'A gentle story game about what keeps us apart and what brings us together'

toGather is a short, hopepunk game about loneliness, community and connection, created by Beck Hemsley as part of their BA in Games Art at Warwickshire College.

It’s very much a human story about human emotions and relationships. The mood sits somewhere between melancholy and optimistic - a game with touching stories and a hopeful undertone, inspired by games like The First Tree, Journey, Don't Starve, and Gone Home.

The player explores woods, snowy plains, and icy rivers - travelling through the darkness with a small lantern towards the gleams of huts in the distance. Minimalist, visually stylised, with atmospheric lighting, toGather takes inspiration from games like Morkredd and Limbo.

toGather is a game for those who are seeking a gentle emotive experience - young adults and millenials, who might be tired of negative news cycles, grimdark games and cynical stories. A game with a more hopeful view of humanity.
