Loveable programming puzzle game Algo Bot
Before starting the production of the next typing game, there is a game called Algo Bot that we'd like to release :algoproud:.

THE STORY
Deep inside the Europa, a pan-galactic colonization ship, the sleeping crew dreams about their new life on the far side of the galaxy.
But there can be no rest for Algo Bot, a service droid working on the junk deck. When a routine recycling mission with cantankerous line manager PAL goes horribly wrong, crisis strikes at the very heart of the Europa.
Unless PAL and Algo Bot can restore the Europa's systems and recover the shipboard AI quickly, there'll be no waking up for anyone.
IN A WORD
Algo Bot blends basic programming skills with gameplay to make a fun, creative and ultimately satisfying puzzle game.
Follow the game or add it to your wishlist to stay updated! :palhappy:

A New Typing Game!
Hello Fox Riders,
After almost two years out, it is time for us to consider the success of Epistory and start another typing game :epilove:.
To please the community, we would like to know what you liked in Epistory and what you want to see in a sequel by completing a survey.
The spiritual sequel will be another typing oriented adventure game set in a related but different world. Nothing is set in stone yet; we have some ideas we’d like to explore, and that's why we are looking for your feedback.
Complete the survey now!
As good news likes company; the game will be 57% off during the whole day :epiparty:, for those amongst you who didn’t have the chance to get it during the Autumn Sale.
Finally, this day marks the very last update on Epistory - Typing Chronicles. With some remaining bugs fixed, an update of the Chinese version and the Italian localization of the game. But we won’t leave you alone :epiwink:! We’ll stay on the discussion forum, as usual, to answer your questions even if we prefer daily chat with people on Discord . We’ll also keep you in touch with the new typing game while waiting for its proper Steam page.
Cheers,
The Team
Epistory is -55% off!
Hello Fox Riders to celebrate both the end of EGX and the upcoming Gameforce, Belgium Epistory is -55% off this week! It is time to grab your copy or, if you enjoyed the game, let your friends know about the game!
Cheers!
Gamescom 2017
Just a little post to remind you that the team will be at Gamescom 2017 on the Indie Arena Booth with our brand new game, Shift Quantum.
We'll be glad if you come to say hi, and to give us your feedback about this new project.
Cheers! :epihappy:
Epistory is available in Chinese!
Hi Fox Riders,
We are glad to announce that Epistory is available in Chinese and now officially supports 10 languages! A total of 14 with the translations made by the community on Steam Workshop.
We were supposed to publish the update for the 1st Anniversary of the game, but due to a slight hitch, it has been delayed until today.
This will probably be the last major update for Epistory - Typing Chronicles to give us more time to focus on our other games in production. Don't worry; it's not a goodbye at all. We'll always be on the Steam forum and Discuss to help you and answer your questions. Speaking of feedback, we are thinking of a DLC and would like to know what you think of the idea.
Thank you very much for these nearly two years of support.
Happy Birthday Epistory!
One year ago, with our hearts beating fast, we held our breath and released Epistory - Typing Chronicles on Steam. And, as promised, we’ve planned some surprises to thank you for all the love and support during the development and even now that the game is fully released :epilove: :epiparty:. It’s always a pleasure to read your comments on the forums and answer them. Keep going guys!
Let’s kickoff the celebration with a 50% discount. Moreover we plan to run some giveaways on Twitter and Facebook during the whole week to make you win Steam keys and the fantastic anniversary t-shirt that the development team wears on the picture below.
But wait! There’s more! Join us for a live stream with the team on the 30th of March 8:30 am PDT ( 5:30 pm GMT+2) on Twitch. We’ll play Epistory and answer all your questions. Meanwhile, you can chat with us everyday on our recently created Discord Channel.
If you want even more insight, we published an article about the whole development of Epistory. You can even play the first prototype of the game!
One more gift, for those of you who’d enjoy reminiscing about the story of the game, we published its full script, written by our dear Joseph J Clark with the illustrations of Amandine Flahaut.
This year has been a great year. Thank you. Now it’s time to move on something else. We’d like to announce that we started development on a new game called Shift Quantum.
Thank you! :epilove:
Do you hear what I hear? New update!
We wanted to give you something special for Christmas. Of course, for those of you who don't own the game yet, the best present will be the discount during the Winter Sales. But for the others, we chose something that sounds less like buying and more like sharing.
You’ve probably noticed that our main menu has a kind of Christmas feeling, so has one of our Arenas. But the major update for this holiday season is the Japanese language fully implemented in the game. As usual, don’t hesitate to tell us if you find typos or weird translations.
Also, IndieDB will announce the Indie of the Year in 5 days. Epistory has the chance to be part of top 100. Don’t hesitate to vote for us if you feel like the game should win. We’ll add that there’s no need to be logged to vote.
To finish, every year for Christmas, we run a 48h internal Game Jam and this year we wanted to share the crazy and unfinished projects from previous years with our community. You can find and download the games here.
Have a wonderful Holiday Season!
Unity Awards 2016
We are so excited to announce that Epistory is finalist for the Unity Awards 2016 in BEST 3D VISUALS :epiparty: :epilove:. It's gonna be a very tough fight since we are in competition with wonderful games such as Armello, Firewatch, ReCore, Inside and The Room.
No need to tell you that any kind of help is welcome, from the vote to the share.
You can vote here:epiwink:
Time flies
In recent news, you may have seen/tested the upcoming Japanese version (available in beta here). That means there will be at least one more big update in the future, with an array of minor bugfixes. :epihappy:
To celebrate, if you post a comment on this news you'll enter a raffle to win an Epistory t-shirt. 5 winners picked randomly. You have 1 week to enter.
Super bonus: We asked the whole studio to wear it! Have an awesome week end! :epicool: :epilove:
