Exophobia at DevGAMM Lisbon 2024!

Hey there!
You might have noticed the Exophobia page has a DevGAMM banner. That's right, I forgot to make an announcement again and the event ends tomorrow lol

Last week I had the pleasure of participating in DevGAMM Lisbon, a B2B game development event right in my country! And it was a blast!

Saw old and new friends, attended great talks, and even won a "Person of the Year award" at Spotlight Awards by Game Dev Lisbon (a local organisation for game devs here in Lisbon). It's great to see the recognition of my work by my colleagues and how the community is growing strong together!

The highlight of the event for me was meeting the legend John Romero! We had a little chat, he signed a poster and I gave him a physical copy of Exophobia for Switch (he prefered it over the PS5 one). What a cool guy and a dream come true!


And that's it, hope to have more news before the end of the year.
Checkout all the other European games at the DevGAMM Steam page.

Best,
Zarc

20% discount on Exophobia during Indie X event!

Hey, long time no see! I've been quite busy with my other job, and because of that and other life stuff, I've been offline a lot. But I want to bring you some good news when I can!

You might have noticed, but the game has been with 20% discount for the last days, because of Indie X, an indie game celebration event created here in Portugal. Exophobia is not part of this year's selection, but as a past participant it has been featured in the Indie X page!

This is your chance to play Exophobia until the end of the year, as no deeper discounts are planned until then!
Also take a look at all the games featured in Indie X page, with focus on the portuguese game selection (we have few games, but they are cool!)

See you soon,
Zarc
