well, hello
This is our second title after Solarix, set in the same universe of Solarix but this is a first-person adventure game. More like those walking sims as they say.
Out in late August

This is the steam store page;

I had more fun with this while making, no AI or zombies or shotguns to worry about.
Only for those who enjoyed Solarix's story and characters and wants to dig for more:)

Looks great so far. I haven't played Solarix but from what you've shown on the video it looks like you are going for a greater variety of environments this time, which is a good thing. My only negative comment (and it's not a biggee) is for the voiceover which sounds a little amateurish.

Looks interesting, somewhat similar to the recently released (

Just like before, I'd be interested in helping beta test, if you need it.

Definitely looks very moody :) Might be a new cool direction to try too. I know you haven't had the reception you hoped with Solarix (something I experienced myself), are you seeing more interest in the new title?
Congrats on already getting through Greenlight too!

I don't think so, since there are literally 1000 titles being released on steam every month, I don't know how to grab that attention, other than just trying to do your best. What I've discussed with you before still is valid, maybe more. There were several gaming sites picked the press release announcement, it drove almost zero traffic to steam store page. Steam has become more closed eco-system than ever so trying to pick interest outside of it is very difficult for indies.

I'm sorry to hear, but all reflective of my own experience as well. I got a review in big Polish mags for my game and if it wasn't for randomly stumbling on it while browsing at a store, I would have never known since it had no noticable effect on traffic either. Difficult is the marketing game.
Keep us posted on how it goes!

Here is some gameplay video

Also a note to other developers in case Brethren wants to beta-test your game. He grabs beta-keys and then disappears. He did the same with Solarix, stupid me, gave him another go with Devoid. After chasing for several weeks, no news. Makes you wonder what's the point of "being busy and asking to beta-test an indie game at the same time".

Oh that Brethren! He steals your heart and then he steals your betakeys.
*furiously crosses Brethren's name from the Pogo Fella beta invite list* :mad::(

The new trailer looks very pretty, i like the variety of locations and themes. Best of luck with the launch!
