Yesterday I launched the demo for a small painting game inspired by my father's paintings.
Less than 24 hours later, it has already gained over 2,000 wishlists and 1,000+ downloads.
I honestly didn't expect this kind of response.
This is #CharmingHill 🎨🌿

@steam_tenten Thank you so much! 🌿
That's actually a very interesting idea. I've been thinking a lot about ways to make sharing paintings easier, and social-media-friendly formats could definitely be part of that conversation
Build cozy underground cities in this minimalist puzzle-builder where every Deeplander has different needs.
Find the perfect place for each one and bring life to the depths.

I never saw my father paint, but I grew up surrounded by his paintings.
Years later, I found his old paint case and, without really knowing how, I started painting myself.
That memory stayed with me for a long time, and eventually became the inspiration for Charming Hill, a small and somewhat experimental painting game I’ve been working on.
The idea behind it is simple:
to create a calm little place where anyone can feel like an artist, even without artistic skills.
You simply place things onto the canvas and, little by little, peaceful landscapes begin to emerge 🌿
@ColorTheBooks Yes! 🥰 Players build the painting themselves by placing elements onto the canvas, little by little, until a landscape starts to emerge 🌿

@IndieGameJoe Thank you so much for sharing Charming Hill, Joe 🙏
As the developer, this honestly means a lot.
This is a very small and deeply personal project, so seeing others connect with it has already been incredibly encouraging. Thank you again for giving it a chance.
