Well it's that time of year folks. That beautiful period of time in which a large proportion of us partake in a bunch of pagan traditions and make savvy purchases in the Steam Sale.
Funny coincidence. Did you know that The Unlikely Prometheus is in the sale at 25% off?
Go on, treat yourself. We wont tell anyone.
Achievements - 16/12/2023
We have just implemented achievements so that you can track your progress and brag to your friends!
If you hit the achievement point for later achievements you will also gain any prior achievements for earlier acts.
The update may cause save files to have issues loading. If this happens to you there is a "Legacy" branch available in the betas section. The legacy branch is the pre-achievement version of the game and will have no issues with saves made prior to the update.
If you need to access the legacy branch right click the game in your library and select properties, select betas and you will see the legacy branch listed.
We hope you enjoy this early xmas present!

It's Getting Cold Outside so Maybe Stay Inside and Play a Game
Hi All
So the game is out and folks are playing it which we are extremely happy about.
If you find yourself enjoying the game we would like to ask you to leave a review to warm our cold black hearts a little over this chilly winter season.
And whilst you putting in the hours having Fritz rub items together we would also ask you to report any bugs you find because as a small team of barely educated Northerners there is likely a few missed errors here and there.
The Unlikely Prometheus is Here
So it's been a little while, almost 2 years, but the game is actually finished and ready for release.
The Unlikely Prometheus is now live and you can enjoy all our lovingly crafted puns and ground breaking point and click action... Ok it's actually pretty standard point and click action but at least its out at last.
We're Back!
Howdy All.
So it's been a little while since the game jam ended and the team have been having a well earned break.
But now we're back and as you can see we have a Steam page for The Unlikely Prometheus which can mean only two things.
Firstly, we intend to release a full version of the game.
Secondly, one of us was mad enough to go through the faff of setting up a creator account on Steam and start looking into how to sort out accounting between multiple countries if this project takes off and people buy the game.
So know we know we're doing this we figured we would take a little time to go through with you what we are actually planning.
At the end of the game jam we put the game up on Itch.io at https://stressederik.itch.io/the-unlikely-prometheus.
For a Steam release we wanted to expand Fritz's story, shoehorn in some more bad jokes and take a look at the "Things that would be nice but we don't have time for" section of the jam design board to see what is feasible to add now that we do have time.
To that end we've started to review the current state of the code, map out the rest of the story and get some more art on the go.
