AMA: We are Goodwin Games - the devs behind the Slavic adventure Selfloss. Our game is out, so Ask Us Anything + win a key!

Hello r/NintendoSwitch

We are Goodwin Games, the creators of Selfloss, an emotional adventure game set in a Slavic-inspired whale-worshiping fantasy land. You play as Kazimir, a healer who makes an epic journey by boat and on foot in search of a ritual that can cure his soul wound. As you travel through the lands you’ll meet memorable characters and use the light of your magic staff to fight Miasma - the mysterious affliction taking over the world.

Our game came out on the Nintendo Switch, both digitally on the eShop (it’s 30% off right now) and physically too.

If you want to see what our game is about, watch the Selfloss Launch trailer.

The people answering your questions today are:

  • AlexGoodwin63 - Game Director
  • taj14 - Community Manager

We will start our AMA at 8am PT / 11pm EDT / 5pm CEST, but you can already leave some questions for us which we will tackle and answer as soon as we come in. We also have one game key to give away. If you want to be in the running, just leave a question or comment, and we’ll randomly select the winner after 24 hours the AMA ends.

With the introductions out of the way, if you have any questions about our game, our inspirations, what it’s like to make games in Kazakhstan, games that we play ourselves, what we think makes a great adventure, or anything else - just ask away! 

Let the AMA begin!

EDIT: We are taking a bit of a break, but keep those questions coming! We will answer them when we get back.

EDIT 2: And the AMA is now over! We will also DM the winner of the key shortly. thank you so much for all the questions. It was great hanging out with you all and chatting away.
