I wrote about We Grew Up In War last year and wishlisting it would help their noble goal immensely!

We Grew Up in War on Steam

This narrative adventure tells stories of children from Sarajevo and Ukraine based on local’s testimonies. See contemporary war from an overlooked perspective, highlighting resilience and imagination ...

We’re so happy to be #Unity For Humanity recipients with We Grew Up in War! 🎉 Thanks to @unity.com we’ll be able to create an even more impactful #indiegame about kids from Ukraine and Bosnia. Congratulations to everyone else! More below.

Please excuse that we’ve been less active recently – we simply had a lot of work to do! Five game projects require a lot of writing, designing, programming and artmaking. More info soon, we promise! (Pictured are our artists Noemi & Jitka) #gamedev #indiedev

We’ve improved the animation of Luna the dog from our game We Grew Up in War. What do you think? 🐕 This is from a child’s fantasy minigame, set in 2014 in Ukraine... #indiegame #gamedev #indiegames #dog

This scene from We Grew Up in War is set in Mariupol & inspired by the Mariupol theatre, which was used as a shelter until destroyed by Russia, killing many civilians. Anna & Valerie are anxious, waiting for a text from their father. But they need to charge the phone first... #indiegame #ukraine

In We Grew Up in War, you have to assemble each memory first. We designed a custom system in @unity.com that generates outlines you have to fit. Here’s a sneak peek. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

When we started developing We Grew Up in War, we hoped the war in Ukraine will be over well before we finish. Our game is dedicated to all those, whose lives were affected by the war that now enters its fourth year, instigated by the cruel Russian regime.

In our sixth year of existence, we have many plans for many games. This picturesque group photo might be a hint about one of them – we are currently starting to work on it with a help of an extra talented Noemi Valentíny. And we can’t wait to tell you more. Stay tuned.

And last, but not least, we had to document how Attentat 1942 depicts alcohol for the Indonesian regulators.🍸It can’t be helped – herr Sýkora drinks cognac when he’s insidously trying to seduce your grandma. #indiedev #gamedev #history #indiegame

New Indonesian rating system need us to upload the most "extreme" content from our games. And we can’t decide if angry gestapo dog from Attentat 1942 is, indeed, "horror"... #indiegame #indiedev #indiegamedev #history

At our studio, we often like to do create games the evidence-based way, testing if our idea for a transformative game works – and love spreading our knowledge. So if you care about narrative games and their transformative potential, read the recently published paper about We Grew Up in War👇

MEMENTOES Project@mementoes.bsky.social · 8mo ago

Read “Promoting Positive Attitudes Through Narrative-Driven Digital Games,” by our partners @charlesgames.bsky.social & the War Childhood Museum, which explores how narrative-driven games can positively influence players’ attitudes. diglib.eg.org/items/... #gamedev #indiedev

New Indonesian rating system requires you to upload snippets of the "extreme" content of your game. Alas, Attentat 1942 has historically-accurate depiction of cigarettes, earning it "drugs" label. #indiegames #indiedev #history The scene in question:

Feedback time: Do you like our new, animated dialo-emotion options we just put into We Grew Up in War? ☁️ #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

The winter has come to Playing Prague alongside SEVEN new languages! 🌨️ Our city puzzler is now available in Dutch, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Italian, Spanish, & French! Download the snowy update now (links below). We can’t wait for new player to try the game and their feedback.

This is how anxiety looks like in We Grew Up in War. Melisa arrives in a refugee camp in Germany & even though she’s a teenager, it’s a scary place... Our demo starts with her leaving Bosnia alongside her mum: partner.steamgames.com/apps/landing... #indiegame #indiedev #indiegames
