Adventures With Anxiety Release Date: SEPTEMBER 17

This will be the last Progress Update before AwA... is... OUT! 🎉

Since the past update, I playtested & polished up the game + added sound effects + made more art and animation. Here's some art from the credits:

And here's what all the art & code & writing looks like together:

Whoof, it's alllll finally coming together...

Sep 2 - 8: 

• More playtesting & polishing

• Cuss-Free Mode (for teachers & counsellors who want to share this game with younger folk, without an awkward PTA meeting)

• Presskit / Trailer Video / GIFs

Sep 16 onwards:

• RELEASE INTO THE WILD (sep 17)

Also: during the 1st week of September, I'll send out surveys for those of you who picked the Custom-Drawn Character Reward tier. And by the end of the month, I'll send you all your Patreon rewards! (But of course, your names will all be in the credits of the game when it launches!)

Finally, I want to thank you all again so much for supporting me thus far. <3

I know I say that a lot, but this is especially true for Adventures With Anxiety. This has been the loooongest project I've done in years – most of my projects take 3 or 4 months, this has taken 7 – and I'm sorry for the wait, but grateful for your patience!

One out of 27 people in the world have an anxiety disorder. In the "developed world" it's one in 20. So, statistically speaking, a good chunk of you have an anxiety disorder and/or someone close to you does.

In either case, I hope AwA helps in some small way.
