Hello!
So. You somehow found this website, and now you’re wondering what all of this is about and why you started reading a post.
What is this about?
It is about games, that are fun and tell a story. They are developed to be like reading good books. Something you can’t put away; but also something to ponder about.
Easier said than done, sadly. Very few games actually are thought-provoking – requiring reflection – while still being fun. It is also not advicable financially, as it is much more successful to have lots of action and insane good graphics instead.
But then what is the alternative? Only playing games where you can learn nothing? Idling away the finite time of your life. Nothing gained; a lot is lost.
So that is where we want to be different. This is the hard problem we want to tackle. Having fun, but also gaining some knowledge; some thoughts; some wisdom; something one can use in the real world again.
It is likely that we fail. But it is better to fail while trying to do something grand anyway.
You probably did not expect to read something of that sort on a game developer page; especially not in the welcome post ^^
But that is what this is about.
The Future
Well, this undertaking has just yet started. But you can show support already by following on social media and giving feedback! Criticism is always most welcome.
The first project that is likely going to be released is a game with the temporary name “Train Apokalypse”. Yes, there is a “k” in there. It is temporary. Stay tuned for updates on that very soon!
Thanks for reading.
