Hello!

We have exciting news to share - last night at Spilprisen (The Danish Game Awards) Welcome to Elk won Best Visuals! 🥳🥳🥳

We're over the moon - it was a big surprise and we're so humbled and delighted to have won, especially being listed among such other strong nominees with their amazing, beautiful looking games.

It was really important for us to create a visual medium that could balance the true stories Welcome to Elk is based on. To make sure we could present our fun, drinking anecdotes with humour and that our more personal, tragic stories could be presented with empathy and compassion.

So we're thankful to the judges that they thought we accomplished this and presented us with this award!

⭐️⭐️⭐️
