Children of Morta covers the costs of development just a few days after release! [NEWS]

[Rufus Blackwood]

Hi there, Fam!

We have some great news that we want to share with you!

Children of Morta launched on September 3rd and has covered its cost of development after only a few days on the bestseller lists of online game stores like Steam and GOG.com! It was a long road for us - and after years of hard work and dedication, we could not be more pleased with game's success! Coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch this October 15th, we are looking forward to carrying this success onto consoles. The triumph of Children of Morta proves that strength and perseverance, much like the bonds of the Bergson family, are what it takes to overcome even the mightiest of obstacles. Thank you for being with us every step of the way, you're the best!

On top of that, we have continued our tradition of the “11 facts about” videos by creating a brand-new gameplay trailer explaining every bit of the game under the unsurprising title “11 facts about Children of Morta!”.

Cheers!

And you didn't have to sell out to epic to do it. Good for you!

Good to hear! The game deserves it, 100%.

And the fact that you were able to do this before any of the console release sounds quite promising.

Ah this is not what I thought when I read the word "breaks".
Congratulations guys, you've earned it!

You really should've gone with a different title.

I've been reading it as the first one for a couple days.. Likely you missed a few sales because of that :/

That's a valuable piece of feedback! It was pretty clear to us but indeed - could be interpreted differently, especially among posts about patches. I've fixed the title. :)

Great news , thanks for supporting PC platform first and
Steam + GOG Stores !


Question: What engine did you use ?
Godot / Unity / UE4 / Custom ?

Question: Will you be adding 2-4 player online before end of 2019?

Question: Can you please add Linux support
If the game supports OpenGL 4.x + SDL2 + openAL
then it shouldnt be too hard to add Linux support

UE4+Unity+Godot all support Linux platform

Hi there!

Thanks for your questions!

1. We've used Unity. You can learn more about it here: https://unity3d.com/2d-game-development-case-stories/children-of-morta

2. Online co-op is coming and is our priority if it comes to updating the game. However, we don't have a date set in stone, yet. And we are sticking to 2-players co-op.

3. We plan to add Linux support, yes. Again, can't promise any dates at the moment.

Cheers! :)

Just picked this game up last night after watching Jim Sterling's impressions video.
Congratulations! That's really great to hear that you've made back what you put into the game so quickly!
My girlfriend and I look forward to many more hours working together and I personally can't wait to see both what you have planned for this game, and what your team does next!
