Overview
FOAD is the flagship IP of game studio FUTURE TRASH. The project FOAD began in 2022 as an ambitious indie game built in Unreal Engine 5. The small team of four devs built a vertical slice MVP, which you can download and play on Steam by requesting early access. FOAD struggled to reach players, and with limited resources for marketing, FUTURE TRASH needed to rethink its plans for FOAD to find its' audience.
