Sorry to @JudithCollinsKC as I said “Minister Judith” in my speech. I got a bit word salad. Sometimes I skip words in my head as I am thinking of the next word. So proud of the team. It’s great to build on the work in space done so far in nz, and spread that digitally as well.
Kitten Space Agency has won the NZX Creative Technology Solution Award at the NZ Hi-Tech Awards. As Dean Hall (@rocket2guns), CEO of @rocketwerkz and @Ahwoo_Official, said on stage: games can inspire, and inspiration should be free. Thank you to everyone supporting the mission.

We added a native Linux deployment for Kitten Space Agency, which is free. Linux users have responded with thousands of dollars of contributions, including one of USD 1000. I think this will be the new way to make games like this. Unheard of lifetime customer values for us.

We built a studio, we made a game, and I'm really proud of both. Before we close the doors at Midsummer Studios I'd like to share a glimpse of Burbank, the game we poured our hearts into. It's like "Life Sims The Truman Show," but it's more than that. I believe people are storytellers, and I want them to share whatever stories and characters they can dream up. Burbank let's you do that. We have moments playing this game where characters come alive in a way we've never experienced. And for an old game developer like me that's special. What you're about to see is definitely pre-alpha. But this game was a dream of mine, our team made it come true, so watch and dream with us.

The extinction of the middle of the market for PC has spread to the successful tier of mid-market developers. This cannot now be reversed and will play out in real time.

This will lead to more consolidation in the market. Steam will continue to move toward being a place for AAA to get the best placement, and leverage for visibility. A few islands will remain, powered by publishers like Hooded horse or the largest independent middle developers.

We have never seen the PC industry without the middle. It is where all our beloved big studios came from. The change is now irreversible. The death of the middle has spread to the “successful middle”. The best of the best in the middle is now dying.

Kinda wild that in 2026 @Steam still don't have a "Survival" Genre or Sub-Genre. At least we have a "Spelling" sub-genre though.

User on r/kittenspaceagency posted this comparison of the actual Apollo Landing site matched in Kitten Space Agency. Wider shot is ingame, inset is the apollo photo. Best thing, you can try the pre-alpha now for free, ksa.ahwoo.com (credit: u/u/Longjumping-Box-8145)

Over the steam winter sale, ICARUS sold just under a million new base game units during the sale (984k). We also did quarter of a million DLC units (243k).
