5 Year Anniversary

24 Sep 2026

Hello!

Today is the 5 year anniversary of Mike Klubnika.

On September 24, 2021 I released System Upkeep, a sci-fi computer game that I worked on for 2 months throughout the end of summer. After that I got super obsessed with making games, and suddenly 5 years have passed!

I would like to take this moment to sincerely thank all the players, content creators, and mutuals for the support over these years. I try my best to make the games the best they can be, and so it means a lot hearing all the kind words about the games, seeing the fan art, and reading messages from people who have shared stories about the games.

There will be some cool stuff coming out very soon to celebrate the 5 year anniversary. Mainly a custom standalone chat client built from scratch dedicated to the community, with the gritty design language of previous games, that will hopefully make it feel almost as if you're in a remote cabin right near The Machine.

I hope to see you there, and thank you again for the continued support :).

- Mike
