We had so much fun making LIFTED and wanted to share more of the fun with you!Today, the doors of the elevator are opening to our dear friend and composer Fabio Marchionni and his breathtaking soundtrack.

Fabio Marchionni's soundtrack is a throwback to the blockbuster film era of the 80's and 90's and has been handcrafted since 2018! It's been quite the journey and we couldn't be more thrilled to share it with you. We've also included some bonus tracks that, although they didn't make it into the game, are true to the world of LIFTED.…

• LIFTED is out NOW! - 22 July 2026

Ari still has no idea what he signed up for. Prof. R insists that's within tolerance. We're opening the doors. LIFTED is live on Steam and Steam Deck right now. What you're walking into You play as Ari Buktu, a slacker swept up in his physics professor's manic, love-fueled scheme to steal a priceless artifact from ancient history.
