Hello everyone!

We are incredibly excited to announce that our first game, Nuclear Meltdown, is finally ready to be revealed to the world! This is the first post in our devlog series, where we’ll take you behind the scenes of development, share the challenges we’ve faced, and discuss the inspiration and passion that drove us to create this experience.

What is Nuclear Meltdown?

Nuclear Meltdown is a tense, fast-paced cooperative game where a group of ordinary people is thrust into an extraordinary crisis: a nuclear power plant emergency. Trapped inside the control center, players must respond to an escalating catastrophe—without any technical expertise.

You play as a visiting delegation touring the facility when, without warning, disaster strikes. A sudden explosion knocks out all communication lines and incapacitates the technical staff. As the security doors seal shut, you're left alone in front of a maze of blinking lights, switches, and warning sirens—none of which you understand.

Your only link to the outside world is an outdated data terminal capable of receiving brief text instructions and sending simple YES or NO replies. Guided by minimal communication and your own instincts, you must work together under pressure, interpret cryptic console interfaces, and try to prevent a full-scale nuclear meltdown.

Challenges We Faced

Like any indie project, we faced plenty of challenges along the way. The biggest hurdle was time management. Every team member had to balance their work on the game with other responsibilities, like full-time jobs or studies. But, thanks to our determination and the incredible support from our community, we were able to overcome every obstacle.

Another major challenge was developing the game's immersive atmosphere. We wanted Nuclear Meltdown to feel intense, real, and full of urgency, which meant creating an environment where players genuinely feel the pressure and fear of the situation. This included designing the game's interface to be deliberately confusing and overwhelming, reflecting the fact that players aren't experts—they’re just regular people trying to survive.

What to Expect in the First Release

The version we’re releasing now is just the beginning. In this first release, you’ll get to experience the initial stages of the meltdown as you and your friends work together to decipher cryptic messages and control the nuclear plant’s failing systems. We’ve poured a lot of love and effort into every detail, but we know there’s still a lot to improve. This first release is really just an early preview, and we’re looking forward to hearing your feedback so we can make the game even better.

We’re only getting started, and there’s a lot more to come. Stay tuned!
