🦝🏡🚲 Minami Lane D-3 📅✨🌸

It took some time and a lot of discussion to settle on the name for our little game! Here is why we like it:

• Sounds cute with the "mln" sounds 🧋
• Quite unique ✨
• Fits the japanese-inspired setting 🍜
• Captures the "tiny street" pitch 🏡

Minami Lane is inspired by a lot of different games! Here are some notable ones:

Minami Lane is going to cost $4.99! ✨🦝

We set the price for our little game! It will be cheaper than a boba tea!

As a reminder, the game will stay small, with 5 missions and a sandbox mode at release, and minimal content added after that. Expect 2-4h of cuteness, cats and villagers complaining there is too much tea in their tea!

Only 18 days to release 🫢 we are doing our best to make the game as good as possible and we really hope you'll like it 💌

We are working with Wholesome Games!
Minami Lane is the 2nd game under the Wholesome Games Presents label.

I still can't really believe it's real 💖💌🌸

What a year! I started my indie dev journey, released Froggy's Battle on Steam, started working on Minami Lane with @blibloop, and learned a lot. I wrote a detailed wrap up of my year, along with figures and learnings on reddit if you are interested 📖✍️
