Heaven and Fire

FAQ of the game has been updated. Disclaimer: it is not true that you must be dead in order to play this game. It gives some advantages but you can be alive while playing. heavenandfire.com/faq/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion

Testing out how to start fires in the forests, which you can burn down if you play for Hell, in order to bring chaos, destruction, and death to Earth. Don't let the Angels put out the fire and save the forests! heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angel #Nature #Forests

Among the tasks you'll undertake in Heaven and Fire, one will be to care for and protect the forests from evil if you're an angel. Or to burn them down and send them to hell, if you serve hell. You choose the fate of Earth. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angel #Demon #Nature #Forests

You are dead. And you are given a Sacred Mission. Will you lead the Earth to total peace, or send humanity to a burning hell? It's your choice. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Strategy #ScreenShotSaturday #indiedeveloper #Religion #Afterlife

This is the starting screen when you begin a new game in Heaven and Fire (WIP). Will you lead the Earth to total peace, or to a burning hell? heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #gaming #indiedeveloper #shortcuts #Afterlife

You may have heard the terms “996” or “777” schedules. Some advice from an old developer: your health, your family, and your friends come first. Work hard, yes. But live your life, too. Take it from someone who’s had two heart attacks from overwork. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev

The Heaven and Fire YouTube channel is now live, and starting in December, it will feature videos of the game, including detailed tutorials to show how to play. www.youtube.com/@peterkratky... #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Strategy #gaming #indiedeveloper

Development continues, and I hope to finalize the critical aspects of the game by December, and open Steam page. No Early Access release; I'd rather delay it than release it before it's finished. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Strategy #gaming #indiedeveloper

I can confirm that the Steam page for Heaven and Fire will go live between December 3 and 15 at the latest. Death will never be the same again. Thank you very much for your support. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Strategy #gaming #indiedeveloper

Remember: a proof of concept can be cloned. A masterpiece, never. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Strategy #AI #Anthropic #Claude #ChatGPT #OpenAI #GPT-6 #Fable

Heaven and Fire Keyboard shortcuts (WIP). Many people enjoy using keys in strategy games. heavenandfire.com/keyboard-sho... #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #gaming #indiedeveloper #shortcuts #Afterlife

Yesterday someone told me I'm too old for creating games. Remember: you're never too young or too old to be creative, to imagine new worlds, to take another step into a new dream. And, by the way, AI can't clone your dreams. Keep imagining and building dreams. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #AI

After hiring the soul of a recent deceased and give it an avatar, it will be important to send it to the training camp, before it starts to fight against angels or demons. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Strategy #Death #Religion #gaming #indiedeveloper

In Heaven and Fire you'll have different tasks to accomplish. For example, in this tab you'll control your angels or demons converting citizens to your cause. Prealpha. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #gaming #indiedeveloper

Heaven and Fire manual has been updated. The Dark Angel will be one of the most powerful beings in the game. But dangerous too. heavenandfire.com/haf-manual/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #TrailerTuesday #gaming #indiedeveloper

Just a word to inform that work with Heaven and Fire continues well, but there are many things to do in order to show the game in December. I'm working with the core elements of the game and that requires hard work. Stay tuned! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev

Heaven and Fire will be a complex strategy game. But, there will time for a good combat too! Some early alpha scenes here. More info soon. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #TrailerTuesday #gaming #indiedeveloper

When an angel or a demon detects an enemy on the map, the combat option is activated. If you wish you can manually control the fight. This is an initial combat WIP image. Some important elements still missing. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #afterlife #Strategy

Heaven and Fire manual (The AfterPedia) has been updated. This is work in progress, but many of the critical elements of the game are quite developed. heavenandfire.com/haf-manual/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #tutorial #manual

For the first time since I started developing my project, I'm beginning to see a horizon for a working game. I'm going to try to launch the Steam page before December, but only if I feel it's the right moment to show it. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #afterlife

Gonna tell you something very important: the Afterlife exists, and not only that. They use a currency: the Souler. With Soulers your death will be great. With no Soulers... Well, if you're like me you know what I'm talking about. More info: heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames

I'm continuing to work on the calculations to solve the equations that assign each character a set of values that will give them the qualities needed to perform the various tasks in the game. All these numbers are tedious but essential. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #strategy

Disclaimer: I'm not using AI to develop my game. I respect other ideas, but those who are telling me I'm mistaken must know I am sure of what I am doing. Every line of code is being written by me. Thank you. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Strategy #Angels #Demons

In a strategy game, there are three phases: defining parameters, calculating parameters, and analyzing and calibrating parameters. I am currently between the second and third phases. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Strategy #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Math

The abilities page has been updated. Now you can see the multiplier effect on your demon or angel level. This applies to city tasks and the combat power. heavenandfire.com/angels-and-d... #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Religion #Afterlife #Strategy #Power

When assigning angels or demons to a task, keep an eye on their stats; they might be completely useless for that task, causing you to waste both time and resources. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Religion #Afterlife #Strategy #Power #Conversions

One of the first tasks in Heaven and Fire is to convert citizens to your cause. Loyal disciples to worship you so you can gain eternal wealth and power. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Religion #Afterlife #Strategy #Power #Conversions #Discipules

