OUT NOW: Unemployment Simulator 2018

Unemployment Simulator 2018 · published 3 Feb 2026, 16:26 UTC

Hello friends,

Are you real? Or am I just imagining things right now?

I hope you’re real, because I just pressed the release button and US18 is now available on Steam with a 20% discount, lasting for one week!

Watch on YouTube

This is a huge achievement for me, and it feels surreal to be able to bring my very first game to the world — a project that started as an art experiment and slowly turned me into a solo dev.

I want to thank you all for following me along this journey, as well as all the others who just found my game and decided to buy it. Your support is invaluable!

I would also like to point out that my job with the game is not quite done yet, and assure players about a couple of points:

  • Full control support will be added (this is actually 90% complete already)
  • Steam Deck compatibility will be there
  • More languages will be added (I talked about this in my previous news)
  • More achievements will be added

I hope to be able to bring you all this pretty soon.

But more than anything, I hope you enjoy the game.

Now if you'll excuse me I have somewhere to go.

Let's be brave.
