Celebration & Announcing Within Somnia!
Thank you very much for your support!I created Contraindication during a time when I was unsure if I would ever be able to create again, so this game was made not with the intentions of being a “good game”, but rather as proof that I can still create. I did not think anyone would play it, so all of your kindness has inspired me - I never would have imagined that it would hit 20,002 licenses in a month!Now for the announcement...While Contraindication was made in 11 days (where the last 3 were frantic coding), this project has been in the works for several years and is very close to my heart.Within Somnia \ will launch FREE on Steam - please wishlist for support!" \ is company policy. The lines begin to blur between your identity... A surreal (comedic) horror RPG with a fusion of pixel, hand-drawn, & 3D art. Fall deeper & deeper into sleep while you wait, something lies beneath the surface. "One last illustration to say goodbye, thank you for everything!P.S. you might see them as an easter egg in a future release of Within Somnia ;]Read full article on Community Announcements (drift)
