2Awesome Studio plans focused Altered Alma sequel
Co-founder Alexander Santiago says the Barcelona studio is planning the next two or three years and hopes an Altered Alma sequel is part of them.
2Awesome Studio intends to continue the Altered Alma franchise with a more focused sequel, co-founder Alexander Santiago said, as work on the first game nears completion. In an interview with gamesindustry.biz, Santiago said the Barcelona-based team is planning the next two or three years, a roadmap that he hopes will include an Altered Alma sequel.
Santiago pointed to the game's wishlist figures and its reception at Steam Next Fest as signs of momentum. Altered Alma also appeared in the Indie Arena at Gamescom, which he described as a curated space and a seal of quality.
The studio's plans for a follow-up follow a period of activity around the first game, including an appearance in the annual showcase hosted by indie publisher Critical Reflex last week.
From Kickstarter to a franchise
Altered Alma's Kickstarter campaign in 2024 raised more than €260,000 from over 5,100 backers against an initial €40,000 goal, and development began in 2023.
