We're early in the development of a new game with the working title "Sulfur" (or "Silenus"), an investigative mystery set on a string of islands along the U.S. southern coast. We'll share updates here. We also post detailed dev logs on Patreon & are very grateful to our friends and supporters.

Glad your enjoying the process! In the past I've been pretty lazy with keeping notes and documentation but it's turned out to be really helpful on this project
