Gentle Gravity Studio

These frog spirits tap on their body to make music and manifest magic. The design takes inspiration in some arachnids as well.

We are working on a website for the studio, as well as some other important details for when we continue to expand our demo. Looots of writing (that we can't show you yet)

A simplified drawing of a farmer, in ceramic colours. She hears music, indicated by bright orange notes. In the corner a text reads: "The origin of the Golden River is a legend that starts with a simple farmer. One that was living her life. "

A simplified drawing in ceramic colours. In the centre one eye surrounded by scales shows in an opening on the ground,as it breaks around it. It looks like an egg hatching. The bright orange notes are there, indicating that this is the origin of the music. In the corner a text reads: "In the vastness of all the land, all that Xoria is, part of the god spirit had awaken to new conscience. And their eye was golden."

A simplified drawing in ceramic colours. It shows the farmer using her tool to leverage the ground, as a bright orange snake comes out of the earth. In the corner a text reads: "Once a scale, now a snake; the farmer helped their release from earth. Pouring it went, free."

A simplified drawing in ceramic colours. A brown peacock is in the background, with a menacing pose and a extended claw. The bright orange snake curls around the now orange silhouette of the farmer, with movement lines that suggest the magic taking place. In the corner the text reads "But punishment awaited the farmer. Xoria was enraged by this defiance. For her protection, she was encased in gold by the Serpent, forever untouched. A statue by the River’s tail"

Some lore for Friday! Here is some folklore from the kingdom of Togos. A story that serves as a cautionary tale: spirits don't always help the ways we expect them to, or in ways we like. This is completely bonus information, as a mention of it barely appears in game.

The uniform for the royal guard is designed with form over function, showing the insignia and the colours of your house. This is one of the characters you can approach in the patio, as she guards the doors to a very important meeting. But will she let you in?

✨El pasado fin de semana se dieron cita varias JAMs de forma paralela, y algunes de nuestres mentorizades de diferentes ediciones han estado participando en ellas, creando proyectos que nos hace ilusión compartiros por aquí 💜.

🧵

Imagen de dentro del juego de Song of the Peacock. Se ve un patio palacial, con columnas de color aguamarina, y una muñeca apoyada contra una pared, centrada en la imagen, que tiene una tetera por cabeza. Una caja de texto oscura en la parte inferior de la pantalla lee lo siguiente "Delante de ti, una muñeca está apoyada en el suelo"

También hemos completado la traducción al español de nuestra demo actual. En nuestros próximos eventos, podréis elegir si jugar en español o en inglés 💃

Now implemented: your inventory. Based on the fabric belt that the character wears, it opens with a cool unraveling animation. There are a number of useful items that you can gain through your interactions with other characters!

Back from our holiday period! It's been a mix of family time and much working. We'll tell you more about it over the next days (:

Muchas gracias por las palabras y por el interés! seguiremos trabajando duro en su desarrollo. Todavía queda mucho por venir (:

Aquest divendres estarem a DOS llocs alhora! La nostra programadora estarà "defensant la primera línia" a Terrassa, on podreu jugar el nostre joc a l'Indie Games TRS. El joc estarà disponible de 3:30 a 8pm. Si esteu a prop, veniu a saludar!

We will be in TWO places at once this Friday! Our programmer is holding the fort in Terrassa, where you will be able to try our game at the Indie Games TRS. It will be available from 3:30 to 8pm. If you are around, please come say hi!

I'm happy to announce that we will be at the Bilbao International Games Conference the 12th and 13th of December.

You can find us at the stand for @powerupplus.bsky.social and try our prototype!
#BIGBilbao2025

An illustration with a white background, of a kid embracing a bear cub. The little bear is about the same height as the kid, and it is returning the hug, with both paws on the kid's shoulders. The kid is wearing white robes with blue decorations, and has a symbol on their back that matches the one in the small fabric tag in the cub's right ear: a ring with a cropped circle in its centre, a shape that resembles the pattern on peacock's feathers.

The illustration of a small bear cub being petted behind the ears by two floating hands. It has the same blue tag in their right ear as in previous images of the set. Their face is scrunched with pleasure at the attention, mouth slightly open.

A small bear cub seated on their hind legs, calmly looking to the viewer. The little bear has a blue tag on their ear with the emblem of the family in white, a circle with a small, somewhat heart-shaped dot in the middle, resembling the pattern in the wings of peacocks.

Having a pet is wonderful. Having a bear cub as a pet is even better! and we plan to let you pet it and hug it in our game.

💜Ha llegado el momento de revelaros los proyectos que estarán en @bigconference.bsky.social (1/2)

🔹Occult Detective de @narilartgames.bsky.social
🔹Bardtastic de @3dgoblindev.itch.io
🔹SUPER★CHARGED MONDAINAI!! de @mondainaistudio.bsky.social
🔹Song of the Peacock de @gentlegravity.bsky.social

A kid from Royalty requires education and supervision, so much of your life has included a governess. Nana is one of the first characters you will encounter in the game, ready to hear about your thoughts.

Some days caffeine is all that keeps you going. but we're making a lot of progress!

There are many things on our to do list for the week. And much of that is related to our upcoming trailer 🤸‍♀️ we'd like to have it ready for the BIG in December

Some things you do, some things you keep. Here is something that won't make it into the trailer

For our english speakers: Song of the Peacock won best project on Animalcoi🙈. There were amazing games alongside ours, and we feel beyond honored. What a wonderful couple of days it has been

Animalcoi ha sido una experiencia fantástica. Estoy feliz de poder deciros que el proyecto de Song of the Peacock fue premiado durante las pitch sessions ayer. Muchas gracias a todos los que vinisteis, y gracias a animalcoi por todo

The event of the week for us is Animalcoi. Our game will be within the pitched projects, and you are welcome to try it the 13th and 14th of November in the showrooms!

A rough sketch of a kid hugging a small bear. They're both around the same height. The sketch has been imposed in a more detailed background of a room, and there is a blot of cream colour obscuring the details in the centre, as a clean space for the lines

Pet the dog? we are working so that you can hug the bear!

Proxima cita: Animalcoi! Ara, nuestra artista y escritora, ha sido invitada a hablar el 13 de noviembre a las 13:00 sobre animación y videojuegos. También presentamos nuestro proyecto esa tarde en las pitch sessions.

Here is the process behind the design of the protagonist's room in Song of the Peacock #speedpaint

Happy Halloween! will you give them your blood?

Laia Serra is the talented musician composing for Song of the Peacock. For the music that will play in the palace, we looked for something somber, that reflected the weight of a space reserved for royalty.

A pin of Godot's logo (videogame programming software). It looks like a little robot head

One of the coolest parts of going to events is finding community with other programmers and getting feedback on your work. Juls' pin had a lot of success too

We're working on some animations for the menu (:

We are now planning for the next stages of development, and our next event appearance in the BIG in Bilbao. Much to do!
