Artificial Extinction 2 launches June 10th!

As a thank you to everyone who supported the original Artificial Extinction, I've created a Complete The Set bundle on Steam. If you own Artificial Extinction, you'll receive an additional 15% discount on Artificial Extinction 2 through the bundle. The discount also stacks with launch and sale pricing.

The sequel ended up being a much bigger project than I ever imagined. There were periods where I burned out, stepped away from development, and wondered if I would ever actually finish it. What kept me going was a small but incredibly supportive community of players who continued to offer feedback, encouragement, and support throughout the journey.

Looking back, one of the biggest lessons I learned is that it's easy to keep adding features and chasing perfection. If I could give one piece of advice to other developers, it would be this: finish sooner. Five years disappears faster than you think.

Thank you to everyone who supported the original game and helped make the sequel possible. I hope you'll join me again when Artificial Extinction 2 launches on June 10th.
