[h2]Hello Martians![/h2]

We have big news! On Mars, We have been working on a secret project these last months:
Mutropolis is now fully compatible with the gamepad of the Steam Deck and can be played with touch. It also now supports playing the game with gamepad on Windows and macOs.

We've been testing it with the help of M.A.X. It's not easy to press all those little buttons when you have tiny, mechanical hands. Not to mention the rambling feedback received by our little robot. All his notes started with "Not enough cat memes".

But we finally got it ready for release. Mutropolis now fully supports the Steam Deck.



Yours,
Bea & Pablo

[h2]Greetings, Martians![/h2]

We're full of the warm and fuzzies today - no, not because we've been sneaking Totel's secret stash of 'mulled champagne' again - but because Mutropolis has won the award for the Best Traditional Adventure Game in the Aggie Awards, presented by AdventureGamers.com.

Hmm, maybe we need that mulled champagne after all!

The team at Adventure Gamers stated that Mutropolis has been able to 'tap into the best elements of the past while benefiting from everything the present has to offer'.




It's 'a game that proves there's still a wealth of riches to be excavated from the point-and-click format and offers plenty of hope for what lies ahead.'

High praise indeed, and we are incredibly thankful for their kind words! Read their full post here, and take a look at all the other winners from various categories.



This isn't the only thing we're celebrating though... Spring is almost here and it's almost time to hang up the coats and gloves. That's why.... It's time for pre-spring announcements!

[h3]Mutropolis Gets Trading Cards[/h3]

Trading cards and community items are coming to Mutropolis on Steam! It's a long-awaited feature from many of the community here and we're really pleased to share a number of awesome trading cards and other items for you to collect. Take a look at some of these samples below!



In the set you will find:

• Exclusive new backgrounds, full of adorable relics from a world before the apocalypse.
  
• The badges, shiny medals for the brave archaeologist.
  
• Trading cards, cute images of our beloved characters in action.
  
• And 5 brand new emoticons. Harolyn, the mighty guardian of Mutropolis and emoticons speaker, asked us for them months ago. She wanted to expand her vocabulary.

[h2]Hello Martians![/h2]

You asked, and we delivered! With the newest update, youll be able to press the space bar when feeling lost, and the game will automatically highlight spots that you can interact with.

We didnt implement a highlight function for launch because we thought most hotspots were relatively easy to locate. However, we agree with you that its always best to be able to double-check and make sure you havent missed anything important. We believe that every click should carry weight and propel the story forward. Pixel hunting isnt fun, and we certainly dont want Mutropolis to be a hunt-the-pixel game.

Remember: As you progress in Mutropolis, new hotspots will appear in areas youve visited before. If youd rather discover everything on your own, just avoid hitting the space bar. ;-)



Here are some more fixes that will also go live with the new update:

• Sound improvements and adjustments
  
• An animation fix
  
• Correction of a few typos in various languages
  
• Menu interface improvements
  

Thank You!

[h2]Hey Martians,[/h2]

First of all, we want to thank you all for your wonderful feedback and continuous support. We love watching your reactions and going through your reviews. Reading the things that made you laugh or the puzzles that made you think has been incredible.

As Henry and the rest of the gang are searching for clues, we thought wed take this opportunity to talk about the inception and early development of Mutropolis.


[h2]How It All Started[/h2]
Pablo and I were both working for video game companies when we met. He had a fine arts background, and I worked as a graphic designer. From time to time, wed both get involved in tasks related to graphics and game design.

For many years, we worked on several independent video games that never saw the light of day. We then decided to start our own project, even without any programming knowledge. We struggled a lot at the beginning, but we managed to pull through.

[h2]Things Wed Change[/h2]
Were really happy with how things turned out, especially when it comes to art design. That being said, we werent the most efficient developers by any means.

If we knew how big a project Mutropolis would turn out to be, wed definitely allocate our time and resources more effectively. You guys would get to play the game much sooner.

Then again, our struggles and hardships shaped Mutropolis into what it is today. Would it be the same game if we had just breezed through it? I doubt it.

[h2]Just the Two of Us[/h2]
If theres one thing were proud of, its that we managed to develop the majority of the game on our own. Keeping the team tight forced us to work harder, but we also learned so much in the process.

That, of course, is only true for the first 4 years of development. With the invaluable help of Application Systems Heidelberg, we met partners who helped us bring the game to you. A big shout-out of course to the wonderful voice actors who brought our favorite characters to life!

