Hey everyone,

Just a quick heads up to ask you to check out the latest and greatest Spiritfarer Gameplay Teaser! Behold:



This new teaser finds Stella following Alice the Hedgehog Spirit on a not-so-little trip to heretofore unexplored locales, from the frozen landscapes of Nordweiler to the metropolitan areas of Oxbury. By the end, Stella is seen hurrying home, zipline-bound.

If you've been following us for a while, you'll also notice some new faces, such as Giovanni the Lion Spirit and Stan the Mushroom Spirit too!

Let us know what you think, please! And do please Wishlist and Follow Spiritfarer if you haven't already.

Cheers,

- Rodrigue and the Spiritfarer Team

Hey everyone,

Just a quick heads up to ask you to check out the latest Spiritfarer Gameplay Teaser! Please feast your eyeballs on this:



In this teaser, we wanted to give a spotlight to some of the sprightlier platforming levels that we're designing as spicy interludes to Spiritfarer's cozy management and emotional narrative. Long time fans know that we do enjoy us some smooth and satisfying platforming gameplay, and I personally feel there's some silky smooth Eshe DNA in Stella's moves!

Let us know what you think, please! And do please Wishlist and Follow Spiritfarer if you haven't already.

Hope you're keeping happy and healthy out there, y'all!

See you out on the mystical seas,

- Rodrigue and the Spiritfarer Team

Hey everyone,

I hope that you and yours are all keeping it together out there, and staying healthy!

Did you happen to notice that the FREE playable demo for Spiritfarer is being featured in the Steam Game Festival - Spring Edition? It'll be available through the weekend before it's removed from Steam. If you haven't checked it out, this is your chance to get your first taste of the game we've been pouring our hearts and souls into for nearly two years now! (and if you have, maybe share with a friend who you think would dig it!)

Grab or share the limited time Spiritfarer demo HERE!

The demo is great, but TBH, it's just a little taster for the full game. Yes, production is rolling on at full tilt, and the whole team is spending this weekend playing through our first Beta build, before we're ready to release it for testing among a select group of players! Let it be known that the Spiritfarer Closed Beta is happening soon™, and if you're interested in participating, we're holding signups through our mailing list until March 25h!

Please head HERE to subscribe to the mailing list, and we'll send you a link to get yourself on the list! (Note: If you're already a subscriber, we got you covered - you'll receive the same link shortly.)

Hope to have you on the Closed Beta Team!

Cheers,

- Rodrigue and the Spiritfarer Team

Hey everyone,

Today, I'm very excited to announce that a FREE playable demo for Spiritfarer is available NOW, for a limited 48-hour window before it is removed from Steam. Now's your chance to get your first taste of the game we've been pouring our hearts and souls into for nearly two years now!

In the demo, you'll be playing as Stella (with her trusty feline companion Daffodil - who can be played by a friend on a second controller, if you like!). You'll meet the snake spirit Summer and fulfilling her last requests before she completes her transition to the afterlife. You'll learn to improve your boat, explore the world, fish, garden, cook, and more!

Grab the limited time Spiritfarer demo HERE!

As a little bonus to the demo, we're offering a Mini Booklet introducing the characters of the demo to all subscribers of our newsletter! I do try my best to make the newsletter as fan-focused as possible, with free goodies and behind-the-scenes stuff galore, so I hope you'll join the family too, if you haven't already!

Head HERE to subscribe to the mailing list and get your free Mini Booklet!

The demo is being made available as part of The Game Festival, a first-of-its-kind digital consumer event that is launching a digital pilot program on Steam to celebrate this year's Game Awards. We love this idea of a new, digital version of the cons we travel the world to bring our games to - we're stoked to be taking part this year, and can't wait to see how The Game Festival might grow over the next few years!

Let us know what you think of the demo, wontcha please!

Cheers,

Hey everyone!

It’s a big red letter day here at Thunder Lotus! We’re super stoked to finally reveal the project we’ve been lovingly crafting over the past 18 months or so. Behold Spiritfarer: a cozy management game about dying.

Queue our first trailer and prepare thyselves for the feels!

Spiritfarer is a project that’s near and dear to our hearts. Here’s the basic pitch:

In Spiritfarer, you play Stella, ferrymaster to the deceased. Build a boat to explore the world, then befriend and care for spirits before finally releasing them into the afterlife. Farm, mine, fish, harvest, cook, and craft your way across mystical seas. Join the adventure as Daffodil the cat, in two-player cooperative play. Spend relaxing quality time with your spirit passengers, create lasting memories, and, ultimately, learn how to say goodbye to your cherished friends.

Expect a release next year on Steam, as well as with Xbox Game Pass for PC and Console, Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch!

We can’t wait to tell you more about the game over the next few days, weeks, and months.

Today, as I write this, we’re enjoying the frenzy of E3 2019, where we’ve been invited by the good people at Microsoft to present the first playable demo of Spiritfarer as part of their E3 activities. Come say hi at the Microsoft Theater if you’re in town for the convention! If not, maybe we’re coming to another con near you over the next few months, hmm?

Stay tuned (and do please Follow or Wishlist Spiritfarer)!

Back to you soon with more Spiritfarer news!

Cheers y’all,
