Infinity was a Game Boy Color game in development from 1999 to 2001 by Affinix Software before it got cancelled because the Game Boy Advance had hit the scene. […]

Update July 2, 2021: The developers behind Infinity have sent an email update announcing the Kickstarter date has been pushed back to August 18th. Read the email below.
The Kickstarter date has been moved!
– Now on August 18th –
As we continue to prepare for the launch of the Infinity Kickstarter, we decided it would be best to push the date to August 18th.
We thought that despite our dedication to Infinity, some final elements needed to be fine-tuned. It’s mandatory for us to make the best environment for the Kickstarter campaign, and to make this game a reality.
For example, we are waiting on some price updates; Covid-19 has made raw material and chip prices increase a lot since our first estimates.
In light of this, we need to be even more careful to ensure the best future for Infinity. After all, some of you have waited 20 years for it! We will not miss this amazing opportunity to bring you this gem.
Now, some game updates! We thought that you would be pleased to see some character artwork we have worked on! 20 years back, only sprites were done for Infinity; no official drawings were made for the game. Benoît, our character designer, worked from each sprite to make these amazing renders. Below you will be able to see 4 of the 11 characters of the Infinity cast!
Thank you for your understanding, and we’re sorry for the extra wait!
