We saw this at Gamescom (you were just round the corner from us!) and thought it looked really cool. Good luck with the project!

Me and my wife have been creating Burn With Me, a narrative deckbuilder, for a year already.

After work, during weekends, slowly shaping the cozy but eerie world of personal desires and forbidden rituals.

Next week, January 29th, we open first public playtest!

There's no rush. Jupiter will be snoozing on the counter waiting for you when you're ready. And don't worry about those ravens - I'm sure that's nothing important. There are quite a lot of them though...

Thank you Ukko! Glad you enjoyed the game. We remember your excellent fan art from Strange Horticulture 💚

A colourful rendition of the Strange Horticulture shop interior with lots of plants, a stretching Hellebore and a female shopkeeper (or is that Simone Green, the librarian?) holding a watering can.

Love this Strange Horticulture fan art by LaPiChou! The colours are so bright and vibrant. Look out for that Torren on the lower shelf though 😯
