Press release:
Montreal, Canada –July 2, 2021.
Incube8 Games (a retro publisher), Spacebot Interactive (a games producer), Carmelo Electronics (an indie development studio), and Retro Modding (a retro game company that’s based in Canada), today announced with great excitement and thrill that their murder mystery adventure game “Pine Creek” is opening-up its pre-orders to PC and the Game Boy Color (the GBC version will come in the shape of an actual physical cartridge).

Pine Creek is an adventure game focused on exploration, story, and following clues. Have friends, think about life, think about death, eat tasty food, and play games in the arcade!
