Our sound designer and in-house musician @allymobbs.bsky.social put together an incredible live set and put our guest musician the legend Chip Tanaka on stage for a mind blowing session as well! We celebrated with street beers afterwards.

So many friends to celebrate videogames with at BitSummit!! @swerytd.bsky.social @liambme.bsky.social

Day 2 of #BitSummit was incredible! So many folks came by to play #AWAYSIS and had a great time.

Last week we caught up with @bb.wavelengths.online to show him #AWAYSIS. It was an absolute pleasure to talk about what we want to achieve with our game, and what it's like running a studio in Kyoto.

They talk about it on the latest @intothecast.bsky.social episode: intothecast.online

11 years ago today, our animator @callenwagner.bsky.social suited up as A-TAK from #GALAK-Z at PSX 2014. I asked for fun memories.

🥪 They had bomb catering
🐼 I got to hang out in a mascot room with other mascots
🤸‍♂️ Tight outfits are only comfy for the first 15 mins!

I had a ton of fun playing this when it came out, it is totally worth the price (and more)!

And there’s the bonus of Mike Sinterniklaas providing the voice of our brave pilot!

He may be small, but Auro packs a punch against those Goblins.

#gaming #gamedev #indiegame #AWAYSIS

Awaysis, from the makers of the underrated Galak-Z, was inspired by the slapstick physics action of Gang Beasts having one glaring omission—it needed a giant sword A little bit Zelda and a little bit Gang Beasts, Awaysis is trying to make physics-based combat way punchier.

Great piece interviewing @jkooza.bsky.social over on @pcgamer.com!

"There's a lot of blocking, a lot of parrying and deflecting, so when you do get a hit in, you've earned it and it feels great. This is the stuff that really excites me in combat: there's a very high skill ceiling."
