Feedback during MIGW: we had players who were unable to really figure out where to go with a map or button prompt. So we are going to add an optional compass. Do compasses work differently in the southern hemisphere? Magnetic poles and all? #antarctica #lovecraft #videogames

🐧This trailer for Penguin Colony gave us chills 🥶

We were looking for a good horror game for our One Controller series.

🐧It's coming soon... so there's even more suspense! 🐧

p.s. it's part of the Steam Made in NZ feature 🍃
