One of the greatest national celebrations, Carnival was chosen as the period for carrying out Steam's first promotional campaign with full dedication to Brazilian games.

The Made in Brazil Sale takes place between the 18th and 23rd of February and has more than 500 titles!
Games already published, new releases and even titles that are yet to be released.

Conceived by Eduardo Lamhut, developer of the company from Rio de Janeiro, the action emerged after the mobilization of studios and teams from all regions of the country. A great demonstration of the growth and maturity of the national industry.

Unprecedented and officially approved by the platform, the campaign means highlighting Brazilian games in the most popular space: the Steam homepage, thus promoting consumption and the dissemination of titles.

RIDA is one of the games on the list, and with an 85% promotion it sees an opportunity to leverage its reach even further.

They are titles of different genres and themes! And with different discounts.
Take a look at the Steam store, identify the Brazilian games of your choice and strengthen the national games industry, either by buying titles for your library or adding them to your wish list.

We take the opportunity to bring great news about the future of Ccera and Aoca!

First, we were invited to participate in an editorial for #WeArePlay, Google Play's international blog dedicated to telling the stories of people who create apps and games around the world.

Google went with a film crew to Bahia, where they stayed for a few days recording with us, in Salvador, and also in the backlands, especially in the city of Canudos, where we were able to present the game.

[previewyoutube=jUU62x5Czcw;full][/previewyoutube]

The second opportunity, also announced last week, is related to the result of companies selected for Google Plays Indie Game Fund, an initiative that dedicated a total of U$ 2 million to promising game companies in Latin America.

With the investment we will be able to bring news to the game, in addition to a business structure that aims to take Aoca and RIDA to a level not reached before!

By subscribing to the newsletter you will receive cute letters made directly by the characters from the backlands of ARIDA, with news of how things are going there and information about we are creating for RIDA: Rise of the Brave!

https://mailchi.mp/8922d4b18b55/arida-mail

Who played RIDA: Backland's Awakening experienced a little of the importance of the banners in Ccera's journey.

Now, in RIDA: Rise of the Brave, this importance unfolds in new information that connects to our protagonist's dream: crossing the backlands on foot to find the village of Canudos.

Banners are symbols used in many contexts, almost always as allegories of beauty, guidance, and devotion. Critically embroidered or made in a stripped-down manner with a piece of cloth, they hold the history and identity of a group of people.

[previewyoutube=6Az9Ljtusfo;full][/previewyoutube]

In RIDA: Rise of the Brave we will apply new visual techniques that will give more life to these elements, which will also have other symbols and other colors.

When you are in the company of Ccera and Titela inside the backlands, do not ignore the presence of the banners. They say more than our eyes can see.

As we did during the development of the previous game, now with ARIDA: Rise of the Brave we will use Discord to bring our community into Aoca.

The previous experience was great! People from around the world helped us with development by reporting bugs, giving opinions on choices or simply getting to know more about the people who make Aoca exist.

We learned a lot about how we can improve interaction with you, so we changed the structure of the server. But, of course, your feedbacks are more than necessary!

We will continue the posts on our social networks, but if you want to be closer to the universe of RIDA and have access to exclusive content, our server at Discord is your place!

[h2]Changes require transformations.
Or is it the other way around? [/h2]

Whoever played ARIDA: Backland's Awakening knows that Ccera faces a challenge of great proportions.
A condition that questions the limits of what it means to be a child in the Brazilian backlands of the 19th century.

The new game in development, RIDA: Rise of the Brave, will have some transformations as well. The central experience that defines the world of RIDA remains, but we will present new ways to dive into this connection with the backlands and its stories.



After all, we at Aoca are also constantly changing. Learning to leverage what we do best and adjusting where we need to grow. Very tuned with the feedbacks from people playing ARIDA around the world.

In this moment of global changes, we remain focused on creating this new game, with the conviction that it will be another beautiful path that we will create together!

Many people already have RIDA: Rise of the Brave on their Steam wishlist. Go there and show us some love.
This is the best way to put more and more people in contact with the new RIDA!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1212030/ARIDA_Rise_of_the_Brave/

[h2]Survive the challenges of the backlands is the least you will need to do.[/h2]

In ARIDA: Rise of the Brave, in addition to survive to overcome the drought and cross the backlands, you will need to find the clues that will take Ccera to Canudos. The place where dreams dwell, according to some.

