Emily is Away <3 is the third game in developer Kyle Seeley’s indie throwback series, and Seeley has just announced a delay in the game’s release.
Originally planned for a August 2020 release, Seeley took to Twitter to confirm that Emily is Away <3, while still being worked on, would not hit that goal. However, the developer did also take the time to announce that his next update would include a new game trailer.
In his Twitter developer update, Seeley wrote that he had been looking forward to the game’s release and hoped it could be in August, but that “2020 had other plans.” While Seeley didn’t specify a reason for the delay, plenty of other projects – both indie games and triple-A – have experienced delays due to the environment created by COVID-19 around the world, so it’s definitely not out of the ordinary. Overall, the Twitter response to Seeley’s announcement reflects that: fans of the series are just happy the game is still in progress, and are willing to wait if it means a better game.
Emily is Away <3 and its predecessors are a sort of old social media simulator, bringing back the nostalgia of social media’s early years. The first game is modeled around something like AOL’s Instant Messenger, while the second game involves a Facebook-like platform; each features branching stories for players to follow, and presumably Emily is Away <3 will do the same.
The indie game doesn’t have a solid release date nailed down yet, but it’s possible that’ll be revealed with the trailer that Seeley also promised. In the meantime, fans of the series will have to sit tight and wait to see what Emily is Away <3 has in store.
Emily is Away <3 is in development now for PC and Mac.
