Miniatures 25% off

It's Miniatures first seasonal sale! And we're celebrating it with 25% off For those of you who are curious about this strange little game, here's a visual explanation of what the game is: [previewyoutube=3Tma3zvYOoM;full][/previewyoutube] And a written one: Play four standalone point-and-click stories, each with a different main character. Follow four children and try to make sense of their experience of an adult world. One character is assembling furniture with his family and as the family's disfunction becomes more apparent, something starts creeping in Another character is searching for her missing mother in a desolate archipelago and she needs to decide what to make of what she finds A third character is playing pretend with the inhabitants of a sand castle and is unaware of the fragility of life The fourth is left home alone and the forced isolation upends his reality How will you interpret these stories? We also want to take the opportunity to wish you happy holidays See you next year! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2428840/Miniatures/ ~ The Others

We present to you: Other Tales' Tales! /

Our first developer bundle! We're now a company that has made more than one game! It's been five years since the release of Tick Tock: A Tale for Two and we're still in awe about the reception you've given our very first game... Now Miniatures is out too! And we've put these two story-driven games in a discounted bundle for you: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/46610/Other_Tales_Tales/ Other Tales' Tales consists of our strange worlds Miniatures and Tick Tock: A Tale for Two. The first is a single-player, short story collection told through the lense of children making sense of an adult world. The second is a two-player, co-op game where your communication skills are put to the test. They are both atmospheric, hand-drawn, point-and-click games with a touch of magic. We hope you find something to love in both! ~ The Others

Miniatures is out!

We cant believe it... Its been five years since the release of our first game, and four years since we started working on Miniatures. Its fun to look back on the stories that didnt make the cut, the prototypes that didnt stick with us or didnt fit in with the rest. Because now the final four stories are finished, wrapped, and put in a box. Ready for you to open! https://youtu.be/3Tma3zvYOoM Thanks to everyone for your continued support and we hope you love this strange little collection that is Miniatures as much as we do! To celebrate the release Miniatures is 10% off! ~ The Others

Miniatures - Wings Award Winner at A MAZE.

We are so excited to have won the Wings Award at A MAZE. this weekend! Thanks to A MAZE. for a wonderful event and thanks to Wings for this award
We are honoured to be part of the amazing nominees at A MAZE., make sure to check them out here: https://store.steampowered.com/sale/amaze-berlin-2024 This laudation from Astrid at Wings made us smile: "This game invites the player to explore a small and intimate world through simple tasks and chores. What begins as play and wonder of a child soon becomes dark and filled with secrets. What the game teaches you of simple, joyful puzzles suddenly becomes actions of broken trust and arguments. With its hand-drawn art, well-designed audio, and occasional laughter of a child the game creates its own world where the player soon finds themselves caring for the characters whose faces and words they have not yet heard." Thanks for seeing the details and small wonders of Miniatures ~ The Others
