Hey everyone - it's a big day for Aberrate Inc.!
We’re excited to finally share that "Aberrate Team" is now "Chilltop Games" and Aberrate Inc. is now being published by UK-based indie publisher Ripstone. To mark the occasion we’ve just released a brand new trailer!
It’s a quick look at at N.T.R.N. and the cosy “thinky” puzzle vibe we’ve been quietly building towards since the game’s student‑project days!
Aberrate Inc. started life at Macquarie University and went on to win Best Student Game at SXSW Sydney in late 2025, and now, with Ripstone on board, we’re developing it into a full commercial release for PC targeting Q4 2026. That means more levels, more tactile contraptions, and a more fleshed‑out journey through the strange offices of its titular company.
Going forward, this Steam hub is going to be the best place to follow along from here. Between now and launch, we’re planning:
Regular dev diaries digging into design, mechanics, art, puzzles and the tech behind Aberrate Inc.
News posts and studio updates whenever we hit milestones, share new trailers, or take part in events.
Occasional behind‑the‑scenes peeks at how we're building a cosy, low‑pressure puzzle game together.
If you like what you see in the new trailer, please consider adding Aberrate Inc. to your wishlist and stick around - we’ll be back soon with our first proper diary entry, a closer look at N.T.R.N., and how the whole “place, split, and combine” box system came together!
