HANK: A Snippet of Time and Alcohol

One of the best experiences I had at PAX was learning more about HANK: Drowning on Dry Land. While I was disappointed to discover the game would only be a short snippet of a larger idea when it came out, it did not ruin my excitement. The time travel mechanic, avoidance of paradox, multiple deaths, and multiple solutions for a small game, along with amazing art and a killer song kept my interests high.

On Jan 13th 2026 at noon EST you can all experience the final version for only $2.99 on Steam. There will also be an art book available.

While I can’t show you the new trailer just yet, here’s the music video released awhile ago to whet your appetite. As well as a thumbnail with a few additional thoughts underneath.

HANK will surprise you with how it can trick you into thinking you have it all solved. In good ways, and actually never bad ways. The reversing and speeding time mechanic works amazingly well. Just pay attention, you don’t want to accidently bump into yourself… or do you? Dying is just part of the adventure. I’ll bring you more as HANK comes closer to release date, but mark your calendar and wishlist today.
