Hi everyone! 26th January officially marks KAIROS' 5th anniversary! 

Although not as renowned as my other games, KAIROS is the first game I've made, and will always have a special place in my heart. This is the game that started my gamedev journey, the game I've dreamed of making since I was a child, and the game that first brought the world in my head into life. 

It also marks 5 years of my game development journey, and I'd like to say thank you to everyone who has been supporting me, regardless whether you've known me through KAIROS or my latest game,Of Frost and Flowers! I'm truly grateful there are still people who are playing my games to this day, and if you're reading this, thank you for sticking around to celebrate this milestone.

Over the course of my game development journey, I've made irreplaceable friends, and without them, creating would not be as fun. Thank you to Kokoro Hane (Tofu Sheets Visual), my first gamedev friend and senpai who I met through Nanoreno 2020-- We've made a lot of amazing memories together and my highlight with her was creating Piece by Piece for Spooktober 2020. Thank you too to Tasha, who gave me art tips, who I randomly derp with, and who I obsess over rice cookers with. A big thank you to my family for supporting my works, especially my dad, who, despite his busy schedule, still freed his time to play my games.

To all the voice actors who breathe life to my characters, proofreaders who patiently corrected my grammar, writers who wove a story with me, translators who are working hard to localise my games, artists who tirelessly drew backgrounds and sprites, streamers who played my games, and to all the other lovely people who have supported me someway or another, thank you all so, so much. Words simply could not describe how grateful I am to have such talented people walk alongside me.

As a special celebration, I decided to spruce up KAIROS' game page a bit and add a new art to this old game of mine!

Thank you all once again! I still have an ongoing chibi raffle at twitter if you still want to join (it ends on 31st Jan), and I plan on making a discord community soon, so look forward to that!

And as a 5th anniversary present, here is a sneak peek of my next planned game! This man will remain in my basement until I find a time to gamedev though.

Stay tuned to my future releases by following my twitter / Instagram, and I hope all of you have a wonderful year ahead!

Cheers,

Elseth!
