Dear Reader:
PR - Almost 1000 donations made by the players via the DLC #LydiaDonation!
Based on its developers’ real childhood memories, Lydia is an award-winning narrative game about a little girl living with drunk and broken parents. On Nintendo Switch it comes with a $1 DLC to collect funds for a charity - which was purchased almost 1000 times! On February 21, Nakana.io releases a Bundle containing both the game and the DLC, to keep raising visibility and funds.
WARSAW - Mikaël Bourget, founder of Nakana.io
Lydia addresses a serious issue: children having to deal with alcoholic parents. Released 5 weeks ago on Nintendo Switch, it was very well received by the community. The grim and oniric climate perfectly fits the emotional tale of this girl who wishes for a happy childhood but can never have it.
Players have the possibility to help those who suffer in their daily life by donating via a $1/€ DLC redistributed to Fragile Childhood (A-Clinic Foundation).
We are so grateful to communicate that almost 1000 donations were already made this way! This shows how powerful the game is as a medium to convey serious messages and motivate real changes, and it’s a fantastic display of generosity from the players community! A Bundle containing both the game Lydia and the DLC #LydiaDonation is now available on Nintendo eShop (release on February 21).
The content that players get from the DLC is a colouring book of monsters that Lydia can only paint with happy colours, as a metaphor to making monsters less scary both in-game and in real life. See more information about this on http://nakana.io/lydia-donation
