ONTOS is our most ambitious game to date, both in terms of its size and scale, and in the depth and layers of our story and gameplay.
In order to deliver this vision, we have decided to push the release of ONTOS to 2027.
We look forward to sharing more updates about ONTOS, our characters, and our world soon.

Happy Release Day!! π
I had the absolute honor of contributing the official soundtrack to this great game. A huge thank you to the entire team for the trust. Check out the game on Steam and make sure to listen to the soundtrack! π
HUGE success:
the CA Assembly Appropriations Committee just voted YES to move the bill to the Assembly floor. The @theESA gaslighting failed.
Huge thanks to @ChrisWardCA and his team. Next: the floor vote. Weβll need all of you once more.
ESA, git gud. β@StopKilingGames
@NebulaCloud34@fruttymoment The AI in SOMA being in the ocean was a good thing tho! It is the reason in the end we have something that lives on, instead of having nothing if it weren't there xD
If you are a developer working in the game industry and think this is gonna make everything harder, please look up Docker and Kubernetes(K8s) just a bit. I promise it's gonna make your life better if you are working with servers. Don't let the greedy higher ups lie to you.
Coming from developer here. This is very clearly not written by any developer, but someone in the business sides of things. I don't think anyone who worked on a game can say "Yeah, the game I worked for years becoming unplayable is okay.". None of my coworkers has said that.
You can't argue with "It will be more expensive/hard to make games" No. We have containerization for DECADES in software. If you build your game having that in mind things get easier in the long run because they are easier to reproduce, scale and maintain.
Guys, SKG initiative needs 200k more! If you are living in EU and want to preserve your games, help #StopKillingGames! The EU and UK petition link is in the replies!
If you're outside of these please help sharing the word(like me atm xD) so we can reach more people!
Today's the #StopKillingGames promotion day planned by the volunteers! I encourage people to make a post with that hashtag. I'm just following orders though, it's safe to label me as a boomer in regards to social media.
I think it's a good time to remind Stop Killing Games initiative is nearing it's end for signatures! Please consider reading and supporting it!

Hey EU friends!
If you haven't heard there's a petition called "Stop Killing Games" that now has an EU Initiative.
Please read and sign if you live in EU and want the games you enjoy playing (or enjoy creating) are not left in an unplayable state.
