Loved this!... Keep it up!
A cummendable effort! We'll done! 💯
I appreciate that 🤩. Take care
Not sure if "best" is the right word, but Joel's death scene was so impactful, even when I knew he had it coming and had to happen.
Also, over a decade ago but inFamous 2 evil ending when you last encounter Zeke. Oof, what a gut punch!
Thank you!!! Yes, the full game is going to be a complete story. There are only two of us working on it, but we are planning to release the whole game in late 2026. The demo is awaiting approval by Steam, and once that is complete, a few final touches should be enough to release it more broadly. Our demo is actually the first chapter of three, and we have all three chapters mapped out already. It's just a matter of bringing the last two up to snuff and then doing a final polish run.
Yeah! I can see that! Unravel comes to mind too (Out of nowhere)
Yeah! Exactly like those!
So GOOD!!!! You are right...
Abso-fricking-lutely!
After the "Dave the Diver" nomination for Best indie Game at the Game Awards, I've been struggling to draw a clear line here.
I feel like, yes, Dave the Diver feels very Indie to "me" but it's hard to say that of the studio itself.
Is the "Indie feel" something bigger studios might look to imitate in the future?
I might get behind something like that.

Games in the AAA space tend to be "forever games." Almost demanding all of your free time to enjoy it. Even single-player ones, like Elden Ring and the new God of War(s), they have a story, but they want you to be in their worlds for as long as possible.
Don't get me wrong, I love a good story, but can we get shorter games? Like, concise experiences that are free of bloat?
I find myself ignoring AAA announcements because I "know" they will be games that take forever.

Thanks! ☺️ Let me know your thoughts 😊
Thanks for taking a look ☺️. There are no AI or ARG elements to the game. Are you able to elaborate on what made you think that was the case?
Thanks! The Steam page still needs some (loads) of work but it'll get there ☺️

Absolutely! Thank you for the correction!
As I get older, I notice that the open world formula is tiring! I much prefer a linear game told well than the same game with add-ons.
I was looking forward to Days Gone. I haven't had it spoiled for me, so I picked it up and when I realized it was open world, it killed my enthusiasm for it.
I just can't go hours on end forever just because.
For me, open worlds are almost a Nay! I've heard great things about Days Gone, and I want to play it, but the amount of time it will take to go through the story, because it's open world, I don't know. I get tired just to think about it.
What about you? Do you enjoy open-world games? Do you seek them?
That's awesome! "Another World" is indeed one of the visual inspirations for the art style 😉. Good eye 😉.
You really are observant, the dialogue options are that big because at first we aimed for mobile too then quickly realized this game is not a mobile game and are yet to update the UI for dialogues.
We will eventually do it, but there's only two of us working on it in our spare time so making sure the frame work is fully there is our priority.
99% of the features are present, 90% of the story outline is complete so everything is falling into place and we aim to launch late 2026. Wish us luck 🤞.
Nitpick away! The more nitpicking the more encouraging it gets for us. That means, that only surface level issues are present. (🤞😅)
As for the teaser trailer, yeah that needs to change, once the demo is out you'll see that changes are needed too. I'd love to hear your thoughts when we release it.
Thanks for the encouragement and support! 🥳
It means a lot 🤩
Thank you!!! 😊
Yes! We are planning to make a new trailer in the next few weeks. 😁
I loved a tiny one called The Last Day of June.
It was on PlayStation Plus and it really had a great story.
