The delay for the Early Access release of My Time at Sandrock has been tough for everyone at Pathea. Most affected has been the marketing and executive branches. The dev team is working day in and day out to polish the game, we hear there might be some important news about it next week. Meanwhile, we’ve resorted to chucking waffles at the ceiling to see whose sticks the longest in order to pass the time.

It was during one of these waffle sticking competitions that we came up with an idea. An idea so brilliant, it would solve all our problems in one fell swoop! We looked around the office and realized... we have producers, directors, writers, effects, one guy with a nice camera... basically all the makings for a movie studio!



The only thing we were missing was actors, an issue we quickly solved by making all of our brand and IP managers (whose jobs are now idle) into our actors! They all took to the job change like fish out of water: we quickly discovered that our VP of Marketing, Aaron, could cry on command! Yes, as soon as we made this announcement to the team, he immediately burst into tears. It was quite the performance!

With that settled, we reached out to our Board of Directors for funding, they laughed and promised us one trillion Gols if we can produce a teaser that can get a retweet by Elon Musk. So, we did (produce a teaser, the Musk tweet is still up in the air).

Below is the teaser for our first film, Pathea: Survive. A super serious film about serious stuff that we’re definitely doing, seriously.
