Newsletter #21 October 2020


Hello everyone! This month, we released not one, but two games on the Nintendo Switch! We also have a couple of nice announcements coming up, so please, read on.

New praise on Along the Edge and Seers Isle!


We received a fresh round of great critiques on both Along the Edge and Seers Isle! Here comes a selection of noteworthy quotes and evaluations: "A visual novel that stands shoulder to shoulder with the giants of the genre, Along the Edge is a fantastic and fantastical story thats delivered eloquently and masterfully. 9/10." Sean Davies, Along the Edge Review A Beautiful, Mature & Engrossing Tale, Finger Guns. "I could recommend Seers Isle to any lover of story and European myths and legends. If you enjoyed Across the Grooves or other visual novels such as Cinders and Doki Doki Literature Club, I would recommend giving Seers Isle a chance. 9/10", Lainey Penzer, Seers Isle Review, Bonus Stage.
To round this up, Across the Grooves just received a very nice review from a young and promising French website, Pod' Culture. You can read it here: "Across the Grooves : heureux, qui comme Alice, a fait un beau voyage" (in French). Last but not least, we were very proud to get a very nice article about our work in the print version of "Les Inrockuptibles", a French culture magazine, penned by Erwan Higuinen (as depicted/teased in the photograph here below). An online version is also available here for subscribers: "Nova-box, le franais qui plie le game des jeux vido narratifs" (in French).

What have we been up to?


Well, as you can see, we've kept ourselves quite busy. We've also started working on our next title, currently in the pre-production phase, which means lots of designing and budget--crunching, but also some new visual art. It's way too early to talk in detail about this new project, but let us share one of the first concept arts with you, hoping it will catch your eyes and your curiosity.
Also, we welcomed our new art intern, Julie Vidal, earlier this month. You can check out her impressive portfolio on ArtStation. Please note that our communications might be a bit more infrequent for a while, until we're ready to properly unveil the ins and outs of our next endeavor. Thats all for now, see you next time!

  • Across the Grooves is an interactive graphic novel, set in a magical-realism universe. Your decisions affect the destiny of Alice, drastically changing her reality and allowing her to explore alternative destinies by modifying her past.



    Alice lives an uneventful life. She’s in a long term relationship, has a stable office job and a nice apartment in the center of Bordeaux. One day, Ulysse, her ex-lover, comes back into her life through an old vinyl record she receives in the mail. When she puts it for a spin on turntable, she is thrown back into her own past, forced to relive old events. When she comes back to the present, her reality has changed.

    Determined to bring her life back on track, Alice packs up and embarks on a hunt across Europe, following the tracks of Ulysse while trying to uncover the origins of the record. However, her journey gradually turns into a quest of self-discovery as she explores new parallel realities each time she puts the needle in the groove.




    • A hand-crafted adventure — With each playthrough, discover a novel-sized adventure and a slice of the hundreds of hand-drawn images created for the game.
    • Every choice matters — Each decision you make slightly alters the personality of the main character, Alice.
    • An invitation to travel — Feel the pulse of European cities, meet colourful characters and solve the mystery, all depicted in gorgeous European comic book art style.
    • Immersive and finely crafted soundtrack — The music adapts and shifts according to your choices and the mood of each scene.
    • High replayability — Choose Alice’s fate and discover the outcome of your decisions through multiple story paths and endings.
