And it's been two years since the release of our first game, ARIDA: Backland's Awakening!
In celebration, we have a big update on Steam!
The first new feature is a digital artbook that we made with all the love for you!
We had no idea how much work it is to make a book, but it was an amazing experience.
There are more than 100 pages dedicated to behind the scenes at Aoca, with concepts, research and lots of fun facts about the creation of ARIDA 1, as well as exclusive details of our next game, ARIDA 2: Rise of the Brave!
We will soon have the physical version of this book for collectors!
We want to keep spreading ARIDA to the world, and that's why we localized it for the German, Russian, Chinese and Spanish languages, which join the Portuguese and English versions.
We also made improvements in optimization, balancing, fixing some bugs, and making improvements for the movements and the camera. All from your feedbacks!
Oh, and there's a new achivement for the completionist people!!
The update launch promotion is 70%. If you already have ARIDA, here's the tip for an early Christmas gift!

Be strong, have the faith and wisdom to explore the drought-stricken regions and find out more about her destiny.
Equipped to venture out
To survive in the backlands you will need some equipment. Use the machete and hoe for essential actions such as getting water, opening paths or cutting a corn crop. But do not forget to have a handful of grindstones because blunt equipment is of no use!Get ready with recipes
To live in the backlands you need to be wise. The fauna and flora are unusual, so try to learn the recipes available for crafting with the typical items of the region. Maybe one day you need to cross the backlands ...Interact to survive
Hunger and thirst can be very cruel in the backlands during the drought. Ask for help for the elders of your village and solve their quests to get some water and food.Explore to know
Explore the aridest regions to learn more about the backlands and find the resources you need to stay on your way. A full inventory is always a good idea!Stories to learn
The Brazilian Backlands is a special place, with many stories that would only happen there. Venture out to search for the collectible lost objects and find out more about the legends of the backlands.The drought this time came much stronger and changed the daily life here in backlands. Many plantations were lost, animals died and families abandoned their homes. It is in this scenario that Cícera lives, a curious young girl who uses the advice of her grandfather and other villagers to learn how to survive and strengthen herself to face the drought and realize her greatest dream: exploring the backlands to reunite with her parents.