The rest is history. Mutropolis is now a reality, and we couldve never done any of this without you!

Again, thank you, and happy puzzle-solving!!

Yours,
Bea & Pablo

[h2]Hey Martians,[/h2]

Our heroes have made it to Earth safely, but theres still plenty of time to spare before their adventure officially begins on the 18th.

Its still an awfully wet planet. Yes, its worse than I remember.

Those were Totels first words as he stepped out of the spaceship. Hes still adjusting, albeit slowlyhell be fine. Cobra meticulously sharpened her knives before hitting the gym. Carlata had a mini meltdown in front of everyone and is still locked in the toilet. Henry is already out and about, watching birds and searching for rare artifactsno surprise here.

Time is on our side. We want to take this opportunity to talk a bit about how Mutropolis came to be.

[hr][/hr]

[h3]A Futuristic Retrospective[/h3]



Mutropolis was a project born of passion. Five years ago, Pablo and I set to create something great that we could both be proud of. We soon realized we wanted to make our very own full and complete game. Mutropolis just clicked, and the rest is history. Of course, at the time, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into, but isnt that always part of the charm?

With just a few sketches at hand (and 0 programming experience), we set out to create a lovely sci-fi game that wouldhopefullycapture peoples hearts. The plan was simple: We would create the whole thing ourselvesbetween the two of ussharing the workload and cutting down on costs.

But a game engine can only get you so far; one of us would eventually have to learn how to code. Pablo was already interested in programming and rose to the challenge (even though he was the one with the Fine Arts background). While he kept himself busy with algorithms and endless lines of code, I was drawing and animating non-stop. Admittedly, it wasnt the most practical of approaches, but we made it workand had tons of fun in the process!

[h3]The Final Countdown[/h3]

Two years ago, we released the Mutropolis Mars Episodes on Itch.io, giving fans a taste of what was to come. We received warm feedback, and that pushed us to try even harder.

Eventually, we signed with a publisher, Application Systems Heidelberg. They helped us with the next big step: marketing the game and bringing it to new audiences.

Most recently, weve been hard at work trying to add full voiceover with a whole cast of talented actorsmission accomplished! Now, we are crushing the final bugs and are almost ready for release.


*Final bugs being crushed

In less than a week, Mutropolis will launch on Steam.
Were super-excited and cant wait to share our game with all of you!

Dont forget, theres still time to create your own adorable MAX papercraft, and share with us on social media. Our favourites may just win themselves a copy of the game for free!

Stay Awesome,
Bea & Pablo

[h2]Hello, Martians![/h2]

Mutropolis is set to release in less than two weeks, and we really cant contain our excitement! The lovely sci-fi adventure is coming to Steam on the 18th of February.

But were not the only ones who have been having trouble sleeping. Totel was last seen having one too many, buried neck-deep in books from the librarys Books on Earth section. Henrys gone birdwatching (again), and Micro has spent weeks trying to help Max update his video drivers. Our heroes might not be ready for the challenges that lie ahead, but the world cant waitand were sure you cant, either!


MAX on Mars (its a mango)

Hype to the Max

[h2]Hello Martians! [/h2]

To celebrate the start of the Steam Autumn sale, we are once again making the Mutropolis demo available on our Steam page for a limited time.

Download it here on the game page

[h2]This time around, however, there are some changes!
[/h2]

• The demo is now fully voiced in English, featuring the talents of all our incredible voice actors whom you may have seen on our social media.
  
• The new demo is now playable in multiple languages: English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Portuguese (BR) and Russian!
  

Mars, archaeology, ancient Egyptian gods, relics, spaceships, an abandoned earth, and geeky protagonists = a winning combination that puts a smile on our face.
Mutropolis focuses on the concept of misinterpreting history; how human beings love to craft exciting theories about how people lived in ancient Rome, how the pyramids were built, or how soft the hair of the mammoths was (thanks to DNA we can confirm that it was VERY, VERY soft).
Mutropolis places us directly in the action. 3000 years into the future, to be precise. On a wild planet Earth abandoned by humanity, at a time when humans have happily settled on Mars after a mysterious cataclysm has devastated the Earth. Along with a group of archaeologists, the player will be able to investigate inconceivable relics, ancient graffiti, the mummified remains of Jimmy Hoffa, strange animals, and new languages based on the dead language of emoticons.
Your steps through Mutropolis will lead you to investigate a forgotten planet Earth, but the background story of Mutropolis goes much, much further.

