Good day, Fellow Meep!

It's been four and a half years since I first started tinkering with a hex grid map and thought "wouldn't this look neat on a Discworld-like Turtle!" It's been quite the journey... so far!

First off, I wanted to thank everyone who's supported me in whatever way to get to this point. Making an (even slightly successful) game is a huge undertaking, and I've had loads of assistance and support throughout the years. I hope I can ask for one more, crucial, favor:

How You Can Support Me


As a solo developer, there are so many ways you can help support me and the game.

  • If you buy the game (thanks!), please consider leaving an honest review on Steam! Reviews have a massive impact on Indie games and I'd love to see your thoughts and experiences through a review.
  • Sharing the game through word of mouth with family and friends or on social media with your followers can really help spread the word and give others a chance to discover their next adventure. So many indies are discovered with a simple share or casual discussion.
  • Join our community on Discord and follow us on Twitter/X to share in the excitement and get to know other gamers trying to keep World Turtles alive.
