- Винегрет из Horizon Forbidden West, NieR: Automata и Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order: Обзор Steel Seed - 22 April 2025
С первого знакомства Steel Seed ощущается как симбиоз популярных игр. Авторы явно вдохновлялись Horizon Zero Dawn , NieR: Automata и Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order . Чем дольше играешь, тем яснее понимаешь: разработчики стремились объединить любимые идеи и концепции в одном проекте. Однако в эпоху расцвета инди-сцены такие эклектичные эксперименты, не предлагающие свежих идей, нередко оказываются не слишком увлекательными.
- Steel Seed is Out Now! - 22 April 2025

- Steel Seed (PC) Review - 22 April 2025
From its title, Steel Seed , to its premise, aesthetics and gameplay loop, Storm in a Teacup’s latest action-adventure effort could be the most video game-like game of 2025. In other words, Steel Seed feels like a game from another time—namely, the seventh generation of home consoles, which might sound like a slight against the game. Still, sometimes all you really need in life is a good romp through a neon-soaked robot hellscape, playing as one of the last surviving remnants of humanity. For those who may not have heard of the game, Steel Seed follows the exploits of Zoe and her robot companion, Koby, as they delve (or often slide) deep into the depths of a vast post-apocalyptic world ruled by rogue robots. Steel Seed features a mix of action-oriented combat, stealth sequences peppered between high-octane parkour and cinematic set pieces reminiscent of games like Uncharted and Assassin…
- Steel Seed | Dev Diary #4 “ZOE” - 10 April 2025
Hello! In previous diaries, we have shared a lot of information about the game's world, about Koby, a flying drone, Zoe's “emotional” companion and even about Michael Bay, so today we finally get to talk about the main protagonist — Zoe. Zoe is the protagonist of Steel Seed. She is a young woman who awakens in a robotic body, stranded in an unfamiliar and dangerous environment. Her journey is one of survival, self-discovery, and a relentless search for her father, all while navigating the psychological toll of loneliness and fear. Backstory Zoe’s life before the events of Steel Seed remains a mystery to her and the player. At the start of the game, she finds herself trapped in an advanced underground facility, a world dominated by artificial intelligence and robotic entities. With no memory of how or why she was placed in this situation, Zoe struggles to make sense of her transformation…

Our goal is to ensure that all players, regardless of platform, enjoy a polished and seamless experience. We are committed to delivering…

- Steel Seed | Dev Diary #2 “KOBY” - 6 February 2025
Hello everyone! We shared new info about the game's world in the previous diary, so today, we would like to tell you about Koby, a flying drone, Zoe's “emotional” companion. Designed by the late scientist Archer, Koby was conceived as a prototype companion drone for the game's protagonist, Zoe. Despite never being physically constructed during Archer's lifetime, Koby's digital blueprint was activated and brought to life as a vital ally in Zoe's journey. Development and Role Koby was created to assist and support Zoe, as outlined by its core programming. However, throughout the adventure, Koby transcends its initial purpose, evolving from a mere helper into a loyal and heartfelt companion. This transformation is integral to the narrative of Steel Seed, emphasizing themes of connection, trust, and the nature of artificial intelligence as it interacts with human emotion. Personality and Co…
- Steel Seed | Dev Diary #1 “The Facility” - 24 January 2025
Hello everyone! We’ve been quiet about Steel Seed for a while now, but we are happy to say that the game's development is progressing at a steady pace. You will start seeing much more of Steel Seed in the near future, and it is high time we share a bit more in-depth look at the world of Steel Seed — so we are pleased to present you with a series of dev diaries. Today, we will share more info about the locations in the world of Steel Seed. The Facility is a gigantic structure created by machines after the AIs decided to take the lead in saving humanity after a traumatic cataclysm made the environment inhabitable. Since it was realized by machines to be used by machines, the facility is not a place where humans can feel confident moving around. However, Zoe, the main protagonist, will have to learn how to deal with it quickly if she wishes to survive and find answers through her journey.…
