changedThe following content is unrelated to updates: As of May 15, 2024, the game has been purchased by 2 players. Thank you very much for your support. Due to the time and financial investment required for game development, but the income from game sales is not enough to support me to continue developing the game, I need to go out and find a job to maintain my family's life and repay the loans. Making games is not an easy task, and I think marketing and distribution are more important. Research and development only account for about 10%, excluding good gameplay and innovation. Compared with other competitive games, "Souls of Shadow" has no advantage in innovative gameplay, which is a serious mistake I made. However, the situation has come to this point. Welcome everyone to leave comments for discussion.
