After three years of work, AETHUS is out... NOW! 👩‍🚀⛏️ This is my love letter to survival-crafting games, and it's a full 1.0 package - no EA! $15.99 at launch for 30+ hours of proper story-driven gameplay. Can you help me spread the word about my little indie game? #AETHUS #GameDev #IndieGame

AETHUS, my solo-indie debut, launches straight to 1.0 (no Early Access!) TOMORROW, March 6th! Story is so often an afterthought in survival-crafting games... Not so in AETHUS - fully voice-acted, there's always a narrative reason to head underground or build up your mining base! #IndieDev

"Kaizen: A Factory Story" is a excellent Zach-like from the devs who know the genre best

Familiar Zachtronics-style gameplay feels great in 1980s Japan.
