Celebrating 10,000 wishlists 🥳 When we started working on Imprinted , we set out to make something unapologetically strange: a game about creative obsession. Damaged recordings, forgotten art, a fake operating system, and the unsettling feeling of digging too deep into someone else's life - it's the kind of nuanced idea that isn't always easily categorised, and that's exactly why we wanted to…

Hello everyone! We're happy to be part of London Games Festival's Official Selection, both in the Steam event and on-site. It's always a blast to watch visitors test our current build, and a huge motivation boost to keep working on our first game! We're hard at work as production has started in March already, and I'm especially happy to report that Imprinted has been funded completely, so now i…
Hi everyone, We've jumped into production of Imprinted in March, and also attended our first expo officially ( GG Bavaria in Munich ), with a booth and all that :O Lots of fun watching people play the game, immersing themselves into the story despite the loud ambience of the expo. Super grateful for an intense, but very motivating weekend. (Big thanks to the team that helped out on site <3 ) We…
Very little is known about Viola Fossati. That’s part of the problem, and part of the pull. If you were looking for easy comparisons, you might call her the Nick Drake of Northern Italy, but that only works if you strip away the expectation of neat songs, gentle melancholy, and tidy endings. Viola’s work is rougher than that - it’s stranger. She is less interested in performance and more concer…
We can finally announce that our new game, Imprinted , is a ghost story about creativity - it’s about two musical worlds colliding, about the discovery of a forgotten artist and the past she left behind, and about a presence that feeds on doubt, obsession, and the darker thoughts we try to ignore. It’s a psychological thriller told through a fake operating system, where emails, audio files, cha…
Flickering moon, the road turns Cobalt blue. I hope you are doing great and finding some peace of mind in this last stretch of December, the “silent time” as it is called here. Epiphanies Do you remember the moments that changed your life completely? Emerging so slowly you don’t notice at first, and then jumping out, overwhelming you? Looking back, I can connect a couple of seminal moments in m…