[h2]WE MARS[/h2]


Although the action takes place on Earth, Mars is a constant presence in the lives of our characters. Through their dialogues, belongings, and attitude we can find out about their lives on the Red Planet before they travelled to Earth.
Henry, our main character, grew up happily with his two Mothers in a modern farm near Mount Olympus. Cobra, the perpetually unpleasant partner of the group, became an archaeologist to escape the red planet along with her wealthy family. Meanwhile Totel, the old professor, had been looking for funding for decades for his most ambitious project: The search for Mutropolis.
Mars is present in the hearts of all the characters and is a protagonist in the story. A protagonist that, unfortunately, we dont get to know.

In order to show a part of this small world that we had in our heads, weve decided to develop a short prequel for Mutropolis. Here we can set free all the crazy ideas in our heads that lay the foundation of the story well tell in the final game.



[h2]MARS EPISODES[/h2]
We call the mini-game Mutropolis: Mars Episodes. The goal was to develop several small stories, all of them set on Mars, that would tell small fragments of the life of our protagonists; about their rural life on Mars, about the society, and about how the team that will later accompany us in Mutropolis met.
And that's how we started to design a prequel! For the moment, weve focused on Totel's story. It seemed like the right place to start, since hes the crazy scholar who started it all and brought the team together.



The game takes us to Mars, where Totel has to deliver a conference to raise funds for his long-awaited expedition to planet Earth. An influential group of scientists listen carefully (and with very little patience) to his arguments about the existence of the lost city.
This small adventure will allow players to dive a bit deeper into the world of Mutropolis, its history, its extravagance and its humour. We hope you enjoy it! Its totally FREE and you can play now:

In the last few months, life seems to have paused. Keeping social distance and having our masks ready to go, our little world as indie developers seems smaller than ever.
But in the solitude of our 2-person studio, with twitter and Skype as our only contact with the rest of the indie community, we continue to work at Mutropolis. Which, at least, makes us happy.
And we have a few news to share with all of you, readers of isolation!


[h2]VOICE OVER, BABY![/h2]


We've finally started the voice-over of Mutropolis! We can't deny it' s one of the areas we've been waiting for with the most enthusiasm. It's exciting to give voices to your beloved characters and see them come to life.
And thanks to the support of our Publisher, Application Systems Heidelberg, and our voiceover director, Alasdair Beckett-King, it is now a reality. We're still in the early stages, but we already have a pretty good idea of what Mutropolis will sound like - and it's lovely!
The casting has been an incredibly exciting, yet bittersweet experience. Especially if you have a delicate soul and hate having to make transcendental decisions (like having to choose between two very talented actors!).
We couldn't be happier with the way things are going. We hope that in a very short time we can start showing Mutropolis full of voices and present our talented actors to you.

[h2]GAMESCOM ONLINE[/h2]


No doubt more mixed feelings on this issue too! Pablo and I have been dreaming of going to Gamescom for years. We've come close to going on several occasions, but due to budget and/or schedule we hadn't been able to go. Ahem, yes. Mostly because of the budget.

But, thanks to ASH, this was our year! It breaks our hearts not to be able to physically attend the event, but we will try to enjoy the online format to the fullest.
Gamescom joins the list of events we've participated from the comfort of our homes, along with the Steam Summer Festival and EGX.
We're already working on what content we're going to show you. for more information, follow us on Twitter.


[h2]AND NOW, WHAT?[/h2]


There are already fewer milestones to reach before the release of the game.
Last month we finished the English translation. As Spanish speakers, we had built the script of the game in Spanish. And while it's a pleasure to write in your native language, most players (obviously not Spanish speakers) would not be able to enjoy the nuances of the Spanish version. That's why ASH suggested that the English version of the game had to be more than just a hired translation. With the vital collaboration of Alasdair Beckett-King, we built an improved and fresh English version.
We are currently working on fixing some unexpected bugs in the game's menus (they are always unexpected!), adding new graphics and optimizing performance.
We still have to start recording the voices, translate Mutropolis to other languages and start a last round of beta-testing.
We hope to be able to give a release date soon!

[h2]WE WERE SO YOUNG[/h2]

I am Bea, and together with Pablo, we are the developers of Mutropolis! It's been almost 5 years since these two naive devs opened their little Twitter account and set about working on the game. Back then, we had no dialogue, no characters and no story - just a couple of sketches and the crazy thought that we could do it all within a year and a half at most

HA-HA-HA. I laugh at your optimism, me from the past.

