Hello everyone!

Last week we teased you with a screenshot of our website and showed you a WIP GIF from the gameplay trailer. Now we’d like to present to you the final versions of both projects!

You might wonder: “Why is this important? Every game has a trailer and/or a website. Why making such big of a deal of it and writing about it for several weeks?”

From the point of view of a game developer, these are the assets that will be used during the next several months to introduce a game to a new audience. Imagine you’ve spent months of work on a project, and when it comes to an end, you don’t have the means to show it to people for whom it was designed - and its release goes unnoticed. The website and the trailer will be our words to tell a story of Will and his quest to save lives on the Suicide Bridge.

With the help of the website and the trailer, we will be able to reach potential players and present to them Wait! Life is Beautiful! in a concise manner. That’s why finishing the trailer and the website is such an important milestone for us – we will need these assets later.

We decided to tell more about it to you, a person who regularly checks up on our progress every Friday ;)

Next week we will go more in-depth and prepare a special article providing insight into the development.

Thank you for being with us,
Your W!LIB! Team!

Wait! Life is Beautiful! is released! A message from the developer is attached to the post. Unfortunately, we had some problems with the payment via GameJolt, so the release here will happen later, but we are already out on Steam with a 10% discount!

Here's a screenshot from the beginning of the game that you'll be able to see only after the whole game is out. For now if you play the demo you'll start on the Suicide Bridge right away. #ScreenshotSaturday #WLIB #SuicidePrevention

One of the characters that you will eventually encounter in #WLIB is the Puppet Man. He doesn't know anymore if he's a human or a puppet. Most importantly, he doesn't like kids. He never did. #ScreenshotSaturday #PixelArt

Moonlight Peaks is a life-sim where you can live your magical farm life!

In the game, herb gardens are a great place to grow crops. Use this one to complete the quest "Grow Supernatural Crops!" before it expires.

✨ Play the demo: https://bit.ly/MoonlightPeaks ✨

Here is another haunting dream that Will will eventually have. All of the dreams have a specific meaning, what do you think is the meaning of this dream? #WLIB #SuicidePrevention

Shop Crush is a hybrid visual novel, where you connect with customers, learn their characters, and untangle the dark, Literal Illusion puzzles about them.

The game's playtest has begun. We're celebrating with a quest!

Did you know that we're on several platforms? You can also find #WLIB on Steam and Itch io! Are there any platforms that we've missed that you'd like to see us on? #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt #SuicidePrevention

Core to our game is gradually experiencing how Will (who set out to help others) gradually becomes the one that needs help as his mental state slowly slips. One of the ways that we show this is through the dreams that he has. #SuicideAwareness #PixelArt

@MidnightForge is a Jolter to Watch and the solo horror dev behind games like Those Who Dwell and Nowhere! Follow @MidnightForge and the Those Who Dwell game page before the quest ends on March 17 and you'll get Coins!

The more people that Will helps, the more his psyche will gradually suffer. This will gradually manifest itself as vivid dreams. Here is the first one, what do you think is going on here?
