Asterism is launching 17th January 2025!
Hello!
It’s been a little while since my last email, I hope you’ve all been well :)
Firstly I have some very exciting news to share, which is that I’ve announced a release date for Asterism - which is 17th January 2025, i.e. in just under 6 weeks 😮
Here’s the important links for where you’ll be able to get the game and the album:
Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2187450/Asterism/
Itch: https://shimmerwitch.itch.io/asterism
Bandcamp (you can pre-order from today if you like): https://shimmerglitch.bandcamp.com/album/asterism
There will also be a physical CD of the album to come, which I will update you on once I have an exact date for that too, but it should be around the same time.
There’s no behind the scenes dev blog this month, as I actually finished most of the development a while back and have just been polishing / fixing things! But I wanted to share with you a talk that I gave at A MAZE festival (and also a couple of places in Dundee!) on the art of the game, which goes into some of the techniques that I’ve written about before, as well as a cool Asterism installation I got to create recently at Next Level festival in Dortmund.
Here’s the talk:
And the installation:
Thanks!
