Happy Holidays! 2022 was an eventful year for us, and we wanted to take a moment to reflect on it and share some highlights.
Earlier this year we released our brand new game Nobody Saves the World. It was our most successful launch to date and we have been overwhelmed by the positive reception!
Nobody Saves the World has even been featured on a few Game of the Year lists!! We’re honoured to see it on these lists alongside so many of our favourites from this year:

We moved!
Remote work has changed the way our team collaborates, so we recently moved to a new office that is better suited to our new approach to working together (and we had a little pizza party to celebrate!). Much of the team will still be working from home moving forward, but people that want a work-in-progress-home-away-from-home now have a shiny new space to hang out in!
NSTW Vinyl
Back in September, Jim Guthrie successfully funded his vinyl campaign for the Nobody Saves the World soundtrack (featuring artwork by Drinkbox Art Director Augusto Quijano). We’re looking forward to getting these into your (and our) hands (and ear holes) in early 2023!
We’ve been working hard on something special for Nobody Saves the World (coming VERY SOON) as well as prototyping some other new stuff… we’re excited to share more about all of that when we can!!
Thank you for making Nobody Saves the World a very memorable launch and 2022 a great year overall for Drinkbox. We really couldn’t have done it without you and appreciate your support.
Happy Holidays, from your pals at Drinkbox Studios.
