Goblinz Studio is publishing As Far As The Eye, a game developed by Unexpected. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1119700/As_Far_As_The_Eye/

When great minds meet

We met the Unexpected team during Paris Games Week and immediately saw the potential of the game. The team needed a few months to make it even better and stronger. We felt our expertise in making witty, community-centric games could fit very well with their project. Goblinz and Unexpected have the same ideals: We believe that this industry needs more games about living in harmony with nature, about non-violence. We want games that help you think and understand new dynamics with an ecological mindset. A FATE is totally that, a game where youre natures friend and co-exist with it peacefully. Check A FATE steam page to get more details about the game and wishlist it! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1119700/As_Far_As_The_Eye/

Goblinz Plans

We now manage 5 upcoming games you can find on our Publisher Page [link]. We try to support every game the same. Were dedicated to produce them with a fair consideration to team situations. We give them all the best chance of success! Noticeably, weve added a few months of production to A Long Way Down to increase quality. Snowtopia is on a good track to be a great game that gets regular updates. Iris And The Giant gets a Unity port to improve future plans. Legend of Keepers reached a 95% positive review and Top 4 free games on Steam for October. A new game means some changes in the organization, and a team update! Carla will be joining us a QA Manager. She will help us test thoroughly the game, record screenshots and gifs for social media. Welcome her kindly! Cheers, Goblinz.

[ 2019-11-27 14:17:37 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello there! At first, we wanted to release Iris And The Giant on Steam in October or November 2019. We decided to change the development rhythm and temporarly hire Antonin from Subtle Games (who made Seeds of Resilience). He will port the whole game to Unity.

Why this port?

Adobe Air is a bit clunky to work with. It works, but porting games into consolescan be hard. Louis is not a coder by heart (although he's good at it) and didn't feel he would do the whole Unity port by himself. We (Goblinz) wanted to take this off his shoulders. Here's a list of things this Adobe air > Unity port will allow:

• Better data and level management
• Better framerate & optimization
• Potentially more visual effects and polish through Unity's capabilities
• Future potential ports to Switch & other consoles
• Faster bug-fixing, content updates & build push after release
• It's a tool we already use for all other productions so we know our way around it. Or we can easily find people to work on it (compared to Adobe Air)

We think it will take a few months and allow for a PC release of Iris and The Giant before Summer 2020. Thank you for waiting. We're doing this because the game really deserves a flawless, fluid experience on many platforms!

[ 2019-11-12 14:35:10 CET ] [ Original post ]

We are proud to announce the game will be translated in Japanese and Korean! Some screenshots from the current version:


You will be able to test the game for the Tokyo Game Show & BitSummit!
