Hey everyone!
Time to talk about a serious topic today.
Unfortunately, every year many young people decide to end their lives - way too many. In fact, in the UK, 125 people die from it every week, making it the biggest killer of men under 50.
As people, we empathize with them and they people they leave behind.
And as a dev team, we think we can maybe add just a tiny bit of help against that.
Our game's protagonist finds himself in harsh circumstances where it's easy to lose hope and give up, but he keeps fighting for a better future. With a character like that constantly on our minds, we feel like we need to work on a better future for our real world as well. And also, you know what? Sometimes a game, a good story, a different world is all you need to escape dark thoughts for a while.
That's why we decided to support CALM, the Campaign Against Living Miserably. They provide a free suicide prevention helpline, and are really making a difference for people who are struggling. Besides that, they also offer helpful resources on their website.
And this is how Steam comes into play as well.
Running from 8–15 September, to mark World Suicide Prevention Day, we’re proud to take part in Games Against Living Miserably 2025 - the event on Steam that celebrates how games can help us unwind, connect, and escape. It’s presented by Curve Games and the suicide prevention charity, Campaign Against Living Miserably.
At the moment, all we have is a free demo - so no proceeds directly from the game that we could donate. However, we're still going to make a donation (based on the assumed sales we would have made during the event).
If you also want to support their cause, feel free to make a donation to them as well!
