2023 Recap

It has been a wonderful year for us. Starting with the feature in LudoNarraCon and then in Wholesome Direct, the game was discovered by thousands of new players.

Towards mid 2023, we got selected for the prestigious Microsoft Xbox IDAP which provided financial assistance for development and porting the game to Xbox consoles.
Soon after the team got selected to participate in Wings Elevate program sponsored by Netflix. This program provided wonderful mentorship opportunities as well as financial assistance for development.

Development of the full game is going on and is about to hit the finish line soon. New release trailer is ready but you'll need to wait for a release date announcement before we can show it. Join us on our Discord to follow the project and help us make the game better!
