- Painted Legend - Now and 10 Years Ago - 15 April 2026
July 28, 2016 marked the release of the very first classic Painted Legend! That means this year it’s turning 10 years old! With that in mind, I’d like to take a look back at how our good old PL evolved over time through these screenshots:1.

A tech demo where my idea of “knights on a notebook page” started to take shape. At that point, the game was still entirely in blue ink on a white notebook sheet, but these were the very first screenshots ever published on Steam Greenlight for community feedback. (2016)3.

I’d say I’ve added Metroidvania elements—though only elements, as my game has its own unique approach and doesn’t strictly follow all the core principles of the genre.
