🎃 Announcement 🎃 The Steam Page is now live!

13 days ago
After almost half a year of development, we’ve finally got a Steam Page up 🎉It’s been an incredible journey so far, for both the game and the studio. What started out as a small game jam entry has become what will be our first release! The game has changed a lot over the months, moving away from my own hand drawn scribbles, to something that I think looks absolutely beautiful (thanks Sarah). The music and sfx have had a major upgrade too, thanks to the work of our new cofounder, Mike! Even the gameplay has changed, from a simple 5 minute experience, to a complex, ever changing, incremental. One thing has remained throughout, however. And that’s the spirit of the game, inspired by the real legends of the Lantern Man of The Fens in the east of England. That spooky essence that we’ve captured has been there from the beginning, and we’re very proud of where we’ve taken it. Wishlist Now:
