Hey Forest Keepers,

We're in the final stages of development, mostly bug catching and adding neat details like flying insects.

Our current release window is Q3 2026. More soon!

Wishing you a wonderful summer with lots of cozy journeys, and hopefully ours will be one of them!🧡

We're talking about the world of Tukoni, how @Amanita_Design's games inspired us, and how it feels developing a game while living in Ukraine today. Have a read.❤️
