Hi all, I have a couple of announcements.

Next Fest Delayed

I originally planned to participate in the upcoming June Next Fest.

But I have now decided to delay my Next Fest participation to the October 2026 Next Fest.

Why?

Next Fest is one of the best opportunities to gain lots of players' first-impressions of my game, and I feel that I can't get the game ready and polished enough in time for June to make the best first-impression possible.

So by delaying to October's Next Fest, I will have adequate time to prepare by polishing, playtesting, fixing bugs, adding content, etc.

Release Date Delayed

I am therefore also postponing the game's release date to quarter-one of 2027.

What Does This Mean For Now?

Actually not much.

The game is still immediately playable for free by registering for the open-playtest on Steam.

I welcome you to playtest and try out the game for yourself, today!

Aside from all general feedback, I am especially looking for where can I further polish and refine the gameplay and game itself, as well as what further content should I add.
