Greetings fellow travelers,
We have a couple of very exciting and intertwined announcements:
On partnerships, publishing, and expanding the reach of Joni's tale
The team here at Causeway is excited to announce that we have formed a new partnership with indie.io to publish The Haunting of Joni Evers! We are a small team of 5 making this game and while we’re very good at telling stories and making fun games, getting them in front of gamers like yourselves is not our strong suit. As we were researching potential partners, indie.io stuck out to us with their track record of helping other indies reach a wider audience and once we started talking to them their enthusiasm for Joni was unmatched, and the path forward was clear. This partnership will enable us to focus our attentions on crafting the personal, terrifying, and emotional experience we know you're all looking forward to.
For those of you who may not know, having a game publisher like indie.io greatly helps indie developers focus on game development while they handle all the behind-the-scenes magic. From helping manage store pages to crafting marketing campaigns and even helping the game shine at both digital and live events, publishers help in all the aspects that indie developers often struggle with.
Milestone: 4,000 Wishlists!
We just passed four thousand wishlists and it just keeps going! This is a great example of how indie.io has already been helping you all discover our game and we can’t wait to let you experience Joni’s tale later this year! If you haven’t yet, be sure to share the game with your story-loving friends.
In Summary…
Thank you for coming along on this journey and being excited for The Haunting of Joni Evers! As a reminder, please wishlist the game and share it with your friends: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2828590/The_Haunting_of_Joni_Evers/
Til next we meet across the Causeway,
