Another month gone by. There's no major updates this month, since we just had thelevel editor releaselast month. However, there is a somewhat major update coming out next week!
You may have guessed from the title, but we're adding Japanese localisation to the game! It'll release onWednesday, 12th of April. As someone that's been trying to learn Japanese for a long time, this is another step in the development that I've been looking forward to very much.
I'm also really glad that we can release this already, so it'll be well out by the time I visit Tokyo Game Show in September!
Other news
With the level editor and the beginning of the modding support already in place, I've taken a bit of a step back from Kandria development for a bit, and instead focused on working on a lot of other stuff that's been way overdue, like moving and upgrading our servers, taking care of my mental health, and starting work on pre-pre-production for the next game. However, Kandria development is not yet done. The second and final major update with an official modding API is still coming. I don't have a release date for that yet, so I hope you remain patient! In the meantime,my paperfor theEuropean Lisp Symposiumin Amsterdam was accepted, so I will be presenting Kandria there. The paper is quite technical, but if you're interested in Common Lisp, it might be worth a read. And if you're going to be in Amsterdam, let me know. I'd be happy to chat!
That's it for now
A rather short update this month, but if you're interested in the details of the pre-pre-production process, come on hang out in theShirakumo channelwith the rest of us! We're discussing all the improvements to Trial there.

🎮 Full Controller Support
- [42.79 M]
Hack and Slash Puzzle Platformer ARPG
Kandria is a hand-crafted, 2D action game, which combines the wall-climbing verticality and precision puzzle platforming of Celeste, with the tight hack and slash swordplay of NieR:Automata, all set within an epic, post-apocalyptic RPG story and world. Questions of artificial life and android ethics abound as you thread and fight your way through hostility, and a complex web of uncertain truths.FIGHT TO SURVIVE
- Play as The Stranger, a powerful android recently unearthed from the ruins of the old world.
- Perform tight, smooth hack and slash combat against rogue robots and malcontent humans - you’re faster, stronger, and can jump higher. But are you smarter?
- When you think you’ve mastered things, prepare yourself for epic boss battles with beasts and machines, which slumber and lurk deep beneath the earth.
STRUGGLE WITH HUMANITY
- Explore vast, open and interconnected levels full of non-linear missions, challenging platforming, and gorgeous pixel art decay - cross the barren surface, or spelunk deep underground.
- Meet flawed characters and factions struggling to survive; choose who to follow, and who you’ll help or hinder as you forge your own future amongst the ruins.
- Thread your way through prejudice in an epic detective quest of mystery, grit and self-determination.
INDIE HEART & SOUL, MODDING SUPPORT
- Made by a tiny team headed by Shinmera, an indie developer of not only games but also art and software, who crafted the unique engine, world, art style and atmosphere.
- Features thousands of frames of hand-drawn, hand-animated pixel art characters and locations, and an atmospheric, futuresynth soundtrack.
- Built in Trial, a highly-moddable, custom game engine and toolset created just for this title, which lets you mod content and create your own levels.
- Indie love and passion guaranteed.
