The last few weeks have been incredibly exciting for the team behind The Gardens Between. We have been awarded MAC GAME OF THE YEAR and AUSTRALIAN GAME OF THE YEAR!
It is so incredible to be recognised for all of the effort we put in over the last four years of development. We are so touched by all of the support. Be it a tweet from a fan of the game or a big nod from Apple, our heart skips a beat. Its as though theres this momentary spark of personal connection with whoever we are hearing from. Like we are felt, understood, and we belong. As though you all know and own a piece of us, like a friendship, understated and subtle... just like our game :)
Its such an unbelievable honour to have so many people loving the game, someone pinch me, am I dreaming? Especially since when we started The Voxel Agents TEN YEARS AGO (woah!) we were operating from a tiny corner of an office building, an old fire escape at the end of the hallway. We were right near the bathroom, practically in it. Everyone would have to walk past us to relieve themselves (the horror!).
From those awkward beginnings, so much has happened, so much has been achieved, but we are still as awkward as ever. Im just hoping adorably so :P
