1 year of Toumayhem


Happy Birthday, Toumayhem. I can't believe it's been a year since the day of the release...

It's been my biggest game so far (and longest to make...) and also the only one technically commercial one, so I always have to remind people this is not my job and I just have very big and passion projects (and the price tag is there to try and get even with the development cost). It's insane to me I managed to reach out to so many people with something I mainly did for myself and "uhm whoever has... some time... maybe...?", even if the numbers I got are kind of laughable in the grand scheme of things (if you want to do this seriously you should really not cut on marketing).

So! What am I bringing you today? Absolutely nothing, I ain't paid enough to do shit. This is what I've said to myself last night as I finished making 25 pages of a Toumayhem booklet, with:

  • Detailed character info and some additional fun trivia
  • All portraits, backgrounds and various concept arts I collected through the years (blows a kiss to my artists)
  • FINALLY, A FULL GUIDE TO THE GAME (this is also going to be distributed separately, as I'd like to sell the booklet but I want the guide to be available to everyone)
  • And that's it, I think

So the booklet is coming out soon, I just need some more time to work on it. I love Toumayhem and I'm so happy it was well received, but I'm just a composer who makes games as a hobby and such a big project spiraled me through some serious burn out. That's why there will be no more patches to the game, not even for accessibility issues. I've had one sitting on my hard drive for 10 months but I really cannot afford to test the whole game again and it's a save-breaking update, so... thank you for understanding. Making games sure is hard! But the effort was well worth it, this time.

On the other hand, the Toumayhem soundtrack is now available on all major streaming services! Listen to it on Spotify, Apple Music, Youtube Music or whatever.

Hopefully the booklet will be ready before the end of the month! In the meantime, Toumayhem's 25% off for the rest of the week as a celebration. Tell your friends!
