A huge thank you to Screenwest for the funding and moral support needed to bring AETGM to the finish line.Their support did so much to encourage me to push on and release the game for everyone to enjoy.

If you haven't already got a copy, it's going on sale for the holidays and is a perfect time to grab a copy!

Supported through Screenwest's Digital Games Production Fund, Gentlegear Games' new PC puzzle game sees you become entangled in the project known as ‘The Great Machine'.

Thanks for your endless patience while we readied An Engineer and the Great Machine for release! In the spirit of projects everywhere, we're a bit late but we're worth the wait!

You, a new engineer at SKP, have become entangled in the project known as ‘The Great Machine’, stakes are high and instructions unclear. Design systems, decipher the red tape, and unravel the plot without falling prey to the bureaucracy.

Unfortunately due to platform and translation issues we are currently unlikely to make the 17th release date. This is very frustrating for us as it is entirely outside of our control. Hopefully I will be back with good news in the next 24 hours.

Just 8 days left till release: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2482340/An_Engineer_and_the_Great_Machine/

As we get closer to release, I've taken a moment to look back at how far the game has come in a year, it barely looks like the same game!
