Links, unlock keys and further information will automatically be provided by the demo as soon as 20 minutes have elapsed.

“Except for launch day itself, the Steam Next Fest will be the biggest event in my game’s life cycle. With thousands of people watching me stream live and visiting my game page in one week, it’s the perfect opportunity to reach loads of potential real-world Meeps. It’s incredibly exciting to experience this dream becoming a reality!”, says Gideon Griebenow, All-Round Tinkerer of Re: cOg Mission.

The game beat out around 5400 other games to win the #PitchYaGame Industry Pick in June of 2021. Support in terms of wishlists and community feedback has been steadily growing so be sure you take part today.

About Re: cOg Mission:
Gideon Griebenow, Re: cOg Mission’s solo developer, joined the game development party quite late in life after obtaining a PhD in Credit Risk Analysis, spending 10 years in that arena and subsequently founding his own consultancy business. And then, three years later, he watched a Unity tutorial, and World Turtles slowly but surely took center stage, until taking over completely. What he finds most appealing about game development is also one of the hardest things about it: the extensive variety of skills, knowledge, experience and involvement required to bring everything together into a meaningful, enjoyable whole that can teleport you to somewhere else for a while. There’s certainly no room for being disinterested!
