Sorry We're Closed News

We are thrilled to announce that Sorry We're Closed won "Best Video Game" at Aesthetica Short Film Festival!

Founded in 2011, Aesthetica is a BAFTA-Qualifying international film festival which takes place annually in York, UK. In recent years they have added a Games Lab to the festival, "Video games are an immersive experience. We see the journeys into narrative design as a crucial way to understand the way that storytelling is evolving."

It is lovely news for us to receive in our launch week - we can't wait to share the game with you all on Thursday!

Hey cursed vessel,

We are wrapping up Steam Next Fest with a Sorry We’re Closed game article mockup!

Remember those old, amazing game articles that came in old school magazines like Nintendo Power or Game Informer? Our artist Drew, designed a Sorry We’re Closed version! Seeing those old articles brings back some nostalgia. I wonder how much I’d have loved this game if it came out in 1996.



We are less than a month away from the Sorry We’re Closed launch… I hope you don’t let Michelle down and succumb to the curse put on her.

If you played the Sorry We’re Closed demo and had some burning questions about the game, development, art, etc. then I am hosting an Ask the Dev session on the Akupara Discord where you can get those questions answered.

If you haven’t had the chance to try out the Sorry We’re Closed demo then be sure to check it out!
