A Message From The Lead Developer

"Hello everyone! My name is Kaleb Wassa. While speaking on the behalf of our team, we are all very thankful for the support we've gotten from players and contributors that have helped us shape this project over the past year. It had always been a dream of mine to publish a game here on the Steam platform and that vision was achieved last summer. Since then, I've learned a great deal about what it means to be an indie game developer and how to improve my communication and planning abilities. Without the members of our team, our players, and my close friends this game would not be where it is today. I wanted to personally thank everyone because this has been a life changing experience and I am thrilled for what the future entails for this series and for myself. Maguntsche: Chapter One Remastered will be a free-to-play title here on Steam as a token of my appreciation for all of the gamers and friends and contributors that helped shape this project into what it is today. If necessary, I will be releasing smaller patches for bugs and other issues that may arise in the future. If that is not the case, This is goodbye...for now!"

Best Regards,

Kaleb Wassa Lead Producer
