Curve Games announced this week that they have formed a new partnership with indie game developer Patattie Games to become the publisher for their game Wax Heads. In case you forgot about this one, the game was revealed back in May 2024 as a cozy narrative sim revolving around a record shop called Repeater Records. Through a combination of puzzles, storytelling, and minigames, you'll work with customers to find the right kind of album for their eccentric tastes. Kind of like Coffee Talk, but for music lovers. The game doesn't have a set release window yet, only the idea that we'll probably see it come out next year. For now, enjoy the announcement trailer above.
