After three years of work, AETHUS is out... NOW! ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿš€โ›๏ธ
This is my love letter to survival-crafting games, and it's a full 1.0 package - no EA!

$15.99 at launch for 30+ hours of proper story-driven gameplay.

Can you help me spread the word about my little indie game?

So awesome, Danny.

My own indie game launches today, straight to 1.0 with no Early Access! I think you'd probably like it :)

AETHUS, my solo-indie debut, launches straight to 1.0 (no Early Access!) TOMORROW, March 6th!

Story is so often an afterthought in survival-crafting games...

Not so in AETHUS - fully voice-acted, there's always a narrative reason to head underground or build up your mining base!

I'm super, super happy. It was all organic as well as I saved up all my creator coverage for launch (tomorrow!) so I'm crazy chuffed!
