Did you ever feel like punching a boulder? Well, now you can! Here's another glimpse of what’s coming soon in the new update! But don't punch your boulder too hard, or maybe - just maybe - it will punch back! 🔗 store.steampowered.com/app/3959020/... #FollowFriday #PixelArt #IndieGame #IndieDev

Really enjoyed the perspective! It's always more interesting when games explore their themes through mechanics. And it seems there's a space to apply concepts like Halberstam's queer temporality in game design too

UnplayTheGame @unplaythegame.com · 27/08/2026
Beautiful concept! I especially like the creatures' playful design

UnplayTheGame @unplaythegame.com · 21/08/2026
That's an interesting approach! Actually does a great job at adding a retro feel to your game

It’s impressive how your art style blends coziness with an original alien aesthetic. Was Samorost and other Amanita games one of your inspirations?

If you Steam analytics confirm that it would be meaningful, perhaps German, French or Slavic languages update?

Wow!!! That was fun! Such a witty deconstruction of two genres at the same time

We received most of our wishlists from a viral trailer that was featured by IGN, and from a viral trailer on the game’s page. The showcases varied: one was very successful. Mark's video might get into the top 4 wishlist sources overall.

UnplayTheGame @unplaythegame.com · 08/07/2026
Thanks! We’re really proud of this achievement. Mark’s video definitely helped a lot, and we’ve also been fortunate to show the game at several great showcases and events over the past year. Always open to new opportunities 🙂
