June Update and Release Date


So, truth to be told, we managed to get the game done on 31st of May 2020. We could've release here right away, but as some of you may know there was the devastating death of George Floyd. An innocent African American man, who died from police mistreatment during arrest. I won't lie, I'm not familiar with the history of police brutality or racism in the US, I'm Indonesian, and my knowledge on racial discrimination isn't that good. I always thought that kind of misconduct and racial profiling only happens in the past like 1970s and below, when people still weren't as educated as they are now.   I was shocked to find that such conduct still happens today. Racial profiling, police brutality, is wrong no matter what race is on the receiving end. 

It struck quite a chord with me that I felt wrong releasing  on that date and I decided to delay the release of the game.  I will still release this month, since it is been in development for long enough and some of you even have emailed me regarding the release date.  I want to give a clear answer. So on itch.io I am releasing the game on the 7th of June 2020. Steam release and other platforms dates will be released later on, as steam does check your game first before giving the approval of release so steam release will depend on how fast that would be done. 

For those protesting in the US, please be safe and I give you my love. For anyone who wants to help with the cause you also can go sign petitions or donate to https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/

Thank you for your attention