I took this photo days ago. Not the main icon for my game, but it will be used sometimes. By the way they are the best dogs you can imagine in the world. heavenandfire.com/faq/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion #dogs #pets

Heaven and Fire main menu (WIP). When you click all buttons will appear to enter the game, options, etc. From the Earth you'll see souls leaving the planet going to the Afterlife. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Religion #Afterlife #Strategy

If you enjoy numbers, statistics and complexity I think you’ll enjoy Heaven and Fire. By the way this is my new guitar. No related but I’m happy ☺️ heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #Strategy #numbers #math #indiegamedev #angels #demonstrates #religion

FAQ for Heaven and Fire has been updated. Meanwhile working with the core elements of the game continues. I'm now by far with the most difficult area of development associated with a strategy game. heavenandfire.com/faq/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Angels #Demons #Afterlife

Avatars sections of the manual have been updated with lots of information about statistics. You'll have to know the good and bad of every angel and demon to win. heavenandfire.com/haf-manual/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Angels #Demons #Strategy #Death #Religion

Lost with so many options, angels, demons, parameters, rules? No problem: the AfterPedia will inform you about everything in great detail. heavenandfire.com/haf-manual/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #demons #angels #Heaven #Hell #Strategy #videogames #indiegamedev #Souler #Death #indiedeveloper

I am pleased to announce that the Steam page for Heaven and Fire will go live on December 3. Note: The dead will receive an initial 20% discount in the game. More information soon. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #Steam #indiegamedev #Religion #Heaven #Hell #Demons #Angels #Afterlife #Videogames

Just a quick update to let you know that I'm still moving forward, but we've had two months of 42-degree, and storms with several people dead and destruction at home. It's hard to work under these conditions. More news coming soon. Thank you very much. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev

The Souler is the official currency in the afterlife. In the game, you will need to manage your finances with Soulers. More info soon. heavenandfire.com/haf-manual/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #demons #angels #Heaven #Hell #Strategy #videogames #indiegamedev #Souler #Death #indiedeveloper

New page in the Heaven and Fire manual: Training camps, perfect for training your angels or demons: heavenandfire.com/training-cam... #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #demons #angels #Heaven #Hell #Strategy #videogames #Steam #Religion #indiegamedev #Humanity #Afterlife #Death #indiedeveloper

Right now almost no one is reading the page of the game. This is made on purpose while I prepare the web and material, for me is critical. Steam, Indiedb, and many other sources will be informed when ready. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #strategy #afterlife #Steam

I want to open the Steam page of Heaven and Fire when I have material to show. First images & videos will be presented in 3-4 months. Meanwhile, a new page for the manual can be read here: heavenandfire.com/tasks-outsid... #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #strategy #afterlife #Steam

I'm working on a key aspect of the game: the economy. The game's currency is the Souler. And believe me when I say that you might be dead, but without Soulers, no one will want you—not in heaven, not in hell. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #strategy #afterlife

Some parts of the manual for Heaven and Fire are now ready in a first alpha version. You can read the document here: heavenandfire.com/haf-manual/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #demons #angels #Heaven #Hell #Strategy #videogames #Steam #Religion #indiegamedev #Humanity #Afterlife #indiedeveloper

Note: Despite the rumors, a mid-range computer running Windows, Mac, or Linux will be enough to play Heaven and Fire. You don't have to die and live in the afterlife, although it's true that doing so does offer advantages to the player. Thank you. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames

Avatars are the celestial bodies that deceased souls receive after dying. Heaven and hell need to choose carefully before the war begins. More info: heavenandfire.com/avatars/ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #afterlife #religion #indiegamedev #angels #demons #spirits #death #life #videogames

FAQ for Heaven and Fire has been updated. And remember: when you die, forget living a sweet Afterlife. You'll have to work hard. What were you thinking, lazy soul? More info: heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #indieauthor #Afterlife #videogames #Strategy #Religion

On August 5, I'll be presenting the main section of the game manual, which contains the core elements. It will be quite complex, this is not an arcade (I love arcades by the way). But here your strategies will be critical. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #angels #demons #Afterlife

The soldier's skill is only suitable for combat, not for interacting with the souls of mortals. But is critical for you. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #demons #angels #Heaven #Hell #Strategy #videogames #Steam #Religion #indiegamedev #Humanity #Afterlife #Death #indiedeveloper

Training camps are the places where your angels or demons prepare to improve their skills. It's a slower, but effective, way to enhance your entities and level them up for their missions. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #Hell #Heaven #Afterlife #Strategy #Earth

Are you old enough to remember those huge paper manuals with the instructions for your favorite strategy game? Because I'm writing a “bible” for my game that you'll be able to take with you to the bathroom. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #strategy #manual #indiegamedev #books

Yes, Heaven and Fire is a strategy game, but angels and demons have levels and attributes you must develop to win. More info soon. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #demons #angels #Heaven #Hell #Strategy #videogames #Steam #Religion #indiegamedev #Afterlife #Death #indiedeveloper

I'm writing the main code for the game at a temperature of 43 degrees Celsius. Yes, air conditioning, but after a while it's even worse than burning in the sun's fire. Perfect for a game where hell plays a central role. heavenandfire.com #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #videogames #indiegamedev
