Hi Friends!
As usual, here’s a monthly report on the game’s progress. I can’t say July was particularly special, aside from the fact that I spent two weeks battling the flu, which slowed me down a bit. Still, overall development went quite well.
Here’s what I’ve managed to accomplish this month:
I planned some changes in the level design of the first area, and this was a great opportunity to improve its visuals.
Hey everyone!
Some of you have reached out suggesting that you'd prefer smaller but more frequent dev updates about the game. Right now, I usually post one full dev report each month. But I’m open to changing the format depending on what works best for you.
The amount of information wouldn’t really change — it’s more about how it's delivered.
I'd love to hear what you prefer and thanks for the support as always!

Hello dear supporters,
The new Dev Report is here, and you can check out what I've been working on over the past month. As you probably already know, most of my time was dedicated to finishing the story and all dialogues, but I still have some new screenshots to share with you. So feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments.

2025-06-26 07:49:09 +0000 UTC View PostNot long ago, I had a great chat with one of my supporters who asked a lot of questions about why I started making Parasite Inside and how the project has grown into what it is today. It wasn’t the first time I got questions like that — and every time, I realized there’s genuine interest in the journey behind the game.
So if you’re curious to learn how PI came to life — from early ideas to the toughest parts of development — here’s the short story. I’ll be shari...

Although this month saw the release of an update, I still have some news and thoughts to share with you. It's not quite the typical dev report, as there isn't much to show, but maybe someone will find it interesting to hear about what I've been dealing with over the past weeks.
Yes, despite my request to avoid it, the game was leaked three days after its early access release. Shortly after the base...

Hey, everyone!
I'm excited to announce that version 0.3.5 of Parasite Inside is now available for all!
This update includes a lot of exciting new content: new locations, new gameplay mechanics, a brand-new puzzle "enemy", updated some animations and cutscenes, and — most importantly — continued progression of the main storyline (~30-40 min of gameplay).
Hello dear supporters!
As usual, it’s the end of the month — which means it’s time for another dev report on Parasite Inside.
April was a month of strong progress, both in terms of content and collaboration. I’ve begun working with a professional level designer from a well-known AAA studio, whose advice is already helping improve both older and upcoming areas of the game. I'm also currently in talks with a freelance animator to help raise the quality of animations across t...

First, command tells us the alien specimen went missing. Then someone whispers a doc smuggled it out. What kind of suicidal maniac does that? Anyway, we hauled our asses to the Power Core, hoping to reboot ASTRA and Cryo systems. We needed them up. No power, no chance to survive. Simple.

Hello, friends!
The March Dev Report is here! Last month, I dedicated most of my time to building a new location - the AstroLink Section - while also adding small gameplay elements and refining existing features. There are a few exciting new mechanics in development, but since they’re still a work in progress, they won’t be included in this report just yet.
Let’s dive into what has been accomplished over the past month!

Welcome to the first Dev Report of the year! January has been quite a challenging month in terms of development, but I believe I’ve managed to implement several key features that will significantly improve the player experience.
As you may remember, there was no Dev Report in December 2024, and since the latest update (0.3.0) was released at the end of last month, I won’t be covering what was done in December. You’ve probably already seen all the new features i...

Hello friends,
It feels like September flew by in the blink of an eye, but looking back, I realize a significant amount of progress was made on the game. This month was largely dedicated to refining and fine-tuning the implant system, along with reworking some of the cutscenes. As a result, this dev report will be relatively short, but packed with updates.

I’ve fully completed the coding, modeling, and UI design for t...

Hello everyone!
Even though the update release is already partially out, I won't break tradition and will give you the monthly Dev Report for June.
Most of my time, understandably, was spent on polishing the game, fixing bugs, and preparing the update for release. I couldn't add everything I wanted to in this update, such as cutscenes in the video gallery or voiceovers for some characters, but I'm working on these and plan to include them in a small update for the second act.
