Potions: A Curious Tale is debuting on March 7 on Steam after nearly 10 years of development work by indie game developer Renee Gittins and her team at Stumbling Cat.

It’s a passion project if there ever was one, as Gittins had plenty of other work during that time. She is the former executive director of the International Game Developers Association and former general manager of Phoenix Labs, maker of Fae Farm.
