Repeated intro
Hey! Good news and bad news, everyone. Bad news is that Elo Hell is not selling as well as expected. We are having a visibility issue. The people we can get to play the game are enjoying it, but we aren't getting enough people downloading the game to even begin understanding where we sit in this space. Personally, I think we're just too niche. I truly believe our game is awesome and one-of-a-kind, but it's very different and we need time to find our audience. Because of this slowness, we have to slow down Elo Hell's release schedule and wait for people to discover it. Episodes 6-10 are on an indefinite hiatus until we can hit sales goals. Good news is Elo Hell is not dead and we will be releasing episodes 1-5 this month. Episode 1 will remain free and episodes 2-5 will cost $15. Episodes 6-10 will not come out until we can afford to come back to it, but every sale made is going into a piggy bank to be used for if/when that time comes. All existing season pass owners will have the option to refund the game no matter how far you are. So please know that coming into this, you can access what we have for $15 and that is contributing to the future of Elo Hell. Episodes 3-5 will have some minor rough edges compared to 1 and 2, but they will still be very strong. If we hit our goals, those episodes will get their final polish pass. In the meantime, we'll be working on other, smaller projects. We may or may not return to Guncraft. We'll see ;). We are 100% commited to Elo Hell. It's our baby, the product of 4.5 years of work, and a huge passion project, but at the same time, we need to see some interest in the game or else we are just burning money. This is a business at the end of the day and we have lots of bills to pay. So if you want to see Elo Hell come back, please use the hashtag #SaveEloHell to spread the word. It'll be a slow return, but I'm optimistic that given enough time, we'll find our home. GLHF, John "Darknuke" Getty Executive Producer Exato Games
