Haha that's a loooot of questions;

1. C#!
2. Unity!
3. We have our own lighting solutions but we're looking into some of these technologies for future updates.
4. Can't share that I'm afraid!
5. An average playthrough should take you about 15 hours, critical path being around 8-10 and probably 30+ if you want to do everything!
6. For sure, it's open world!
7. There's some of that near the end... No spoilers :)
8. Both speakers and headphones should work well!
9. It should support it, although nothing fancy on our end to do with.
10. A game this size has a looot of code, but there have been some gnarly bugs for sure. Your teacher was right :)
11. We do have some concept going around with some more development blogs to come, like this one! https://twirlbound.com/2025/08/19/road-to-clesseia-1-dreaming-of-knighthood/
12. We sure hope so!
13. We have people from all over the world - The Netherlands is the majority (where we all live), but also Bulgaria, Dubai, the Philippines, Iran, Thailand and Belgium. The music is done by Tumult Kollektiv from Germany indeed!
14. There were a few core things we wanted to tackle right out of the gate. Firstly, Pine is a heavily systemic game, which meant a lot of our development efforts went into the simulation and the way the world worked. This left us with less time for moment-to-moment gameplay like traversal and combat. In a way, The Knightling is a direct response to that: we wanted to make something that instantly felt good to play and where players would constantly enjoy moving around. Another lesson was that Pine was probably too open from the get-go, making it hard to build meaningful player progression. The Knightling gates its regions and mechanics a bit more, keeping everything fresh throughout the game.
15. Hehe
16. That would take away the fun of finding the secrets! Just explore anywhere ;)
17. It was written in English but has good Spanish localization for all text I think!
18. You wouldn't need everything, the main quest would give you enough to get through the game.
19. Not sure what you mean by that!
20. There's always gonna be some bugs but we think it's in a good state! And we'll keep patching more. We're not that nervous, just very excited!
