The Abandoned Planet

In this patch, I fixed a minor bug in Act 4 and I added support for resizable game window. While the game will auto-launch in full screen mode, you can toggle out of that (according to your OS) and then resize the window how you'd like. All the menus will anchor to the 16:9 aspect ratio of the gameplay window.

Hello everyone, Thank you all for patiently waiting for "The Abandoned Planet". While the game is technically "finished", there are a few things left to do, like localization, which has been delayed. So, in talks with my publisher, Snapbreak, we have decided to postpone the launch of the game until August 29th. It will 100% come out on this date. Even so, I am so sorry you can't pick it up on May 23rd. My sincerest apologies. I do hope you all can understand. There are numerous factors to consider when picking a release date. We discussed it at length and we believe that August 29th will be a more ideal date than the one we had previously chosen... especially considering there are still some important things left to do. But there is good news... there's a new demo! NEW DEMO {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42468789/b6f2df9ded79f67ac9cca3e5571f59c129786be4.png I wanted to wait until the localization was complete to release a new demo, but I've decided to just go ahead and release it with the English, Spanish, and French localizations. As you can see in the above screenshot, the new demo features the following: New Menus New Voice Actress; the British actress Eri

Hey everyone! I hope everyone has been doing well over the last few months. I've been busy, and... elephant in the room... I did not meet the Q1 release date. So sorry about that. It's my fault really. With my last game I underestimated how long the final stages of making a commercial game take, and this time I repeated the same mistake. Even when you "finish" a game, there is somehow so many administrative things to take care of; screenshots, trailers, bug fixing, platform optimization, localization, Steam Achievements, etc. Each one of these can take a week or more to complete.. I am just one person after all. IT'S DONE That said though -- The Abandoned Planet is complete! Yep, you read that right; it's done. And there's a brand new voice actress, Erika Merchant, who voiced the astronaut. She's great, and I think everyone will be pleased with the change. NEW DEMO SOON Once localization is complete (which is the very final thing that's left to do), I will upload an updated demo which showcases Act 1. This new demo will feature the new voice actress, be localized into 11 world languages, and even have some new puzzles, animations, and cu

HELLO! I hope all is well as we kick off 2024. First of all, I want to assure everyone that the game is coming along nicely and is almost finished. I'm working on the final cutscenes and wrapping up some puzzles in Act 5 (the final act). Thank you so much for your patience! Before we get into the nitty gritty, you can check out a bunch of gameplay and an overview of The Abandoned Planet in this video that it was showcased in. It's a video about upcoming adventure games in 2024. Here is the time stamp of when my game is showcased: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42468789/26e1e2160dce7a94f1228a57e8e4cb4cf55cf8fa.gif Setbacks & Game Length So, elephant in the room... I did not meet the 2023 release date. I'm so sorry about that! It was not my intention, but game development is very difficult to predict. Launching a game that meets developer and player expectations is no easy task. I want to make sure that players get their money's worth; a fun game with challenging puzzles and an engaging story. It also can't be too short! While not everyone equates game-length with value, I definitely don't want my game to be too short. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42468789/0b3710fa1d4b24e
