Hey there! My name is Nanda and I am making the bulk of this game by myself. Still, I have a ton of help from my composer Narbaiz, as well as many other amazing friends that help me with specific features, feedback, advice and just keeping me sane throughout this journey. On top of that I couldn't be more grateful to my publisher Spelkollektivet. Without them this project just would not be possible and their respect for my creative decisions is an absolute gift. I really hope to make this game something special and take you on a journey. Thank you to everyone who is supporting me or even just gives this game a glance <3
