Inspired by children’s literature and animated storytelling, The Day I Became a Bird follows Frank, a quiet child navigating the complicated emotions of his first crush. The object of his affection is Sylvia, a girl who seems far more interested in birds than anything else. Determined to catch her attention, Frank embarks on a gentle journey through classrooms, playgrounds, and imaginative dreamlike spaces.

The game blends exploration, collection, and light puzzle-solving with a painterly visual style designed to feel like stepping inside a storybook. Players experience Frank’s attempts to overcome shyness and express himself, turning simple moments into a heartfelt narrative about growing up, vulnerability, and courage.

The project is based on a storybook created by French author Ingrid Chabbert and Spanish illustrator Guridi. The original work was later adapted into an animated short by PASSION Animation, and the game builds on that foundation by combining the visual style of the book and film with interactive storytelling.

Rather than focusing on fast-paced gameplay, The Day I Became a Bird leans into atmosphere, emotion, and quiet moments. The experience is designed to be welcoming to players of all ages, offering a reflective alternative to more action-heavy titles while emphasizing mood, curiosity, and the universal feeling of wanting to be seen by someone you care about.

The game will launch in two editions. The standard edition includes the base game, while the Feathered Adventurer Edition bundles the game with a digital artbook, the original soundtrack, and the animated short film. Players who purchase either edition on Steam or PlayStation will also receive the film.

Ahead of its release, The Day I Became a Bird has also been selected as part of the official lineup for the London Games Festival 2026 and will be playable during the festival’s New Game Plus event on April 16 and 17.

Blending strategic, turn-based CRPG combat with roguelite replayability, Valor of Man puts decision-making front and center. Every run is built around smart positioning, careful planning, and discovering powerful party synergies that can mean the difference between victory and a wipe.

Build Your Party, Master the Board

Players assemble a squad of four heroes from a roster of twelve distinct classes, each branching into specialized subclasses. Whether you lean toward an archmage commanding destructive magic or an assassin striking from the shadows, team composition plays a critical role in survival.

Across each run, you’ll shape your build from a massive pool of more than 750 spells, attacks, items, and artifacts. Reactive enemies force you to adapt constantly, and no two encounters unfold quite the same way. Every move triggers a response, turning each battle into a layered tactical puzzle where thinking several turns ahead is essential.

The combat system is designed to reward mastery. Understanding enemy behavior, planning positioning, and sequencing abilities correctly will separate seasoned tacticians from the fallen.

Designed for Replayability

Replay value is at the heart of the experience. Battles take place on an evolving board inspired by tabletop design, ensuring that strategy shifts from run to run. With ten escalating difficulty levels, the game steadily raises the stakes, pushing players to refine their builds and sharpen their tactical awareness.

On day one, the full release will include a large selection of unlockable content, extensive build variety, and full controller support. Steam Deck compatibility is also confirmed, making it easy to take the adventure on the go.

Players eager to get an early taste can jump into the extended demo during Steam Next Fest, running from February 23 through March 2.

Are you planning to dive into Valor of Man at launch, or will you test your strategy skills in the demo first?

In Folly Of The Wizards, you step into the pointy shoes of a clumsy wizard’s apprentice, fumbling your way through the ranks of a shadowy magical cult. Armed with unstable spells and questionable judgment, you’ll dive into procedurally generated dungeons packed with bizarre enemies, magical mishaps, and slapstick chaos.

Expect runs filled with unpredictable spellcasting, platforming challenges, and tough decisions—like whether to befriend (or betray) the eccentric cultists you meet along the way. With more than 100 unique items to collect and 10 hand-drawn regions to explore, every attempt promises new surprises, fresh laughs, and a high chance of blowing yourself up… again.

Key Features

• Chaotic Spellcasting – Sling hilariously unstable spells with wild, often disastrous effects

• Roguelike Platforming Action – Cast, jump, and dodge through shifting dungeons

• Hand-Drawn Whimsy – A vibrant illustrated world full of fantasy oddities
