- Studio Updates + Limine / Storyline Timeline Updates - 6 March 2026
Studio Updates + Limine / Storyline Timeline Updates hey guys!! so i got some news about the project it's about the timeline, I'll probably scrap everything and start a completely new one. why? well, A Liminal Place R had good graphics but the timeline and story weren't that great (and it had a LOT of bugs). TSP fixed most of the bugs and improved optimization, but the story still wasn't where i wanted it to be. when i first started developing Limine, i realized i couldn't really connect the ALP timeline with the Limine one in a way that felt right. so yeah… we'll probably scrap the old timeline and make a new one from scratch. this time it'll be more inspired by the vision of Kane Pixels and the analog horror style. i think it'll end up being way better than the older games :p also, about the studio... i'll probably restart that too. when everything started i was really new to the whol…

A Liminal Place News + Health UpdatesHey guys. First, about ALP…I might have lost the original project files :(( I’m really sorry about that.ALP was already close to the end of its updates anyway, so there wouldn’t be much more coming for it!About my health, I started the first part of the treatment. I’m not in a very good state right now, low energy and stuff, but I’m trying my best :/I’ll try to make up for losing the original ALP by bringing some of its old ideas into the new game, LIMINE :D Here are some small sneak peeks for LIMINE: (I'm planning on making levels bigger) That´s all for today!! :D

- NEWS!! - 3 January 2026
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Pretty late, I know lol I wanted to post a small update and also be honest with you all!! Lately, I’ve been dealing with some life stuff, depression, and more. Because of that, I haven't been able to work properly on Limine. I’m really sorry for the silence and the delays!! It was never because I stopped caring, quite the opposite. 🩶 The good news is: Limine is in a pretty good state for now! Most of the core systems are done, the settings menu fully works with variables and more, graphics can use HWRT if needed, and more. No DLSS for now — only Resolution Scaling and AAs. What’s left is mostly polish, bug fixing, and maybe adding some new levels. Right now, I just need some time to clear my mind and slowly get back into things!! Thank you so much to everyone who’s been patient!! Seeing people care about something I made in my room still means the w…

- Stepping Away Indefinetely - 5 June 2025
Hi everyone, Alan here. I’ve recently learned that my cancer has progressed and is now affecting my muscles. I don’t have much time left, and I can’t afford the surgery. Because of that, I’ll be stepping away from all my projects (TGST, RootWorks, ALP, TSP, SSBX, etc.) to take time for myself — to travel and do what I’ve always wanted. Thanks for everything, Alan.

- The Solitude Project Release + graphics explanation - 24 February 2025
now i am going to release it fr here are some explanation about the new "psycho" graphics mode every graphic mode (from low to high) uses lumen and partial ray tracing for lightning (lightning bounces, shadows and AO). But, the new graphical modes "epic" and extreme "psycho" uses lumen and FULL RT for lightning. (epic uses full rt but with low quality samples, and psycho uses hq samples for full rt) here are some images from level 2: High (n_frt.png) As you can see, the shadows from emissive lights doesnt fit the wall at all, it looks blurry and low quality. And, the lightning is "strange", its yellowish, not that realistic, and with almost no AO at all in the brighter areas. Psycho (frt.png) Much better! The shadows now fit the walls, and the lightning is now more realistic, with more bounces. And RTAO is now better! High (n_frt1.png) Same thing, the shadows dont fit the scene emissive…

- News About the Game Release (The Solitude Project)!! (And a Personal Reflection) - 23 February 2025
Hello again! I'm here to make an announcement about the game's release! Yes, it's closer than you think. And… sorry for the delay!!! 😃 I'm currently working on Bedev version 0.77 (Beta - Early Development, though it's not that "early" anymore since it's almost finished!). Here’s everything I’ve added and changed in just one day: Settings button in the main menu Reworked the settings menu Added an explanation for everything in the settings menu! Reworking the levels, trying to make them longer but not boring! Improving graphics and textures Added a new graphics option called "Psycho" (this increases samples for everything—reflections, ray tracing, Lumen, etc.) Now, about the delay in launching the game: I'm really sorry for the delay. I've been through some difficult times. I don’t know if it’s worth mentioning, but here we go… I fell into depression again. I couldn't even get out of be…
