Our final dev blog on the 4 ages of Errata is live. In the Barren Age, players must choose between survival inside corrupt cities, or striking their own path in the deep desert.

Which route will you choose?

Look for indigenous games online and this is your typical list.

Other than Never Alone, not one of these studios is indigenously led or owned.

Why is this an important observation?

We’ve added a new starter pack to help here.

We’re publicly building an MMO from the ground up as a small bootstrapped indigenous team based in New Zealand.

Sound fun? Let us know what you think!

Our first steps are sharing concept art and lore drops with you while we build the back end.

The Bygone Era feels close to now. Distance lost its meaning, pipes and rails stacked up, and data made hard work look easy.

Errata is a game that deals with global issues.

This #FollowFriday were showing some support to fellow #maori developers of Atutanga.

#Atutanga is available now on Meta Quest, and shows a post-apocalyptic Earth from a Māori worldview.

Doesn’t this look amazing?

We can only hope to do as well!

Just a quick thank you to everyone following us so far and dropping comments.

We’re really just getting started telling the story of Errata - an Earth ruined by the mistakes of modern humans as seen through indigenous eyes.

Ask us questions!

Dryrunners are Errata’s unseen backbone. Mobile Runs move water, tools, and verified know-how across hostile distances while refusing corporate rule. Whakapapa and utu shape trust. Coercion and exploitation break it. Respect earns access.

Why do rulers cling to the aesthetics of dead empires?

I grew up overseas. Curious about Māori identity but disconnected.

Tumeke Studio and the Errata project let me explore that—through science fiction, not nostalgia.

Its important to create new stories.
