📰 Happy to see Benign Land being covered in local newspapers such as the @belfasttelegraph.co.uk , because it is an experience that can mostly resonate with local audiences due to its site-specific context!

It's a great feeling to get such positive reactions so far! ✨

Last night we submitted Benign Land to be reviewed by STEAM, to get it approved for release! Also, in the previous weeks we've been very busy working on UI, Intro Screens, disclaimers, and the like :)

Watched Kneecap (2024) yesterday, what a good film! It's great to see difficult subjects like the Northern Ireland conflict being explored in such a fresh way (and not without a good dose of Irish self-deprecating humor!). Highly recommended 💥

For this #WishlistWednesay we want to confuse folks a bit and show *the other side* of Benign Land.

Now, on its way to STEAM in Q1 2025!➡️http://bit.ly/3VgJqhR

🌀 Let's try a first post in Bluesky!

Last week, I presented 'Benign Land' in Belfast—an immersive art installation blending gaming and art. Audiences could take a dreamlike trip through surreal landscapes made in UE5 related to Ireland's myths and history, via controller or by watching passively.
