We're Voxsomnium and this is our first complete project!

We took part in a couple game jams last year and realized that to found our own indie studio and be able to make a living out of our passion - music, art, and games! - would a dream come true.

This game is a proof of concept for us. We wanted to challenge ourselves to create a simple game between two people, handling all of the code development, art creation, and music production ourselves.

Everything that you see and interact with is made by ourselves and, frankly, we're overjoyed that we managed to take a project from nothing to something in a short time, finally overcoming the "it's almost finished but not quite" hurdle that we crashed into in two different jams.

We're going to be working on more simple projects like this to build up skills and confidence before we start working on a project to actually sell... And we'll be putting them up here on Itch for y'all to hopefully enjoy and have some fun with.

Always appreciate feedback (good and bad of course, as long as it's constructive!) and we hope you have fun with Netsurfers. Or, at the very least, get brainwormed by the catchy jingle. ;3

Thanks for playing! Hopefully you'll see more from us soon!

There's a web version you can play. Hit f10 to fullscreen it, if it wants to work...

The download for windows runs cleaner though! :)
