That's a wrap for Gamescom!
So many things to process and so many news to share. But for now I must make up for all the lost sleep and give my legs a rest.
Thanks to everyone who came to check the game out ❤️

OMG we are beyond honored to be nominated for this award 😱😱😱
Being a women-led studio is an important part of our business and creative philosophy and it's wonderful to be recognized for that.
Thank you so much we love to hear it!
Many people have said they loved our pigeon reporter, Clara Swifting, so let's see how she was drawn!

We can be found in Hall 10.2 at the Indie Arena Booth. We're #43, which is right around the middle of the IAB.
Closer to the date, I'll try to make a guide video and share it here as well!
Share some love with our friends over at Pentapaw! We got to play their game recently at IGF Cologne and it was a blast. If you like fast-paced, high skill-ceiling good old co-op action, Yarn Guardian is simply unmissable.
OMG thank you for the lovely words! Don't tell Gamescom because we have to do business there but A MAZE is our favorite festival of all times 🤫
Thank you for the kind words! And you nail all of our influences. So happy that we can evoke these amazing game in our audience
Thank you for the lovely words! At the moment we don't yet have any steam key program but I see that you are coming to Gamescom. Since we will be there as well at the Indie Arena Booth every single day, please drop by and check out the game! We will try to have something for the future
we're cornering the squirrel market
Thank you so much! That means a lot to us, especially at this early stage

Sleepy today so let's see if I remember to share the count down post later
In the background a newspaper with the headline that reads "Mayor Accuses Game of Fake News". In the foreground, the phrase "2 days to go" is displayed prominently in yellow letters, and a character from the game, who is a rooster wearing a suite and tie with a concerned look and sweaty feathers.
2 more days to go!
Seems like I messed up and accidentally spoiled this character yesterday. I'm not "the main social media guy". But I also don't have shame so it's fine. Just like Mayor Gutless Goober!
#MediaCircusGame #indiedev #indiegame #madewithgodot #godot #handdrawn #journalism #gamedev
3 more days and our steam page is live!
In our game, you can piss off this bumbling fool of a rooster mayor. You can also choose to piss off his political rival. Or both of them. It's a lot of pissing off.

In the background a newspaper with the headline that reads "City abuzz over game reveal! By Clara Swifwing, Staff Reporter". In the foreground, the phrase "4 days to go" is displayed prominently in yellow letters, and a character from the game, who is a young pigeon with a purple headress and a colorful scarf
4 days until our Steam page officially launches!
We heard that you love pigeons so wishlist our game if want to have a pigeon reporter working for your very own weekly newspaper.

Okay so apparently you can't just put a GIF up as an image. I'm the fool.

A GIF showing the main mechanic of the game Media Circus which allows the player to freely design their own newspaper from a pool of headlines and advertisements
In our game, you will influence both narrative and mechanical systems through designing a weekly newspaper!

In the foreground, the phrase "5 days to go" is displayed prominently in yellow letters, and a character from the game, who is a lady molerat with earth-toned purple skin and hair and a green sweater, is juxtaposed next to it.
5 days to go! Media Circus is launching its Steam page.
On August 15th, wishlist the game that lets you:
- Accidentally spark a city-wide alien panic
- Actually influence voters
- Catch a serial killer with investigative journalism alone
