It's genuinely one of my favorite game soundtracks ever." bandcamp: https://muuutsch.bandcamp.com/album/nuts-original-soundtrack As a reminder, the best place to learn about these types of updates is through our mailing list! http://nuts.game

• NUTS is out! - 10 February 2021

  Hey everyone, Joon here, one of the developers. I just wanted to make a quick update, to say thank you, and to list a few cool reviews that appeared, in case anybody wants to know why they should play NUTS :) So first of all, if you're reading this and you bought the game, thank you so much! I never thought this many people would enjoy our experimental squirrel adventure, but here we are! People are playing, and finishing it, which means a lot to me and the rest of the team. And here are some cool things: 🌟 Over 100 people have streamed NUTS on Twitch! The game has a page that combines them all, right here. I do warn you, if you haven't played, or finished the game, there are a lot of spoilers in these streams so be careful. You don't need anybody else to answer the question "what are the squirrels up to" but yourself! 🌟 Vice Games reviewed NUTS “Its visual puzzles remain modest where…

• Features and Fixes - 10 February 2021

  Hey everyone, thank you so much for all the love and reviews so far. We are thrilled with the reception, and want to keep making the game better in response to community feedback. This patch includes - Some streamers with Ultrawide monitors requested a way to play in windowed mode. It can be found in the settings menu. - Added keyboard redundancies for AZERTY keyboards (Q/A and Z/W are the same), and an alternate way to use the handheld devices: you can use H to cycle handhelds if you can't use alphanumerics. - Dutch language had a few changes to soft-lock (e.g. Player can't hang up phone) in a few places., caused by the localization entries not having exact matches of line-count. I built a safety check and also combed over the localization file and pulled out all the offending entries. Shouldn't happen again! - The fax achievement was broken, and is now fixed! Sorry about this. - Fixed…

• NUTS: Coming to Steam REAL SOON! - 29 January 2021

  Hello there squirrel fans, After a successful January launch on Apple Arcade, we’re delighted to be bringing NUTS to your eyeballs on February 4th 2021! We’ve come a long, long, LONG way since our demo version, and we’re so excited for you to get embroiled in the mysteries of Melmoth Forest. We think it’s a pretty neat game. But don’t take our word for it! Since we’ve been out on Apple Arcade for a week now, we’ve gathered a few press reviews. Here are some of the words that’ve been bringing tears to our little eyes: “I finished Nuts a few days ago and I still want to go back” Christian Donlon, Eurogamer “Without a hint of hyperbole, sound designer Almut Schwacke (who also did a solid turn as the voice of Nina) has produced some of the best foley work I’ve ever heard.” Nate Crowley, Rock Paper Shotgun “NUTS feels like a great exemplar of the fact that developers don’t need to give playe…

• Nuts launch date trailer introduces a big mystery: Why do these squirrels have TNT? - 18 January 2021

  My dad spent a not-inconsiderable number of hours waging war against the local squirrel population over control of his bird feeders. He fought bravely, and resolutely, and ultimately he lost: After an incident involving an angry squirrel who got loose in the back of his truck, he decided the whole thing wasn't worth the hassle. Detente was achieved: The squirrels were permitted to go about their business more or less unmolested, and somehow life went on pretty much as it always had... Read more.

• The best free demos from the Steam Autumn Festival - 9 October 2020

  Steam returns with actual hundreds of free demos for its Autumn Festival. I am but one woman, so I could never get through them all, but I have played what I would characterise as a lot over the past two days. My own personal labour of Hercules was undertaken so that I could bring you, the reader, a list of my favourite demos to provide, if not an exhaustive list, then at least a jumping off point. I’ve got something for all of yez, gentle pals. Puzzle games? RPGs? Action? Strategy? Why yes, even that. I’ve got an EDM murder rave, dressing up in pre-revolutionary Paris, ripping up legal documents as a cute turnip, and rodents you should live in fear of. So many games! Your favourite is sure to be among them. (more…)

• Play the NUTS demo and wishlist us! - 7 October 2020

  In this demo, you'll get to play a beta-version of the first level of the game. Jump right into the action and the story of NUTS. It should take you about 30 to 45 minutes to complete. NUTS is a mystery adventure about surveilling a community of wild and mischievous squirrels, deep in the woods. NUTS grew from an experiment about watching and tracking squirrels using remote recordings. The game plays creatively with the player's gaze, splitting it between the character's eyes and various recording devices, and turns the simple act of looking into a series of careful framing decisions. To play NUTS is to care about perspective, sight-lines, timing and framing in a unique way. The story tackles important contemporary themes - while the setting is natural and peaceful, it interrogates modern technological mediation and urban existence with topics including abuse of power, environmentalism…