Although we had a casual interest in learning the ropes regarding programming, we became very excited when we discovered that an adventure game could be created without any such skills or investing a lot of money. The games industry is spoiled with options for creating an adventure game using an engine that guides you through the process, such as Adventure Creator (for Unity) or Visonaire Studio. We chose the latter as we found it the most accessible.



A custom engine to build an adventure game! What a great idea. It was perfect for us, a couple of illustrators who couldn't recognise a line of code, even if it were put in a police lineup. Despite our lack of programming experience, we did have some experience in videogames and had worked on several projects before as graphic designers. But never on our own.

[h2]FIRST CONTACT WITH THE REAL WORLD[/h2]

Our goal was to create the whole thing ourselves. Doing it this way, we would kept the costs under control, and any possible profits would be shared 50/50. We would work from the comfort of our home during our free time, and communication between us would be very easy.

Of course, Visionaire Studio would make things simpler, but it was still a challenge for two useless programmers.

When I mentioned about the programming earlier, perhaps I was not clear.
We didn't know how to program ANYTHING.

Despite the out-of-the-box tools at our disposal, it soon became clear we had potentially over-hyped our software. One of us was going to have to learn at least the basics of building a game using an engine. Which one of us would it be?
Pablo comes from a Fine Arts background and my own is in film and screenwriting. Neither of us seemed to have the right qualifications. With Pablos latent interest in programming piquing, he volunteered for the task (I dodged a bullet there).

We always thought that this might be the biggest challenge (and although we were correct, it didn't come alone). It took us a year to get comfortable with the engine and put together a decent demo.
Then we deleted the whole thing and started from scratch again. Fun!

[h2]NEW SKILLS FOR NON-STRATEGIC PEOPLE[/h2]

Looking back, I honestly think we did the distribution of tasks on a whim. I got to animate the characters even though I had never done anything like that before in my entire life... instead of using Pablo, who had been doing pixel art animations for mobile games for years! But what the hell, I just wanted to learn how to animate. As for Pablo, the only one who already knew how to do it, he wanted to program! Maybe we weren't that practical, but we were able to enjoy the process.

Lets not forget that Pablo was the Fine Arts graduate. My interest in drawing started as a hobby and ended up as a profession. I had no professional training, which made me very insecure from the very beginning.

I don't consider myself a great expert in drawing scenes. I've always specialized in creating characters and I was happy with that. But with Pablo overwhelmed with the titanic task of learning how to assemble the game, it was on me to take over the graphics of Mutropolis.



I postponed designing scenery and settings for as far as I could. I remember that at first, I went crazy drawing characters. I managed to get Pablo out of his programming bubble on occasion to help me do the scenery sketches. In return, I made a commitment to learn the engine as well to help him with the more mundane tasks (like setting up the technical scenes).

[h2]THE FINAL RESULT[/h2]

In the end we got a very good balance. Pablo would draw for me on a sheet of paper the basic lines of the most difficult scenarios. Having a base, I was able to work from it. And vice versa, I was able to help him manage the engine and dedicate myself to setting up each scenario from scratch while he did the more complex programming.

The concept of the game was created by just the two of us. It was definitely one of the parts we enjoyed the most. We'd sit down and discuss what was going to happen in the plot and then I'd start writing like crazy, using my notebook full of ideas.

Eventually we began to realize that we were making the game entirely between the two of us, and fulfilling our original plan! Both of us doing art, writing, programming and whatever it took.

There are still times when I don't remember which one of us came up with an idea for the game, or who made the first sketch of that scenario or who made a joke that still makes me smile.

It is true that there are certain areas that have been exclusively authored by one of us. Pablo is 100% the creator of the game music, another skill he had to learn on the fly. It might be the only decision we made wisely, since at least he had some musical training. I devoted myself body-and-soul to learning how to animate and design the characters. The rest is a fog of authorship.



Five years ago, the mad idea of making a game between two people who only knew how to draw crossed our minds. In the process, we had to learn how to do everything else.

One last thing we didn't expect either, we were going to have to speak in public! A nightmare for an introvert. Not to mention for two!

Beatriz and Pablo (Pirita Studio) will have a chat with Volker (ASHGAMES). We introduce the team and talk about the inspiration and ideas behind Mutropolis.
We show concept art and play the game a bit. A lot of behind the scenes content is waiting for you. We will answer questions in the chat.
