the feeling players experience when they first step into a fictional world. I want to briefly share some of the thoughts behind filling the screen with traces of human warmth, and how I’m trying to bring that into the game.👣 Beyond Visual Realism — Creating a Living WorldSometimes, even when we see a virtual world that perfectly recreates reality, it can still feel strangely lifeless and unfamiliar. We can feel the same way looking at photographs or videos of real places, and sometimes even in actual physical spaces themselves.There can be many reasons for this, but I believe one of the biggest is the absence of “human traces.” No matter how faithfully reality is recreated or how accurately a place is brought into a fictional world, if all signs of human presence ar…

• Dev Note #6 - 12 March 2026

  Hello! This is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.It feels like it’s been a while since I last posted an update. First of all, I’d like to apologize for the recent lack of development logs. Since the beginning of the year, I’ve been extremely busy working through a series of big and small revisions to improve the overall quality of the game.In particular, I recently finished the final round of polishing the game’s core element — the story — and have been focusing on implementing changes to the game based on those updates.Today, I’d like to talk about two topics that involved a lot of consideration during development: the camera system, and an unexpected issue we encountered — motion sickness.🎥 Choosing the Right Perspective — Even at the Cost of EfficiencyGoodbye Seoul is a 2D platformer played from a side-view perspective. In this genre, it’s very common for the camera to simply fol…

• Dev Note #5 - 24 October 2025

  Hello! This is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.In this month’s dev log, I’d like to talk about something that defines the entire mood of the game: Spatial Design.I truly believe that even a single ruined alleyway or a torn poster on a wall in Seoul can influence a player’s emotions, so I strive not to overlook even the smallest detail.📸 Image & Video ArchivingWhenever I come across a striking scene while walking down the street, I immediately pull out my phone to take a photo.There have been too many moments when I needed reference material but had none to rely on.Recently, I've also been capturing screenshots from dramas, films, documentaries, and books whenever I come across scenes that resonate with me. These all go into my reference archive folder.While collecting these materials is hard enough, what's even harder is retrieving the right reference at the right moment. I’ve tri…

• Dev Note #4 - 9 September 2025

  Hello, this is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the players who supported our funding campaigns. Between April and July this year, we held two rounds of funding, and thanks to your incredible support, we achieved results far beyond our expectations. On top of that, we are honored to share the joyful news that Goodbye Seoul won the “Best Game” at the Gamescom Indie Arena Booth. None of this would have been possible without your support. Thank you once again from the bottom of my heart.Through this journey, I have felt a bigger responsibility that I have to meet community's expectations, that it is not only about deliver the game, but to ensure that it becomes the best experience possible.That is why Goodbye Seoul is now moving forward with new challenges, aiming to deliver richer content and a higher level of polish. M…

• Dev Note #3 - 21 August 2025

  Hello!This is JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.Today, I’d like to talk about the part of the game that’s undergone the biggest changes since development began: the story.🌀 From Uncertainty to Growth 🌀The initial concept centered around a “vague and abstract atmosphere.While the story was always built around the theme of personal growth and transformation, it was originally told in a more ambiguous, interpretive style.Our goal was to let players engage with the narrative through their own interpretations—but ultimately, we received feedback that this abstract approach sometimes disrupted immersion and made it harder to emotionally connect with the story.In particular, many noted that such abstract storytelling didn’t align well with a narrative featuring defined characters, events, and worldbuilding.In response, I’ve restructured the story to focus more clearly on the inner journey…

• Dev Note #2 - 17 June 2025

  Hello! I'm JINO, the developer of Goodbye Seoul.Time has been flying by as I pour my days and nights into polishing the game. We're currently running a crowdfunding campaign, and to be honest, the level of support we've received has far exceeded our expectations. I’m truly moved and incredibly grateful.There’s still plenty of work ahead, but your encouragement and excitement give me the strength to push forward every day. This month, I’ve been especially focused on refining character movement and animations. I want Rion’s presence—her footsteps, her breath, her place in the ruins of Seoul—to feel truly alive.🚶️ Walk/Run System Update 🏃Quick Steps - but Take Time to Enjoy the ViewOriginally, movement in Goodbye Seoul was designed around speed. The player could only run - no walking. This was intentional, based on the typical preference for fast-paced movement in puzzle and exploration…
