[p]Rekindle your inner self. That is the message of Log Away, which we proudly reveal for the first time. [/p][p]Log Away is a cozy sandbox game where you build, furnish, and decorate your dream cabin amid nature’s beauty, from shores to mountain peaks, across varied seasons and weather. Your creativity has no limits, and neither do your time or resources, as the ultimate goal is simply enjoying and relaxing in solitude.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][h3]Play The Demo, Wishlist The Full Game[/h3][p]Steam's popular Next Fest has started, and Log Away is participating. Download it for free, enjoy, and add to your wish list the full game. The demo is much smaller, as it has a limited number of items, locations, interests, and tools at disposal, but it gives a nice glimpse at the gameplay and the relaxing vibe of the game.[/p][p][/p][h3]More Details[/h3][p]Log Away might be a simple game to play, but it features hundreds of items, a dozen locations, and many tools (which we call " the cozy tools") that allow you to personalize every moment as you play it. The game combines cozy building sandbox gameplay with decorating, furnishing, and unpacking mechanics. A fan fact is that its soundtrack was composed by Chris Haugen, the author whose songs were featured in the movie Into the Wild. Thematically, the movie and the game are a perfect match.[/p][p][/p][p]Enjoy and have fun with the demo, and stay tuned for news and updates. The full game is just around the corner, set to release next month![/p]
