Spilled! is Out Now on Steam - The Boat Game Developed On a Boat
27 MARCH 2025 - Lente, the developer of Spilled!, lives on a boat herself and made the game while floating on the Dutch waters. She is nervous but happy to finally release her cozy boat game and can't wait to hear what players everywhere have to say.
Spilled! is out now on Steam for just $5.99* (regional prices may vary) and launched with a week-long 10% discount.
*$0.10 per sale will be donated to WDC, the Whale and Dolphin Conservation charity.
Spilled! is a short, relaxing and satisfying cozy game in which you clean up oil spills with a boat. Recycle, earn coins, upgrade your boat, repeat! Explore and clean up new areas with more waste and new challenges!
Lente began developing Spilled! at the end of 2022, after leaving school to pursue her dream of living on a small boat, and continuing the maritime lifestyle she grew up with. Although progress was slow initially, the game began to gain traction. In early 2024, Lente's Kickstarter campaign was a huge success, raising 31,600 euros—316% of her original 10,000 euro goal.
The tiny cozy indiegame is now ready to achieve some big goals and already amassed over 80.000 wishlists, thanks to a positively received demo!