There will be new and bigger areas to explore, other stories to discover and new connections that will be made by our brave protagonist.

The paths of Ccera will intersect with those of this formidable little goat named Titela, and from the difficulties of this journey, a strong bond of friendship will be born.



Titela is very cute! A goat still very young, a little flustered and quite loyal. Dont judge his strength by his size.

He's beloved at Aoca and we believe you will fall in love too.

Hey everyone!

We are still working to make the rida experience better and better. That's why we released an update today to fix issues identified by you! We at Aoca thank everyone for the constant feedback we received!

Check out the full list of Patch 1.0.3


Optimization
We made improvements in the game engine, resulting in a better framerate, especially for those who were struggling to play with better graphic qualities. If you still encounter problems running the game, please contact us via the Steam forum.


Sound Fixes
We balanced the volume of some sounds that were not consistent with the desired experience. And we add others. We also fixed some SFXs that didn't play when they should, and added more typical backland birds, which makes the ambience better!


Achievements
We fixed some Steam achievements. You will now receive the notifications correctly. Will you be able to complete them all?


Scene Improvements
We made adjustments to some transitions of the scenes. In this way, important moments of the game became visually smoother.


Languages
We reviewed the text in both available languages, and now everyone in the backlands speaks properly, in English and Portuguese!
If you still find something in the texts, feel free to contact us.

If you find any errors, report them through a Steam thread.
Tell us what you think about the news!

The Autumn Steam Sale is happening and rida wouldn't be out, right?
It's 30% off for a limited time.

If you haven't played yet, here's your chance!

If you have already played, consider gifting a friend with this backland trip!

We are in our first sale on Steam!

After two months after its release, rida: Backland's Awakening joined Halloween Steam Sale 2019 !

It's a 23% discount! A big push for those who haven't played rida yet!

Go fast because the saleis for a limited time!

The goat is the main animal of the backlands. On Trip to backlands / Make of Firminas goats, we talked about Firminas ones. Now, throughout this text we will talk about the village goats, which are not assigned to a quest, enriching the ambiance of the game and call attention when seen, always roaming the world.

During the process of creating the Village level, we had the feeling that there was some aesthetic gap in that space. Somehow, it was necessary to think about elements (sound, visual or even compositional), which could give a balance between keeping the narrative proposal of the place aligned, while still giving more life and ambience to the level.

The presence of goats circulating around the village grew in this process. We started to use more of their movements, positions, and characteristics, exploring the possibilities of artificial intelligence in a slightly more autonomous way, also allowing a comical side of these formidable animals (which we could verify in some goats we found during our research trip to the backlands).

It is quite possible that when the player is exploring the village, suddenly: "Oops!", a goat appears performing its daily activities. And in this moment of unpredictability, our goats resemble the real backlands goats.

And that is why we love them, as well as many people who play rida.

rida is now available on Steam!
Go get your copy and share with us your experience with the goats. But be aware that they may appear in the most unlikely places!

Here we are very proud to announce that Arida has been selected as a finalist in 4 categories at the SBGames Festival 2019!

The categories are: "Best Game", "Best Design", "Best Storytelling" and "Best Sound".
SBGames is one of the most consolidated events in Latin America, scheduled for 28-31 October, in the city of Rio de Janeiro.

A big step for Arida and Aoca and you all are part of it! Thanks a lot !!!

During this first month of Aridas launch, we need to thank all of you who embarked on this journey with us, helping the project take a bigger and bigger projection. We received very nice support, from the earliest materials to the last tests before the Steam release!

As we have already mentioned, Arida is Aoca's first game and the first commercial game from all of us. We're learning in this process, with your help and your feedback. We always make everything with love and respect for you, because you are the reasons for Arida to exist!

If you haven't played yet, go to Steam and help us. If you can't afford it, put it on your wishlist and share it with your friend. Everyone is welcome!

We'll release updates for Arida: Backland's Awakening, and soon we will drop more info on the sequel!

And let's go together one more time! This time louder, this time farther! <3


A very special thanks from Aoca Game Lab, for you all!
