This is a good time to remind you that Dawnfolk is DRM-free. Even if you bought it on Steam, it's yours to keep and play forever. You can copy the game folder anywhere you'd like, and it'll still run. Happy preserving ❤️

Unfortunately, Dawnfolk just lost its “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating today. 🫤 If you haven’t left a review yet, it would mean a lot if you did. Thank you. 🙏

A contest is taking place on Dawnfolk: Snack The Cats! The last contest winner TolkaKiska designed a new tile for the game, the "Cat Village", which inspired that new challenge. Find all the cat villages and feed the cats! (link in bio and below) #cats

I'm running a Community Contest on Dawnfolk. 🏆 You’ll have to build a castle on a chaotically generated map. And when I say chaotic… I mean everything wants you dead. More info on the discord and steam hub (link in bio). #indiegame

Dawnfolk was just picked as one of TechDweeb's 20 favorite indie games to play on handhelds. 🔥 It really hits different when your own game shows up in a video from a YouTube channel you regularly watch, such a great feeling. #indiegame

Not all reviews are straightforward… some are strange, poetic, and strangely heartwarming. I love this one. ❤️

Aaaaand Dawnfolk is out on Switch 1 & 2! 🎉 Unless it suddenly goes viral (it’s still sitting at ~100k wishlists on Steam), this will likely be my last time working on Dawnfolk. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who supported me. ❤️ #indiedev
