Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.11/day in the week to Aug 4 → 0/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Immerse yourself in Backspace Backspace Backspace, a narrative-driven game that explores the inner turmoil of a struggling writer in an age where AI has made the written word wholly automated.
Game Features:
Narrative-focused visual novella putting the player in the shoes of a tortured creative soul.
Homemade pixel art direction reminiscent of the GBA era.
Full soundtrack of chiptune-style music.
Meaningful choices.
Dialogue available in nine languages (so far!): English, Arabic, Turkish, French, Chinese (traditional & simplified), Korean, Russian, Vietnamese, and Japanese! Get in touch if you can help localize the game in other languages.
Two endings. Try to get both!
We made this game in one week. Debugging and further touch-ups took two months. We never created pixel art or original music before, but we used this project as an opportunity to push ourselves outside our comfort zone and grow more independent as a team of two. Above all else, Backspace Backspace Backspace is our love letter to every creative soul out there. Keep making!
Because we appreciate transparency, and to help you save your money, here's what this game is not:
A "long" game. We made this game with compactness in mind. Expect no more than 20 minutes of gameplay.
A flawless game. Backspace Backspace Backspace is a small project made in a limited time frame, with limited experience, and virtually no resources, with the intent of learning how to make a game from scratch. Naturally, it will have technical issues. We are still working on them, but we don't want this game to hold us back from focusing on our next project. If you encounter a bug, please let us know.
We have many more games lined up in the near future. If you already purchased Backspace Backspace Backspace and would like to support us further, we would be immensely grateful to you. Leave us a review, tell your friends about this game, or purchase the Backspace Backspace Backspace soundtrack (which is also available on YouTube for free).

eu gostei bastante só jogo ( ter em português brasileiro me fez gostar ainda mais), ele me surpreendeu, gostei da escrita e dos conflitos internos,pq como alguém que cria (desenho a minha vida inteira) tudo o que acaba falando no jogo me faz lembrar de quando passei pelo mesmo e ainda passo, é um jogo que eu sinto que sempre deixa aquela lembrança ali em vc, sempre voltando a pensar um pouco nele e recomendo muito ler a nota do autor, coisa mais fofa desse mundo :3
nice and simple

Even writing this review got me pressing backspace a few times ngl. Very relatable and relevant to the emergence of AI, sometimes its best not overthink and let the word-count fly! Its a short and enjoyable experience, definitely recommend.
Short game about getting down and talking trash to yourself, and maybe just maybe stuffing that part of you in the bin. I don't know the developer but: I'm proud of you, bud.
The writing was beautiful, in ways I can't even express. I loved it so so much. And the music was very nice! I feel like it peered into my brain haha. Definitely worth the dollar :)
Shines an artistic lens on a contemporary topic that hits close to home for many. The pixel art style and music are standout highlights really hit the right vibes!
I think all creatives definitely deal with these dark feelings. Sometimes it's comforting to know that we aren't alone but it can be easy to remain in the darkness. Keep on creating!
I must give this game a great deal of applause. At first, I assumed it would be nothing more than a dull, reading-heavy experience. Yet, it turned out to be something truly extraordinary. It made me reflect repeatedly, as everything within the game felt deeply relatable — almost as if it mirrored parts of myself. What struck me even more was how closely the themes aligned with the challenges I am currently facing, turning each line of dialogue into something worth contemplating. Who would have thought that such a simple game could capture my attention so profoundly? A remarkable experience. 10/10.
