Dear friends,
I hope you are all well. The Steam Next Fest is over and a lot of games took part. Mine was there too and today is the day my game will be released. I'm looking forward to see how it goes.
I also managed to put some exciting games together for the newsletter. This week we have a range of games which take us on deep sea expeditions, into the neon light of cyberpunk worlds and through the halls of a wizard academy.
Let's get started.
