Update on the Current State and Ongoing Work

We want to be very clear and transparent about where things stand.

The launch did not land well, and the current reviews reflect real problems in the game. A large portion of the feedback is negative, and that is not something we are dismissing or trying to downplay. Players are pointing out issues that matter, and we take responsibility for that.

Since launch, our focus has been on fixing what players reported and improving the game across stability, progression, UI, interaction clarity, and overall usability. We have already shipped several updates and will continue iterating until the experience matches what we originally set out to deliver.

Right now is the most important time for feedback and bug reports. Detailed reports help us identify issues faster, understand their impact, and prioritize fixes correctly. If something feels wrong, confusing, or broken, this is the moment to tell us. Your input directly affects how quickly and effectively the game improves.

If you want to share feedback or report issues directly, we are active on Discord and continue to read everything posted on Steam. We will keep communicating as further updates go live.
