It's the big one, and it feels a bit ridiculous to campaign for it but we keep being surprised at the astounding volume of support we receive so, let's go for it! It's not an easy sell with so many incredible games released this year across the whole gamut of studios; tiny debut indies and triple-A's alike, but here's why we would love you to consider us alongside the other games you've enjoyed playing this year. This game was crafted with players experience, enjoyment and comfort first and foremost. We knew we couldn't make a really long game with DREDGE without introducing artificial grinds, and we didn't want to do that, so hours were spent with our incredible playtesters making sure there was never a point where you didn't have anything to do, or felt you were being held back. We also didn't know how many people might pick up DREDGE but we wanted every single one of them to enjoy their time if possible. We're really proud not just of the accessibility options we were able to implement, but in the core design itself allow players to choose how much of the spookier side of things they interacted with, by giving them agency over whether they ventured out at night or not. If you have appreciated your time in DREDGE and think it's a game that many people could enjoy, please vote for us for [b]Game of the Year[/b] in the 2023 Steam Awards. - Joel, Alex, Nadia & Mikey
