Season: A letter to the future indie story-focused exploration game key artwork

[Update]: Season has now arrived, and I'm pleased to say it has done so alongside quite a positive reception!

Aiming for a more somber tone than the usual exploration and story focused adventure, Season: A letter to the future stars a young woman determined to document, photograph, and record the lives of everyday people before some kind of cataclysm washes them all away. Quite the contrast to the otherwise charming and cheery visuals!

What exactly is happening with the world, and more importantly why, is going to be up to your to discover by roaming across the land and talking to the various characters. There's only a couple of them around on account of the whole cataclysm thing, but the good news is that each one is unique and emotionally complex, so unraveling their life's story should be quite a ride.

You can get a bit of an idea of what these characters are like, as well as what sort of art style Season: A letter to the future is going for, through the story trailer below. Have a gander:

If you're interested in this kind of cheerful melancholy, you'll be pleased to hear that you won't have to wait all that long in order to get your hands on the game. To be more specific, Season: A letter to the future will be launching onto PC and PlayStation this January 31st, 2023.

Once it arrives, I'll make sure to let you know. Until then, you can read a few more tidbits about it over at Steam. Enjoy!
