Scenes from today's Hike. Happy New Year folks.

Studios didn't hire me because I had no experiences in gaming... So I decided to make my own. Here's my first indie game: Maseylia - Echoes of the Past. It's an action platformer, thought as a 3D metroidvania (with backtracking, abilities to unlock, combat...). And it's inspired by Moebius !
