It’s a great game, and it’s made with Godot too. I love seeing their success!
We're so thrilled to be able to announce that Cassette Beasts has sold over *1.1 MILLION units*!
We started out as a tiny team hoping we might be lucky enough to sell even a fraction of that - for every share, review, or positive comment, we really can't thank all of you enough. 💜

Going to my physical: “I am two Starmaps tall.”
Our Starmap in physical form for the first time! This is just a proof, used for quality assurance before we run them all. The final version for backers won’t have a white border and a person holding it up.

Just our first test print for proofing, and I am in continual, happy shock how freaking cool this thing is to hold and thumb through. When you spend your life making things on a screen, tangible representations are somehow even more surreal.
We made this! You made this! We can't wait to share it with everyone who backed our Kickstarter for it.
Happy Friday, our usual Big Development Update Post is coming soon.

Game pitch for “Carrying Capacity”: you play the 20 slot backpack in an RPG hurriedly trying to make space for your adventurer hoovering up stacks of vegetables and rocks and potions they never use because they might need them in 10 hours. You win when the adventurer beats the game.
