We have a couple of great news we’d like to share with you.

Last week, our latest game, Wednesdays, received two awards at the Pégases – the ceremony that celebrates the best French video games each year. We won “Best accessibility” and “Games beyond entertainment”.

And yesterday, Wednesdays won another price at the world’s most prestigious International Games Festival, held yearly during the Independent Games Festival (IGF), in San Francisco. This time, we put our hands on the Audience award – which is even better, considering the theme the game explores.

Pierre, Wednesdays’ author and game designer, gave an acceptance speech that made us all very proud.

We are thrilled and proud to announce that Wednesdays, our game addressing sexual violence against minors, has been nominated at the prestigious IndieCade festival.

IndieCade is an event that, every year, stands out for its bold selection of independent games exploring the medium in new and interesting ways. The festival has chosen Wednesdays to be featured in two categories: “Impact” and “Narrative.”

Fingers crossed!

Like so many children, Tim was a victim of sexual abuse. Twenty years later, while playing Orco Park, a videogame from his childhood, his memories will come rushing back along with a flood of questions : How could this have happened? Who knew? How has it shaped him? What does “normal” even mean?

Written by Pierre Corbinais (Haven, Road 96: Prologue, Bury Me, My Love), Wednesdays seeks to raise awareness about child sexual abuse through a surprisingly uplifting story.

Wednesdays is available on PC and Mac (for now!), via Steam or Itch.io.
