Hey awesome gang!!


As we wrap up an unforgettable 2024, the entire Altered Alma team wants to wish you a Happy Holidays and an awesome new Year! This year has been one of the most exciting in our studio’s history, and it’s all thanks to you—our amazing community.
Your support has been the driving force behind every milestone we’ve achieved, and we are endlessly grateful for every pledge, comment, and a bit of enthusiasm you’ve shared with us. So, let’s take a moment to celebrate what we’ve accomplished together in 2024!


It’s been a whirlwind year for Altered Alma, and we’ve loved every second of sharing the journey with you. Let’s look back at some of the highlights:

Taking Altered Alma to one of Europe’s biggest industry events was an incredible experience. Meeting fans, developers, and showcasing Neo Barcelona to a global audience was unforgettable. 
One special highlight was meeting Amelia Jones (Singer of Hollow Knight, Slay the Princess, Alan Wake 2 and many more), who also played Altered Alma during the event, and now we have the honor to have her as a Guest Singer for our soundtrack.
Thank you, everybody who visited our booth at Malmö, Sweden.

In August, we travelled to Cologne, Germany to showcase Altered Alma on the Indie Arena Booth, and we unveiled Altered Alma with our Kickstarter announcement and Demo Trailer (That you can still play). It was thrilling to finally share the game with the world, and the response blew us away, thank you for sharing that excitement with us.
Taking Altered Alma internationally and introducing it to players at G-Fusion was an amazing opportunity to connect with even more passionate fans of indie games. We didn’t expect such a great reaction, and we really appreciate it, as you have no idea.
Our hometown event was especially close to our hearts. Sharing the game with our local community in Neo Barcelona’s real-life counterpart was a surreal and emotional highlight. We took our signed banner home to remember all of you that came to visit and tried the demo live with us and share your thoughts.
These events reminded us how universal the love for storytelling and games truly is. Whether we met you at one of these events or online, every interaction has fueled our determination to make Altered Alma a masterpiece.

Our Altered Alma Kickstarter journey was nothing short of phenomenal. We started with a goal of €40,000, and thanks to you, we surpassed that number in 6 hours like it was nothing (even if the Kickstarted website gave up for a little while with all of you coming at the same time). 
And then we reached over €260,000! On Kickstarter and Backetkit all together!! You will never stop to amaze us, you are awesome!
The overwhelming support allowed us to unlock exciting community and stretch goals—like having the amazing Amelia Jones to be part of our soundtrack with her talented performance, English voice acting, spaceship decoration, our beloved pet system on the Esperanza and many-many more…
Thank you for believing in our vision and helping us make it a reality. Every pledge has brought us one step closer to building the cyberpunk Metroidvania of our dreams!
As development continues, we’ve been pouring our passion into creating the stunning, unique environments of Neo Barcelona. Here’s what’s on the horizon:
Inspired by the iconic park designed by Antoni Gaudí, this biome features lush greenery interwoven with surreal architecture. Organic shapes and mysterious pathways invite exploration, offering a contrast to the urban cyberpunk aesthetic.
Hunt or be hunted on this wild gardens where only the strong will survive

The city’s shoreline is reimagined as a bustling, cyberpunk-infused district. Amid the neon lights reflecting on the waves, you’ll find vibrant life, hidden secrets, and danger lurking in the depths.
Visit landmarks like Port Vell, Hotel Vela, Rambla del Mar and many more iconic places…

This biome dives into the rich history of Barcelona, transforming the city’s Gothic and neighboring “El Born” Quarter into a dark and atmospheric maze. Expect eerie architecture, ancient secrets, and challenges that test both your skills and wits.
Explore Barcelona’s Cathedral, Basílica del Mar and try not to fall off the Kiss Mural

Each biome is being crafted to feel alive, with intricate details and gameplay opportunities that reflect Neo Barcelona’s essence. We’re incredibly excited to show you even more as development progresses!


With such a strong foundation laid in 2024, we’re diving into 2025 with renewed energy and focus. Here’s what you can look forward to:

• 🕹️ More development updates and sneak peeks into gameplay.
  
• 🌟 New surprises, including additional features we’re keeping under wraps for now.
  
• 📅 Progress updates as we march closer to completing Altered Alma.

The journey is far from over, and we’re so grateful to have you with us every step of the way.

From all of us at 2Awesome Studio, thank you for being part of Altered Alma’s journey. We wish you a joyful holiday season, and an incredible New Year filled with adventure, joy, and lots of gaming!

Here’s to an exciting 2025! 🥂

Hey there, awesome gang,

We have incredible news, and we are getting close to the €260k thanks to our late pledgers. It feels like it was yesterday when we brought Altered Alma to the public for the first time.

First off, we want to give a HUGE thank you to everyone who has backed Altered Alma during our Kickstarter campaign. Your support has been truly incredible, and we can’t wait to deliver this epic cyberpunk journey to you.

Great news! We’ve extended the Kickstarter late pledges for one more week! So if you haven’t secured your exclusive rewards, you’ll have til October 23rd to get those exclusive rewards!!

Continuing with the good news — late pledges on Backerkit will be opening this after the Kickstarter Pledges close, giving one last opportunity to be part of Altered Alma journey and earning some nice goodies on the way.

However, please note that the limited tiers of the Kickstarter exclusives won't be available once we switch to Backerkit Late Pledges!

We’re excited to announce that the Pledge Manager is coming early November! (It was supposed to be late October, but we moved it to accommodate the late pledges extension). This is a key step for all our amazing backers on Kickstarter. Through the pledge manager, you’ll be able to:

• Select your platform for the game
  
• Set up your shipping details for any physical rewards
  
• Provide your discord nick if you’ve backed a tier with exclusive roles or community rewards

For all Kickstarter backers: Be sure to keep an eye on your inbox—once the pledge manager is available, we’ll guide you through the process step by step! This will ensure you get the rewards you want, and that everything is ready for launch day.

We’re thrilled to share the first iteration of the Parc Güell biome! This iconic area, inspired by the real-life localizations in Barcelona, is being brought to life with our cyberpunk twist. You’ll be able to explore recognizable landmarks within the game, including the stunning Arc de Triomf (we know… we are taking some liberties with the geographical locations compared to real life Barcelona), which we are leaving a small sneak peek for you to see, and many more places for you to find.

We can’t wait to show you more about the progress of this biome in the near future—stay tuned for updates as we bring these iconic locations to the world of Altered Alma!

Also, don’t forget to join our growing community on Discord![discord.gg] It’s the best place to chat with fellow players, share feedback, and catch exclusive and early updates straight from the devs.
