Background

Originally conceived during while a student, Fail Fail Succeed grew from feelings of being stuck in a cycle of manic highs and hard crashes. The mechanics were designed as metaphors for those struggles: failure as an inevitable outcome, but traces of progress being left behind. In a bleak world of exhausting repetition, small comforts in the companionship of a loyal pup often became a guiding light.

Fail Fail Succeed is developed by a single developer. What began as a small weekend project, slowly grew after positive feedback, was further developed for GGC and SGA, and is now finally coming to Steam for everyone to play!
