Game Update
Alpha News
The early alpha for the game is out on Steam, as a playtest. I’ll be emailing keys soon to Kickstarter backers and supporters that preordered the game on this website.
However, if you want a game that you can play without worries, I strongly suggest that you wait.
Despite what I had intended and said earlier, I’d also ask content creators to wait a couple more weeks before streaming or showcasing the game. No NDAs as usual, just a polite request.
Games sadly take a long time to make.
I wanted to stick with the original deadline for this part of the project for an incredibly simple reason: accountability.
And so I am making the current build of the game available to all the people that support the project. I am 100% aware however that things are not only buggy but incomplete, and I’ve had to scramble to find ways to make a build that, well, at least doesn’t crash upon opening.
I’ve also not been 100% capable of managing everything besides coding that makes part of being a game dev. I don’t think this is particularly surprising, given my inexperience, but I still wanted to let you all know. This just means some slight delays, but there are no impossible to surmount obstacles right now. Just a ton of work.
Updates are coming, and with them, slowly but firmly, the game will be made.
