Groundedโs Tweets
For the last 2 years, over 10 million players have had some questions: Why are we so tiny? How did we wind up in this backyard? Who did this to us? Could they possibly add another spider to the game? The time to uncover those answers is now!
Grounded has reached 1 MILLION players in the first 48 hours! Thank you everyone! YOU are the reason we are having as much as we are, and without you we wouldn't be here!
To show his thanks, Grounded's Game Director, Adam Brennecke, has a special message:
Ok, quick check-in: like this tweet if you're playing Grounded! ๐
"Graphics are the first thing finished in a video game."
Here's a very early prototype of the backyard in Grounded, a happy friend, and a lot of screams in the studio.
Thank you.
You are the reason we are having so much fun developing this game, and without you, we wouldn't be able to keep doing what we are doing. To thank you, we have a very special gift. ๐ฆ
Groundedโฏis preparing to leave Game Preview this September with its full release. Find out how the teens got into the yard and the mad scientist behind it in the fully playable campaign โ all of which can be experienced alone or with a group of friends!

it seems that most of you want all three flying insects from yesterday's poll added, so how about we add them and more items AND open up the Public Test Servers again early next week so you can help us test before the official release? sound good?
