We started with a very modest basic Kickstarter goal at 10K, but the scope of our dreams for All Will Rise are a lot bigger. Please repost far and wide so we can reach our dream goal of 100K and make more music, more quests, more art, and a mobile version of the game! #indiedev #indiegames #gamedev

By the way, at the €40000 tier, the team will be able to afford more music tracks. So let’s get it funded! So I can live. Lmao

How cool is our game that it is directly inspired by real life climate cases? How many games have that going for it?

I love this picture, that's me with my friend and meditation teacher @rosaclewis.bsky.social at the letters V and R. We met for the first time in real life that week after doing a lot of long distance work together. I like how it shows how you can be a small part of powerful communal action.

Our singer Joost was involved in a court case against one of the world's biggest pension funds. It gave him the idea for the game All Will Rise, and now there's a demo on Steam and a kickstarter to finish the final game. Read all about it here:

All Will Rise

Another fun one. Really unique non-combat deckbuilding game, where you try to build a legal case for murder of the local river.

Very flavorful and with a cool setting. Looks like it's still early in development, but very promising.

5/5 would wishlist
