About This Game

  • ***Dear Players: Unfortunately, due to health/surgery issues affecting one of our developers (we are a team of three), we regret to inform you that our next Mega Update has been postponed until early May. We sincerely appreciate everyone's support and understanding during this time. We assure you that our next Mega Update will be significantly enhanced, featuring incredible optimization, expanded exploration areas, and support for additional languages.
    Thank you very much for your understanding.***

  • ***This game focuses on storytelling, centering around the real-life struggles of a close friend of ours who faced tough times in his youth without the support he needed. It's meant to show how our actions can have consequences that affect not only ourselves but also those we love. It's important to mention that we donate a portion of our profits to organizations that provide mental health services, with a particular focus on those working towards suicide prevention.***

  • ***This is our first game, and it's still in the beta phase. We are working hard to deliver the best experience to you. Unfortunately, a nodule/tumor was found in the lung of one of our developers. Because of this (he is undergoing treatment, waiting for surgery, etc.), the beta phase has been extended.***

    Nevertheless, we are working diligently on the next updates, which will include a complete overhaul of the game's shadow system, improved graphics, enhanced movement, and entirely revamped scenarios. In addition, we'll be adding translations for Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, among other languages. Stay tuned, and thank you very much for all the support and kindness in this dark moment.
