Dear Community,
We have been silent since the pre-alpha playtest this summer, but for a very good reason: negotiations with publishers! This crucial step requires meticulously presenting our project, having several exchanges, and agreeing on details. Once an agreement is reached, drafting the contract adds to our already intense work on the game.
Today, after months of hard work behind the scenes, we are thrilled to share a great piece of news: we have a publisher! Twinsen is (really) back!
Our first collaboration will be the remake of Twinsen’s Little Big Adventure Classic. (And yes, you read that right: a remake! We will reveal more details in an upcoming article.)
But then who is this mysterious publisher? For now, we are keeping the information under wraps. Why this discretion? To answer that, it’s important to clarify the role of the publisher for our specific project. Apart from financing the team, our publisher aims to reach new players unfamiliar with Twinsen. To do this, certain industry codes must be respected. For instance, when a publisher makes an announcement, it’s through a cinematic trailer or by showing a part of the game in its final quality. As we have nothing yet to present in final quality, a full announcement seems premature.
Furthermore, since the start of this adventure in September 2021, we’ve made numerous announcements without always having concrete things behind them. This intentional choice (and mostly successful) is no longer desirable today.
We will therefore resume sharing the behind-the-scenes of this adventure with you, the fans, while letting our publisher handle presenting the game to the broadest audience at the ideal time.
We thank you immensely for your patience and unwavering support during these first two years. It has sometimes been difficult, but now we can look forward and move together towards the grand return of Twinsen!
