Thank you for playing Unwording!

Hi all!

Now that it's been a week since the launch, I just wanted to leave a quick message of thanks, for playing the game, for the lovely response and the reviews, and for making the launch week such a success!

This was a small and personal project, so the positive reception the game has received has been beyond my expectations. It makes me super happy to hear that the themes have resonated with you all - that is mainly why I make games!

Unwording is OUT NOW!!

Hi everyone!

I'm happy to announce that after over a year of work, Unwording is finally out! :)

The game launches at $4.99, with a 10% discount - so if you've been interested in the game, the best time to get it would be now! It also really helps in getting the game picked up by Steam's algorithm if it's bought (and reviewed!) in the first 24 hours. This would be SUPER helpful and appreciated!

Thank you for all the support - this has been quite a personal game with a lot of learnings from my own life and experiences, and I sincerely hope you like the game and that it resonates with you!

Lastly, below is the launch trailer. And if you need help with anything, or just want to get in touch, drop me a mail at armaan@frostwoodinteractive.com

Unwording devlog #2 - back to work, and working on improvements

Hi everyone!

Thank you for playing the Unwording demo and for all the helpful feedback. A few days after releasing the demo, I had to leave for a conference and an extended trip to the UK - talks with publishers, networking, and a little bit of vacation afterward!

Refreshed, motivated, and filled with new ideas, I'm back home and ready to get back to development. The first thing I shall be getting to is working on all the feedback I've received so far. The two major points are -

Slow performance during puzzles, esp when rotating cubes, and
Confusion/ lack of clarity regarding the game's objectives.
Look out for an update in the coming few days, and give the demo a shot if you haven't yet!
