Hi friends, hope youre doing well! Its already the beginning of a new month, and you know the drill: its time for a new recap! [hr][/hr]

Celebrating Black History Month

APICO took part in Humble's Exceptional Indie Allies Bundle, along with 6 other amazing games, to celebrate Black History Month and raise money for NPower. Big thanks to everyone who supported the cause - so far youve helped raise over $25,000! (Also if youre quick you can still grab the bundle today!) [hr][/hr]

LVE JAM 2024

Ell took a little week break from finishing APICOs Honeycore Update to join this years LVE game jam with their submission, Synthesis! In Ells own words; [quote=ellraiser]this year the theme was interface so you know I had to! I wanted to make a bit of an abstract puzzle game where the player isn't taught any controls and has to learn through trial and error, and I'm happy with how it all ended up! It was also my first time making music for a game so... enjoy that lol[/quote]
You can try out the jam game over on itch.io here! [hr][/hr]

Whitethorn Winter

Whitethorn Games, APICOs publisher, held a celebration of gaming across all the games in their catalogue through a showcase and Steam event (you can catch the vod here) While we didnt have anything to show, there was some nice sneak peaks at our sibling games, like Magical Delicacy and Botany Manor! [hr][/hr]

Final Countdown

Its been a bit of a slow year so far, with not much to share while Ell plugs away at finishing the final update, however we have got some lovely things planned for the 4.0 launch to look forward to, so be sure to keep an eye out. Well also havs the Steam Spring Sale coming very soon (March 14th!) with the deepest discount to-date for APICO and the soundtracks, so a perfect time to pick up APICO and catch up with everything before the last update [hr][/hr] Aaand that was February at TNgineers! As always, thank you so much for your support <3 Take care! Manon, Ell and Jamie

Snacktorio is a factory-cooking simulator where you must satisfy the appetites of unspeakable horrors... with food! Build and manage sprawling networks of machines & pipes to mass produce delicious meals that can satiate the endless hunger of the beasts that are invading your home. Order Up!

As one of the remaining chefs in your tribe, the responsibility of maintaining the balance with the monsters through the tasty medium of food has fallen on your grubby lil hands. Can you turn the tide on the ever growing threat of invasion, while proving your status as a Witchelin Star chef?

• Factory simulation in a 2D platforming setting
  
• Explore and mine for ores, resources, and spices
  
• Mass-produce food through automated cooking machines
  
• Take & fufill orders from all sorts of insatiable hangry beasts
  
• Build and manage networks of pipes to get ingredients where they need to be
  
• Experience all the stress of managing a restaurant without any of the pay!

This game is being created by indie dev duo TNgineers, (Ell and their brother Jamie), inspired by their love of factory simulation games.

They wanted to make something satisfyingly complex without using the same tired sci-fi theme for the genre, and dive into how different recipes could be made in interesting ways when using an RPG-esque setting.
