Since the initial Early Access release, the first entry in the Fullbright Presents series of short, strange games now features a new intro and ending sequence, new notes to find and Achievements to achieve, plenty of bugfixes and performance improvements, new spooky scare moments, more usability and controller features, and... Commentary Mode?! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3098700/Fullbright_Presents_TOILET_SPIDERS/ I'm excited to bring this weird gam

It’s in Early Access for just $5.99— with a launch discount of 17% off, and an additional discount if you complete the Fullbright Collection bundle! In the Summer issue of the Fullbright Newsletter (which you should sign up for if you haven’t!), I introduced the concept of Fullbright Presents: an ongoing series of small, strange, lo-fi games I'm producing as a solo developer, to be released into Steam Early Access as they roll off the production line. And now, just a few short months later, here it is! This isn't a super-rough alpha Early Access launch either, the game is actually a pretty pol

This patch only affects the Mac build of Tacoma; there was an issue with the game launching properly on MacOS Ventura, which as been addressed. If you still have issues with Tacoma launching on MacOS Ventura, please ensure your OS is updated to the latest version!

It’s free games day once again over on the Epic Games Store, readers. This time, Tacoma is up for grabs, the interstellar sleuth ’em up from the studio behind Gone Home. Isometric hack ‘n’ slasher Next Up Hero is free too. The pair of ’em are yours to keep if you grab them by this time next week, at which point they’ll go back up to £15 a pop. (more…)

You've probably heard by now that the Epic Games Store has gotten into the habit of giving away free games every week or so, and with the occasional hiccup here and there, this has been going on for about a year and a half now. Starting today, you can get the excellent Torchlight II free of charge, which means we now get a peek at the games that will be on offer next week: Tacoma and Next Up Hero. Tacoma is a forensic sci-fi adventure from Fullbright, the studio that made Gone Home. In Tacoma, you explore a empty space station, searching for clues about what happened to its missing crew. Over

One Off The List is our weekly list feature. Is there something you think doesn’t deserve to be on this list? Comment with your reasons why, and next week it may be struck off. May day! May day! It’s May Day, get it? I constructed this list of the 7 best distress calls in videogames so I could make this joke, and I refuse to back down now. Even if the 1st of May is associated with pagan spring festivities, and nothing at all to do with things going badly wrong in space or at sea. Even if the piece of radio lingo “mayday” has more to do with the French term “m&rs

Hi there! If you already own Tacoma, you may notice a large patch from Steam today. But, despite the patch size, it should keep everything pretty much exactly as it was: we've updated the game to be compliant with MacOS Catalina's new security requirements, which required upgrading the game to a new version of Unity-- which means practically every file got touched in the process, causing a large patch size on Steam. But, everything should work the same, just maybe running a little smoother, with a few bugs fixed that we found along the way, and better compatibility for Xbox and DualShock contr

Gone Home makes Edge Magazine's list of "The 12 Games that Defined the 2010s!" https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32980586/c4a5b20291dd7259fd592998de8c8bdedef149e8.jpg 2019 is coming to a close, and with it the end of a decade. Edge Magazine is closing out the year with a very special edition: their "12 Games that Defined the Decade," each given its own unique variant cover of the print edition-- and Gone Home made the list! We're incredibly honored to share space with unforgettable games like Spelunky, The Walking Dead, Dark Souls, Breath of the Wild, and more.

We've done a little late-stage housekeeping, and a small patch is now available for Tacoma. The following quality-of-life issues have been addressed.
