Description

Freelance hacker Quei-Li is given a new job: uncover information from a secret government network about a high-profile corruption case. While she typically avoids jobs as risky as this, her curiosity about the secret network and her belief that the result could bring on positive change to Shiba Island convinced her to accept.

The job leads to Quei-Li bluffing her way into the ARI government as an undercover programmer, and building up a rapport with her coworkers while seeking the information her client needs. The more she digs around, the more secrets Quei-Li discovers, leading her to question her own existence.

Quill Studios' first game, A Summer with the Shiba Inu, was first conceptualized in 2016, and was successful on Steam Greenlight in 2017. Quill Studios' founder, Susan, has been working on the studio for over 6 years now on the weekends, along with her full time job as a principal data scientist on weekdays.

Quill Studios has since released 2 commercial games, A Summer with the Shiba Inu, and Death Becomes You. They are working on the next game in the Shiba Inu series, Autumn with the Shiba Inu, and launching a Kickstarter for it in April, 2023.
