• A Quick Word on the Future of Honey, I Joined a Cult - 19 December 2025

  Hi everyone,We’ve been reading through the forums and the recent comments, and it’s clear that many of you are wondering what’s going on with Honey, I Joined a Cult. Specifically, we’ve seen the word "abandoned" pop up quite a bit. We wanted to step in, clear the air, and give you an honest update on where things stand.The Journey Since 2017First off, we want to reassure you: we haven’t abandoned the game. HIJAC was our first "baby." We started this journey back in 2017, and at the time, we were learning everything from scratch—literally learning to code, figuring out everything about game development, and building a community all at once.It was a massive undertaking that took years of blood, sweat, and tears to move through Early Access and finally into a 1.0 release. We are incredibly proud of what the game became, and we haven't forgotten the support you gave us to get it there.The R…

• Incoming Patch (and further content tease) - 5 July 2024

  We're admittedly a bit rusty and slow at the moment. Some of the code we're back tinkering with was written by us half a decade ago, and some of the people that helped out with said code are no longer around, BUT we have got together a patch to fix some of the most pressing issues that you've raised. There's a brief summary below: Changes/bug fixes Fixed crash after promoting a follower. Fixed crash after sacking cultist. Fixed crash after growing plants in the Arboretum. Fixed crash that may occur after removing all traits of Cultist in Ministry of Alternation. Power to the People Achievement now tracks Influence gained whilst at the Influence cap.

• Still here! - 21 February 2024

  Hello there, It’s been a while. We want to apologise to you all for the lack of updates/communication on HIJAC. Rest assured, we have not abandoned it and are now working on the next update. So why the lack of updates? Firstly, HIJAC took a very long time for the two of us to make (ridiculously long, it’s actually pretty embarrassing). It was our first game and we had to learn everything from scratch, such as coding, how to make the artwork etc. When we finally released into 1.0, we were quite frankly, a bit frazzled and burnt out. We needed a bit of time to ourselves… But not THAT much time to ourselves! After a bit of downtime we started to work on our next game, which is what has taken up the majority of our time. We made a conscious decision to not try and juggle two games at once until we got to a certain milestone with our new project. We’re arrived there now (as usual, it took lo…
