About DeepLands and the Developer

DeepLands is a game made by me, Tim Venekamp. A seventeen-year-old Dutch guy that has always had a lot of imagination and a desire to make and design his own world. I launched the game when I was sixteen years old, in the summer of 2018. When I started developing I didn't know anything about the industry, I just made the world I wanted to make. As I grew older I learned more about programming and the industry in general, to the point where I am right now. The thing about DeepLands that I think is so unique is that I made it the way I wanted my fantasy world to be, and not like the big industry giants who look at what would sell the best and what most gamers want. I took a lot of inspiration from Dutch artists and European culture that I grew up with.

I would describe Deeplands as a quiet, or calm game, But it does have its action moments and it will probably get more action in future updates and future levels. In this game, you will have to solve various puzzles, explore this new world, avoid as much contact with the evil creatures as possible, and eventually fight yourself a way to the "Blue Sun" where you will find your wife if you are in time.
