Steam Trailer

It's been a fun journey releasing my first game and seeing the feedback & positive reactions it has received! This all motivates me to continue creating games & telling stories that I think are worth telling.

In the meanwhile, I'll keep the game updated to fix any problems or bugs that might show up.

You can contact me on Twitter @ISegarane if you have questions about the game or just want to talk!
