Repeated intro

Hello Fossil Questers, It's been a productive couple of months for our little team and we've hit a very big milestone.. We hit 10 000 wishlists! Is this a dream? Some error in the Steam backend?! Somebody pinch us!! We really can't believe we have already hit the big 10k milestone. Without a demo release or a big showcase feature even!

  • UI and audio
addedAll this support has come mostly from people who played the prototype on itch or GX Games (check it out here if you haven't already: https://unsigneddoublecollective.itch.io/fossil-quest ) and we really can't thank you all enough for coming over to Steam and wishlisting the project. Steam post imageSteam post imageWishlists help in so many ways, especially for a tiny team like us. These wishlists numbers helped us to secure a little bit of extra funding to support development so the full game of Fossil Quest is looking very secure - All thanks to you! We were also in our first Steam festival - #Relaxing fest. This definitely gave the game a little boost and it was nice looking through all the other relaxing games that took part. We made a little round up of our favorites here: Relaxing Fest - Favourite Games! Steam post image So, what else is happening?! We have been working on new digging mechanics, designing how the new dig site locations work and look, updating our UI, doing lots of concept work and making new mini-games. We will be posting a BIG dev log update at the end of next month with all that and the last 3 months progress so you can see a proper deep dive into what we've been cooking up. This is just a little sneak peak: How cute are these little shrubs? Steam post image Some environment look development happening Steam post image New digging movement mechanics in the works! Steam post image Can you tell what this is?? One of my favourites! Steam post imageIf you have any questions you are always welcome to email us or pop in to the discord to chat. Lots of love, Romy and Lasse
