Thank You, Playtesters!

We had an incredible response to playtesting Begraved. We tried to let people in gradually so we could really nail down initial feedback. That said, we know there were thousands more who requested access and haven’t yet played. The demo will give you a much more refined and polished version of Begraved to enjoy.

No promises here, but we’re currently exploring ways to give more of those who requested access an exclusive preview ahead of the demo going live. The playtest button is still up so request access if you haven’t already and stay tuned for next week’s dev blog!

Begraved We here at Grip Jaw really appreciate any interest you’ve shown in Begraved. We truly believe in our game being a fun and engaging experience and want players to enjoy it as much as possible. Participating in the demo, Wishlisting, and following really helps us achieve success so thank you all once again.

Laters, Groobers! Jade – CM
