Hi everyone,
despite my best efforts in the year that has passed since release, Syzygy has remained an extremely obscure game with few and sparse sales only at launch and during discounts.
I have failed completely at promotion, for which I certainly have not a natural talent but a strong aversion.
Nevertheless, I worked hard on Syzygy for many years because I wanted to create something that could genuinely surprise and lift the spirit of those who play it, but now seeing that less than a hundred people were willing to engage in the experience is most painful.
I want to believe that Syzygy is worth playing and that the only obstacle that separates it from people who might enjoy it is an issue of discoverability.
Therefore, I am planning to make the game freely available to everyone in a few weeks, hoping that this will be a new opportunity for Syzygy to flourish.
Quite some time has passed since the last copy sold but, if you bought the game and you feel that I am in any way doing you wrong with my decision, please request a refund. I understand.
I still want to thank anyone who decided to purchase the game in the past, left a review or reached out to share some thoughts on the game with me: your support is invaluable.
I won't give up making video games and, hopefully, I will be able to announce a new game soon enough. In the meantime, thanks for reading these few words.
Riccardo
