Kimmy
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Kimmy is a visual novel style game about a summer spent babysitting in late 1960s Massachusetts. You play as Dana, who stumbles across Kimmy--a tiny girl wandering around alone in her neighborhood. Dana decides to take Kimmy under her wing, worried that she's having trouble making friends, and decides to be her babysitter. Let summer begin! Collect trinkets, play street games, and learn more and more about Kimmy and her mysterious family as summer passes by.

I was kida surprized when I found Kimmy on Steam since I thought it was just a downloadable excusive, but was real happy to see that I also got a Steam key with the January bundle so thanks. :D
Are there plans to take the game over to other platforms like GameJolt or GoG as well?
