STASIS on Sale

Update on our next game, Beautiful Desolation
Great news!
Award-winning composer, Mick Gordon, will use his broad experience to tell Beautiful Desolation’s auditory story. We’re thrilled to have such a talent translate our ideas into a sound unique to this game universe.
To many he needs no introduction, as Mick has score titles such as DOOM, Wolfenstein: The New Order and Microsoft’s Killer Instinct reboot under his belt (we said award-winning, right?!); so every note and precisely placed chord will draw you in.
His use of both traditional and modern techniques, and sometimes unconventional musical pairings, matches Desolation’s tribalpunk clash of old and new.
Collaborating with an experienced and passionate artist, who considers the role of the game’s music as a translation of its environment, allows for us to the convey ideas, emotions and backstory for each track.
This way Mick fully appreciates and applies this from the outset to create his own musical vision.

CAYNE is a free, point-and-click, isometric adventure game, following STASIS and features a new graphics engine.

Each step will uncover colorful character stories as you help Hadley find her way out.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.
We have also launched BEAUTIFUL DESOLATION on KICKSTARTER.
BEAUTIFUL DESOLATION is an isometric post-apocalyptic adventure game.
A tragic incident tears apart a brotherly bond but is also the catalyst for an epic adventure that spans from the 1980s and beyond.
CAYNE is in final phase production. Yes, nearly there! We're tweaking animations and sounds, and working through to check its flow. Already, we've decide to add in additional animations and content where we feel it will most benefit the story and game. It can be both a fun and frustrating experience, but being this close to the finish line gives us a daily rush of adrenaline that counteracts the tediousness of replaying the same game area over and over again!
Stay tuned for more details.

OUR NEXT GAME
BEAUTIFUL DESOLATION
www.desolationgame.com
Several years ago we had an idea for an adventure story set in a post-apocalyptic world. During our brain storming sessions, we kept circling back to a particular story. It was pushed to the sidelines while the STASIS story blossomed. But now that we want to do something different outside the STASIS universe, and still create an experience that fits into our niche of point-and-click, isomeric adventure games.
[HIGH RES IMAGES ARE ON THE DESOLATION WEBSITE]
BEAUTIFUL DESOLATION will push our game design and graphic production further, and it's a process that we want you to be a part of yet again.
We will have more information on the crowd-funding of BEAUTIFUL DESOLATION but until then, please visit the site, watch and share the video and enjoy these early screenshots.

CAYNE ANNOUCEMENT & STEAM SUMMER SALE
Hey Guys,

I am happy to announce CAYNE @ www.playcayne.com

"Hadley wakes in a facility. She is 9 months pregnant. They want her baby..."
When the dust settled after STASIS, Nic and I knew that the journey wasn't quite over. After spending 5 years with our dear John and the search for his family aboard the Groomlake, we weren't ready to leave the grimy world of Cayne Corporation behind.
So when it came to CAYNE (the additional chapter we'd promised to our Backers) we wanted to do something different. John's story was a small sliver of what the world of STASIS had to offer, and how exciting and rewarding it is to be able to explore a little further... to slice open that seedy underbelly and see what's inside!
CAYNE is a self-contained story. There are threads from STASIS, tethering the two together, while still letting exist apart from one another.
IT IS FREE!
The decision to make CAYNE free to the public was one that we went back and forth on, but we'd love to introduce a taste of STASIS to new audiences. And how better to showcase our new engine framework and what we can do with it?
So look forward to the high quality games that THE BROTHERHOOD plans to produce in the future.
Alongside the release of CAYNE, we plan on crowd funding an entirely new adventure game.
Please head over to the website for more info and updates.

STASIS WINS ADVENTURE GAME OF THE YEAR!
To celebrate, we have applied a 25% discount (35% for DELUXE) for this Easter break! If you haven't played the Best Adventure Game of 2015, then get to it now on STEAM!
Every year, 'adventuregamers' celebrates the Aggies, the pinnacle of adventure game awards.
STASIS featured in no less than 5 categories, including BEST ADVENTURE GAME and BEST TRADITIONAL ADVENTURE GAME.
The highlights of this 22nd century tale are almost too numerous to detail: There’s a rich backstory of human corruption to unearth, but also a surprising number of individual stories to delve into - each with its own personal perspective. The sprawling levels of the near-derelict research ship the Groomlake are gorgeously presented using the criminally-underused isometric viewpoint, the soundscape is thoroughly authentic, the music sparse but atmospheric, the interface stylish and cleverly implemented (including the why-don’t-more-games-do-this conceit of displaying full text commentary when simply hovering over hotspots – why waste mouse clicks?), and the puzzles slickly integrated into a very intuitive gameplay experience.
We could go on, but you get the idea. A whopping five years in the making by largely one man, STASIS may not be without flaws, but it’s a thoroughly compelling adventure that everyone should play. Chris Bischoff has given himself a ridiculously hard act to follow, taking home our much-deserved Game of the Year Aggie Award for 2015, but here’s hoping that we see plenty more from this talented developer in future.
You can find all the winners here: http://www.adventuregamers.com/articles/view/29966
Get it now at 25% off.
PS
If you would like to play in Turkish, feel free to upgrade to the latest BETA - this will be official soon but you can play it right now!
