A Little to the Left is joining PlayStation Plus!
The A Little to the Left vinyl sits on a table while the record plays lovely tunes in the background.
Rollens and I have entered the unpacking phase of our move. @maxinfernogames.bsky.social’s A Little to the Left soundtrack has us *locked in.*
Organized side on display, you mean business! ✨🧹✨
Thanks for picking it up! Curious to see what else you have in your collection.
We’re just gobsmacked to have a real-life vinyl! @justinkaras.bsky.social perfectly captured that slow sunny weekend morning vibes and @paulghammond.bsky.social art is so fun to explore. Lots of Easter eggs in there!
In order: Lukas Steinman (Programming Lead), Anne Macmillan (Creative Lead), Justin Karas (Sr.Artist + Sound), Paul Hammond (Sr.Artist), Daniel Crane (Tech Lead), Alex Smith (Sr.Gameplay Programmer), Zack Delaney (Gameplay Programmer), Isaac Young (Sr.Systems Programmer), Thomas Eaton (Programming)
We recently expanded our tiny team of 3, to 9 people! That may still be small but it’s a BIG deal to us!
We're excited to keep making fun games and have a better work/life balance with help from our talented team, and by moving to a 4-day work week. Excited to show you what we're working on next!
Buzzing right now. Just wrapped recording with @maxinfernogames.bsky.social talking about their incredible cozy hit, 'A Little to the Left.'
Lukas, Annie - you both are absolute rock stars!
Episode will be releasing on Tuesday!

Happy Halloween to all, and to all a ghoul night! Here’s a tormented pumpkin fam for your good luck. 🎃
Plus bonus Jack-o-melon (tell him you like his hat) ✨🍉🍌
In the spirit of spooky day, we made some dev playthrus of the Halloween-themed "Trick-or-Tidy" puzzles in A Little to the Left!
We talk about our love of the season, biggest fears (solicitors 🫣), and showoff fav costumes! Plus a very scary jack-o-melon cameo 🍉

What an honour it is to have A Little to the Left offered alongside the impeccable @unpackinggame.com by our friends at @witchbeam.com.au!
We've put together this bundle so you can move on in and test your organization skills in one tidy package!

It was so fun to attend the Video Game Arts Appreciate Night at the @agotoronto.bsky.social this past weekend!
It was so great to get to talk with ALTTL fans, amazing Canadian devs, arts supporters and those who are video game curious.
TY to @jimmunroe.net and Nathan Huisman for inviting us!

Umm, ALTTL somehow just hit a new all-time high for concurrent players some 3ish years after launch?!
We don't know what's going on... 🥸
SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT: A Little to the Left 🧩
Derek's pick for cozy marketing done right:
✨ Authentic filming
✨ Perfect "eye trace"
✨ Seamless cursor flow
✨ Invisible detail mastery
Thanks so much for the mention!
We use "eye trace" to direct focus toward key elements, but also reduce disorientation between cuts- it's supposed to convey "cozy", after all!
For a peak example of this technique, check our trailer for the Cupboards & Drawers DLC:

@derek-lieu.com's "eye trace" revelation: Cozy games often have better visual flow than action games 👀
Invisible improvements keep viewers engaged without them realising why.
Watch A Little To The Left's trailer. Notice the flow.

That would be really cool! Maybe something worth approaching them about!
Yep, Tunic will be featured there too, however it doesn’t appear that Andrew will be present at the event
Come meet us tomorrow at the AGO!
🧩✨Do you like to keep everything super tidy?
We have the perfect bundle for you! Is This Seat Taken? + A Little to the Left!

We had the fortune of chatting over breakfast about our fav puzzle games with the wonderful PapaPupp and Pokie during their holiday to our hometown!
PapaPupp has shared his love of ALTTL from the very start, and gifted us this beautiful gem from his collection! ✨💎✨

This is one of the 3 new levels included in the newly released Packed Update for A Little to the Left!
Find a spot for that mint, those old worn toothbrushes, or all-season glow-in-the-dark vampire teeth!
Perfect time to tidy up, ALTTL is -50% in the Steam Summer Sale (on all other platforms too).
Thanks so much for playing along with us these past 3ish years! 🥰
Wow, thank you for sticking with us! We’re excited to let you all in on what’s coming next… but for now, a bit of rest 🥱
It true, we’re moving! It’s all a little too serendipitous that these major milestones are aligning… the house was such an inspiration for the game, it’s fitting to have both the physical and digital spaces “packed up”… thus the name of the update!
We determined it would be irresponsible of us to release something that powerful
Oh we're right there with you... And that's the chipper cut! We had a version that was a real tearjerker that we backed away from- it just melted us
The Max Inferno devs make their own trailers and they're all such a delight.
The sound design in the intro to this shows great attention to the little details 😘👌🏼
Great timing! We're really excited about this update... it was an opportunity to make the best version of ALTTL! Thanks so much for playing ☺️
The Packed Update is available on Steam (PC/Mac), Nintendo Switch (compatible with Switch 2), Xbox, PlayStation 5.
We're also happy to announce it's available for iOS and Android too! We thought there might be a delay, but everything wrapped up nicely.
We hope you enjoy! ❤️
