Hello friends, A new year has begun! I’d like to say I eased back into things slowly after having Christmas off but I literally started the month by releasing a new game lol. Here’s what we’ve been up to: [hr][/hr] [img]https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/43289866/11e08f180f04d0e20cddb1c2c5de7db259f5de60.png[/img] [h1]Butterfly Charity Donations[/h1] With the butterfly update for APICO we had a new influx of players beeing introduced to the wonderful world of bees! This also meant we could make a new batch of donations to various conservation, pollinator and butterfly charities. New donations included [url=https://www.pollinator.org/]Pollinator Partnership[/url], [url=https://www.regsciconsort.com/go-native-erie/]Regional Science Consortium[/url], and [url=https://butterfly-conservation.org/]Butterfly Conservation[/url]! You can [url=https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1F-_2cUzR1G59pM3XM9N0HppaNoKSko_7]view all the donations made from APICO sales here[/url].

This had been a long time coming and we can thank Whitethorn Games for helping arrange this.

Sadly not Feed The Beasts just yet (although that’s well on it’s way!). I wanted to work on a much smaller scope game to help me creatively, and the result was a small “player-cedural” sci-fi dungeon crawler called Rift Breach that I made in 3 weeks. You can read more about the [url=https://ko-fi.com/post/Concept-Game--Rift-Breach-O4O8HUFS2]thinking behind the game [/url]as well as the development here, and you can [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2267410/Rift_Breach/]go play the demo over on Steam now[/url]!

Now that we have 3 games to keep on top of I wanted to make a one-stop shop for all things TN to try and keep on top of things. You can check it out over on [url=https://tngineers.com/]tngineers.com,[/url] which has some general information as well as links + presskits for all 3 games! [hr][/hr] So that’s a wrap on January, bee safe and we’ll see you next month! Love, Ell & Jamie <3
