changedQ: Will the game have language support for other languages?
changedA: Yes, the full game will have localization for other languages.
changedA: Most likely yes. There is an issue that hackers could join and ruin the games of unsuspecting people, so I am still a bit unsure as to how I will implement it. The game is meant to mainly be played with friends which is why I have not put any effort into anti cheat or security against cheaters. That means I might have to rework some of the aspects of the game to make sure cheaters cannot join and ruin your save files etc.
addedQ: Will there be feature X or content Y added in the full version? A: That's a big secret.
addedThats it for the questions. I will also add that the development of the game is going well. I am working on new features and content as well as improving existing features and mechanics from the demo every single day while I try to get the full version to you all as soon as possible!

Lastly, Jonathan wanted to say hello.

He wanted to become a Burglin' Gnome, but due to his muscular build wasn't able to fit into the clothes properly. Since then he has been focusing on building up his physique and listening to music.

The hat was sewn by his mother and he never takes it off. Maybe it makes him feel more included?
