You heard that right, starting April 1st, Nebula Within will be completely, entirely, free!
To start, I want to express my utmost gratitude and thanks to everyone who purchased the game since launch. I have always been a frugal gamer, so choosing to purchase a game, no matter the cost, has always been a huge deal to me. To know that 215 people chose to purchase my game is an absolute honor. Each of you has helped validate my experiences and recoup some time I spent developing Nebula Within, and for that, I feel truly grateful. Your actions and feedback have meant the world to me.
That said, I'm no longer at a point in my life where I feel the need to charge for this work of art (and I do believe games are art). I would rather open the opportunity to play Nebula Within to anyone who is curious or interested. I spent much of my own life not playing games I was interested in because I didn't have the money to spare on them. If any project is to address that experience, Nebula Within has got to be it.
Moving forward, I hope more folks will be able to access this experience.
If you're reading this after April 1st 2022, the game is yours!
If you're reading this and have purchased Nebula Within, the game, my heart, and my gratitude is yours.
As will forever be the case, reach out if you have any thoughts, concerns, requests, or comments. I'm a real human being. And just because Nebula Within is going free does not mean I will no longer be here with open ears, an open mind, and a desire to help.
Honored to be your dev,
-Nick
