toGather

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

The mood sits somewhere between melancholy and optimistic - a game with heartfelt stories and a hopeful undertone, inspired by games like The First Tree, Journey, Don't Starve, and Gone Home.

The player travels 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 - people who might be tired of negative news cycles, grimdark games and cynical stories. A game with a more hopeful view of humanity.
