Hello everyone!

As usual, we’ve missed quite a few monthly newsletters (sorry… you should be used to that by now). But there is some new stuff coming around for you guys!


Hi everyone, I’m the new intern at Nova-Box! My name is Ophélie, and I will be the one writing to you from now on. I'm thrilled to be joining the team and bringing something new to our communications. You’ll be seeing more of me around the New Year!


So what’s happening with End of Lines? The avid readers of our newsletters are already aware of the challenges we've faced putting our game out there, in the public eye. Well, Nico and the team are putting together some brand-new content for you guys! I can’t reveal any details just yet, but you can expect more information around December/January.

We’ve also decided to reopen our demo in the coming months. Steam seems to boost games with demos through its algorithm, and we're hoping it will have a similar effect on our game. If you play it, you'll be able to save your progress for the final version of End of Lines!

The start of the autumn term means welcome back to our co-working space in Bordeaux. We were thrilled to catch up with our friends from other studios after some well-deserved reconnecting with Mother Nature. As you can imagine, when we’re not taking care of our one-year-old baby (End of Lines), we’re in full creation mode with our next game or we're attending events.


Our writer, Geoffroy, was invited to participate in a roundtable discussion on how to manage the transition between different projects at HORIZON(S), a two-day event for game industry decision-makers. He was with Sabrina Alessandri of Tower Five[www.towerfive.com] from La Rochelle and David Duriot of LA POULE NOIRE[www.lapoulenoire.fr] from Angoulême.

Now the question is, how does this relate to our studio? Well, you see, we have two creative directors, Geoffroy and Nico, who switch roles for each new project. For instance, Nico served as the creative director for End of Lines, while Geoffroy is currently leading our new project. This means we have shorter waiting times between productions, allowing for a smoother transition and providing our studio with greater artistic diversity.


To Hell With the Ugly is a point-and-click adventure game based on the novel of the same name by Boris Vian. You play Rock Bailey, a young man who's strikingly handsome and rather shallow, who gets kidnapped after leaving a jazz club. Navigate through bar brawls and a police investigation to assist Rocky…

Empire of the Ants set out on an epic adventure into the microscopic world in this photorealistic strategy game. Play as a brave ant and lead your colony through the perils of the forest and its diverse wildlife.
