Phew, I knew this would be a rare tangle with "the feels" but oof and grrrrr and ahhhh is the only appropriate review of this stunning piece of real life story telling. More people need to share their stories like this. Amazing work by @alyxjones.bsky.social and @silverscriptgames.bsky.social ♥️

I had to recommend a game I’ve been playing called “The Quiet Things”, by @silverscriptgames.bsky.social It’s heavy. It’s hard.You will cry and possibly not have words for the emotion of it. You will feel raw when you’re done. Games like this need to be made. Thank you, @alyxjones.bsky.social

There's a lot of great stuff coming out in these next few weeks. I implore you not to forget about The Quiet Things from @silverscriptgames.bsky.social. They've been fearless about putting themselves out there and dealing with setbacks (the BAFTA trailer debacle for one), all to tell a story 🧵
Just finished The Quiet Things from @silverscriptgames.bsky.social and honestly, I think I need a few days away... What a powerful way to share a traumatic story spanning across many years. Stories like this need to be shared... and all I can say is, well done and I'm sorry this happened to you.
Hi everyone! Thank you so much for your incredible patience while we dealt with issues on Steam. Thankfully the build is now approved and we can finally announce that our little game will finally be available on Steam on the 18th June (5pm UK time). WOOHOO! 🎉 #indiegame #gamedev
CW: abuse, suicide A labour of love over many years, here’s finally the game that I’ve been wanting to come out for so long. Based on the real life diary accounts of Alyx and featuring a full cast of amazing actors bringing a story aching to be told to life. An absolute privilege to work on.
It's surreal that launch day is here! It's so wild to see OUR GAME live on Xbox!!! To every single person who has helped and supported this game over the many years of development, we cannot thank you enough. Itchio: silverscriptgames.itch.io/the-quiet-th... Xbox: www.xbox.com/en-US/games/...
OMG we did it, over the line, shipped it, 'done'! Managing a full playthrough in the last few weeks has made me realise what a special game this tiny team has made. A powerful, emotional, and thought-provoking story. Seeing it all come together as these things do has been quite the rollercoaster. ❤️
