The next few days are going to be intense.

Versions 0.88, 0.89 and 0.90 will be released within a short time frame, and they are not just simple patches. They are the final stretch before something much bigger.

We are preparing the ground for 1.0.

What do these versions include?

The upcoming updates will introduce:

  • New bosses

  • 3 new Lords

  • A new gameplay mechanic

  • Deep UI/UX improvements

  • New game modes

  • Save slots

  • New playable content

  • An annual in-game event system

This last point is especially important. We want the world to evolve with the calendar, to feature special moments, unique challenges, and content that appears on specific dates. The game will not only grow… it will breathe.

Changes to the release structure

Until now, development has followed an incremental progression:

0.5 → 0.51 → 0.6 → 0.7…

But we are reaching the end of the road toward the full version.

After 0.90, the next step will be directly to 1.0.

This means:

  • Official exit from Early Access

  • All main content available to unlock

  • A complete and solid full experience

From that point forward, we will change the version structure.

Instead of continuing with 1.01, 1.02… we will move to a more structured model:

  • 1.10.0

  • 1.20.0

  • 1.30.0

Each major number will represent significant content blocks. More clarity, more planning, more ambition.

We are leaving behind the constant experimental phase and stepping into a more organized expansion stage.

Thank you

Many of the decisions going into 1.0 were born here.

From your comments.

From your discussions.

From your ideas that, once shaped, became real systems.

This game would not be what it is without you.

And now…

I’m not going to reveal all the details yet.

But I can say this:

1.0 will not just add content.

It will introduce an element that changes the way you approach every run.

In addition, the Demo version will be updated to include these new changes. We want it to reflect this evolution and serve as a true gateway to everything that is coming.

More information will be shared soon.

For now… get ready.

The end of Early Access is not the end of the journey.

It is the beginning of something bigger.
