VIDEOVERSE will be taking part in Summer Game Fest 2023 during the #FutureOfPlay direct by GLITCH! The direct launches on Saturday June 10th at 11am ET / 5pm CEST, so keep an eye out to see some new footage of VIDEOVERSE! [previewyoutube=03WtP_HZ1Co;full][/previewyoutube] On Steam, there will also be a stream of the game (with a brand new trailer!) from today until June 17th, where you can watch me play the demo and talk about game development. I hope you'll enjoy it, and please let me know if you have any questions or want to learn more about the game. steamhappy Yesterday, during the Best Indie Games Summer Showcase, I announced that the narrator in VIDEOVERSE is Mark Takeshi Ota. You may recognise his voice from LIVE A LIVE and as Ryunosuke from The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles: [previewyoutube=cOgc1Gaken0;full][/previewyoutube] It has been a pleasure working with him and I can't wait for you all to hear his full performance once the game launches soon. Until then, the updated demo is available to play for free, and I am very close to finalising a release date, which I hope to share with you in the next few weeks!

Help Videoverse thrive and survive!
Take a trip back to the days of the early internet and fan forums, when the video game console "Kinmoku Shark" and its online social network "Videoverse" were still popular...
VIDEOVERSE is a 1-bit love letter to old-school social gaming networks where you play as Emmett, a video game-obsessed teenager. In this narrative adventure game, you’ll browse community pages, share artwork, make friends and report trolls to help this retro-inspired social network become a better place for everyone.
Will your actions help Videoverse thrive or will you get caught up in teenage dramas, video game fandoms and corporate conspiracies?
Videoverse features:
- A decision-based narrative adventure that can be enjoyed in around 6 hours
- A chill, retro-inspired soundtrack composed by Clark Aboud (Slay the Spire, Kind Words)
- A nostalgic throwback to retro social networks like MSN messenger, Miiverse and online message boards
- Original artwork and 1-bit pixel animations
