changedAs promised it's been 3 months and play testing begins at the end of the week! This play test will feature the first 1/3rd of the game. All the meat and potatoes have been incorporated, but minor details still need some finesse. Things like pacing, environmental sounds, and animations for certain environmental interactions have either been created, or on the to do list, but still need to be implemented appropriately (in some areas). Touching up cutscenes will need to happen as well. That being said, the game is there and it’s doing what it's supposed to!

For the moment I will be collecting play data and responding accordingly to that feedback. After I get through this phase I will open things up to backers / followers on Steam who are interested; specifically using Steam keys for testing purposes. If playtesting is something you'd be interested in doing then drop me a line at info@iragame.com. Please keep in mind that I will need some things from you. You need a windows based computer, sign an NDA agreement, have a webcam, provide feedback, and must be willing to record your face + play session. I will include a how to doc with links for easy setup!

If you have any questions feel free to drop them below. Until next time folks!
