We are extremely excited in announcing that we've been working on a new bizarre game called À la carte

A haiku to explain the mechanics:
feast of dishes
crackling ceramic tower
fumbling tumbling down

If you appreciate it, please wishlist it! 🙏

À la carte is a single-player game based on balance. Step into the black lacquered shoes of an Italian waiter, whose rumoured specialty is clearing the tables after dinner. Indulge the bizarre request...

one of the main inspirations for the aesthetics and the humor of our new game has been Eightball by Dan Clowes. Truly a gem, picked it up in a bookshop in Amsterdam and been coming back to it since

I've always dreamed of making a Lynchian videogame, but the fact that games are based on performance, clear goals, winning or losing, make it seem impossible...

David Lynch’s presence has been haunting video games for decades
Something interesting to think about.

a reminder that RAI, the Italian national TV, broadcasted a BASIC course in the 80's (with moustaches) to teach programming by demonstrating on Olivetti and Commodore machines

just imagine being in front of your TV and taking notes on your Commodore 64

a rhythm game where there's a very small guy inside a bomb, and he needs to defuse it by dancing on the switches and gears. On the outside, two eggheads discuss the philosophical implications of standing next to a bomb
