Release Date Announcement!

Release is upon us, my unemployed friends!

It feels surreal, exciting, and a little frightening all at once. The game will launch on February 5th, 2026.

I repeat: February 5th, 2026.

For the occasion, I’ve crafted a new trailer in the same spirit as my very first one.

Also, in a few days Unemployment Simulator 2018 will take part in the Steam Next Fest!

That's like the single greatest opportunity a small solo dev could have to showcase their game to the world. It's an event of the utmost importance!

For this reason, I'd ask for your support once more on this occasion. If you're reading this, I'm sure you already wishlisted the game, and for that I thank you. Now, if you could share the trailer or Steam page with your friends or anywhere on the internet, that would be great and much appreciated.

And, if you feel like it, consider giving the demo another try once the festival starts. It lasts one week starting from Monday, October 13th.

I'll report to you once again when it's all done, hopefully with even more good news.

In case the news is bad, though, I have my updated cover letter ready.
