"And you consider yourself a REAL fan?" For the monthly dev update, we'd like to introduce Sieb, a timber wolf character to be introduced in Glory Hounds issue 7. He's a mainstay at every Stinger showing and has won multiple cosplay awards, and he will never let you forget it. Ever. #gloryhoundsvn

For this month's development update we'd like to share a teaser work in progress for the Issue 7 romance sequences for both Raoul and Milo by @mashtateos.com! These scenes will have romantic and platonic versions. #gloryhoundsvn #ghvn

Glory Hounds Pocket Issue 3: Basil's Big Adventure is now available! It's Basil's first proper day out, and Alex gets put on tour guide duty for what's surely bound to be a nice, relaxing afternoon in the city of Schippersburg... right? Right?! echoproject.itch.io/glory-hounds...

Happy Pride Month from the Glory Hounds team! Here's a pixel illustration by @jaspersvault.art to celebrate! #gloryhoundsvn #ghvn

While issue 7 focuses on Raoul and Milo, we haven't forgotten about Ahab and are happy to once again state he'll be a romantic option for Alex to pursue in the future. So whether you want to be his matey or his heartie, you're in luck!

For this month we'd like to share the cover for Pocket Issue 3, drawn by @mashtateos.com! Looks like Basil's out on the town! Wonder what kind of trouble he'll get himself into... Pocket Issue 3 is almost finished and will release next month. #gloryhoundsvn #ghvn

Glory Hounds Issue 6: Blood in the Saltwater is now available to the public! echoproject.itch.io/glory-hounds...

Lou Ebbert has been Alex's closest friend since childhood. Their love for gossip and major scoops makes them the go-to person for information on anyone and anything. Just don't ever ask them for movie recommendations, or you'll be watching zero out of five stars monster flicks all weekend.

Barend de Rooij is Alex's adoptive father and the former chief of the Schippersburg fire department, a job through which he met Alex's adoptive mother. He's always willing to offer his support and advice, even though Alex isn't always willing to heed it.

Dusk Hound is on the case! As soon as he gets his costume on, anyway.

For this month's teaser/development update we'd like to share one of the CG sequences that will be featured in issue 6, drawn by @mashtateos.com. Issue 6 is being coded right now and is still on track to release in the early spring. We're hard at work on a third Pocket Issue and Issue 7 as well.

Very proud to be able to say Glory Hounds has achieved over 60k total downloads on Itch! Thank you to everyone who's supported us over the years, as well as all of the artists, musicians, and programmers.

On the outskirts of Schippersburg, something stirs... Background for issue 6 drawn by @sabrewulf.bsky.social.

Starting with issue 6, issues will be split up in volumes of three to make for easier viewing and selection.

To close out the year, we'd like to offer a little sneak peek at the villain for issue 6, Camelia.

"Right now, this is all I can do. And maybe, for now, that's enough..." This illustration was created by @dilukha.bsky.social for issue 5 of Glory Hounds. You can play it here: echoproject.itch.io/glory-hounds

Repost because we changed some itch settings and I had to change the devlog, breaking the original link: Glory Hounds Issue 5 is now available to the public. echoproject.itch.io/glory-hounds...

"..." With issue 5 delving deeper into Raoul's backstory, we wanted to showcase a sprite you'll be seeing, designed by the fantastic @jojoabob.bsky.social. Here's Raoul at age 6, 40 years before the start of Glory Hounds, already obsessed with comic books and all sorts of heroes.

Who needs a bed when you've got a big whale man?

Issue #4: The Thorn in Milo's Side is now available to the public! echoproject.itch.io/glory-hounds...

Meet Basil, the newest addition to the Glory Hounds cast! Don't let the prehistoric looks fool you - he's quite the gentleman. You can get to know him right now in Issue 4, available on Patreon and coming to the public at the end of next week! Sprite was designed and drawn by @jojoabob.bsky.social!

Here's a little sneak peek of one of the CGs featured in issue 4, drawn by Juju, one of our CG artists! Looks like Milo and Alex are having a little chat in the greenhouse.

At 10 feet tall, Ahab's the largest of the bunch - a fact he's all too proud of. He now runs the biggest criminal organization in the city - entirely pirate-themed, with a ban on swearing and unprovoked violence - and when he's not going on grand heists, he's not above stealing a few hearts.

Milo is Raoul's butler, teacher, and only real friend at the start of the story. Not much is known about his past, though his innumerable scars and frightening proficiency in combat paint a pretty good picture. While he doesn't emote much, Milo cares deeply for those he regards as friends.

There are three potential love interests for Alex. First up is Raoul, a reclusive but famous inventor whose attempts to better everyone's lives ended up revolutionizing the city of Schippersburg. His love for comics led him to train in combat and take on the mantle of the Dawn Hound to fight crime.

As threats continue to mount and a mysterious force urges him on, Alex will have to fight for the fate of his city - as well as decide his own. As long as he can keep his head in the game, that is.

Thrust into a position as the Dawn Hound's sidekick, Alex soon finds the job comes with a lot more workplace hazards than he bargained for, from an underwater crime syndicate run by a whale with a penchant for pirates to a master thief who can turn invisible at will.

Alex de Rooij is a dalmatian working a dead end job in the futuristic city of Schippersburg. That all changes when he meets the Dawn Hound, a mysterious masked vigilante... who just so happens to be the enigmatic inventor behind the company he works for.
