Molleindustria FUTURE? NO THANKS! OUT NOW @molleindustria.org · 27/08/2026
Update: even after we removed the entire sex quest, Steam mis-classifies Future? No Thanks! as pornography, making it invisible to most Steam users and completely geo-locked in Germany. We are currently at Gamescom in Cologne, everybody is asking us why they can't see the PAGE of a Teen rated game.

in our game you parkour up mountains with your friends: you might think we have metrics. but we never graybox. it's just more fun to download models and prototype in real places, like blood gulch. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev

end of the first day, & we’re 35% funded. we had some generous donations right up front, but even small donations are helpful for funding boshi’s place. if you’ve got a couple bucks, consider it!
a screenshot of our gofundme page. an icon in the top left indicates that we are already 35% funded.

in our game you parkour up uncharted mountains with your friends. but it began as a game where you jump idly around peach's castle grounds. i think that had to be fun first for parkour of any sort to be possible! #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev
