Niche: A Genetics Survival Game
Loyalty discount for Wingspan
Our good friends over at Monster Couch have released their digital edition of Wingspan today, and we've teamed up with them to offer a special 10% discount for all Niche owners on top of their launch offer.
If you've not heard of it before, Wingspan is a relaxing strategy card game about birds for 1 to 5 players. Each beautiful bird that you add to your preserve makes you better at laying eggs, drawing cards, or gathering food. Many of the 170 unique birds have powers that echo real life: your hawks will hunt, your pelicans will fish, and your geese will form a flock.
Check out their trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNmg0sJRn_I
Today is the day, Niche has just been released on Nintendo Switch!

Dear pack
Did you know that we’re currently porting Niche to Switch :D? And we now finally have a release date: September 3rd 2020! This took so much more work and time than we expected.

And we hope you will like it too :)

Our second game Nimbatus just launched on Steam!
Dear pack
Our studio has just released its second game on Steam :D It’s called Nimbatus - The Space Drone Constructor
Here is a gameplay overview video we put together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXWlxelXCrg
Nimbatus is a game about building your own drones and sending them out on missions. While the setting (space) is quite different from Niche, they share quite a few gameplay aspects and genres. If you own Niche on Steam, you get 10% off Nimbatus during the next 2 weeks, loyalty discount. Together with the launch week discount, that means 35% off!
Cheers, Stray Fawn Studio
PS: To celebrate the occasion, Niche is currently 50% off :)
Achievement Hotfix
Dear pack,
We just uploaded a hotfix to fix the steam achievements.
It seems like the last update broke the achievements. They should now work again. Unfortunately you have to redo the required actions for some achievements to trigger.
Thanks for reporting these issues!

Niche 3rd Birthday - Sale and Awesome News
Dear pack
Niche just turned 3 years old! And we have some special news to share with you today.
We're currently porting Niche to Nintendo Switch.
AND! we're working on a brand-new Niche mobile game!
Niche is now available for schools and teachers for free!
When the game was released, we started receiving requests from teachers about buying educational licences. After considering all the options we decided to give them the game for free instead. This is our way of saying thank you for all the support we received along the way. Niche wouldn't exist without its Kickstarter and without the people who trusted us enough to buy it during early access. Thank you all for making this possible :)
All infos can be found here: https://niche-game.com/for-schools/
We just uploaded a hotfix (1.2.1) to fix the Japanese Tutorial texts.
Thanks for reporting this bug!
Cheers and Thanks,
Stray Fawn Studio
