Pushing the Release to May 26

I've decided to move the release date of Statecraft from April 14 to May 26. To be completely honest, the game just needs a little more time in the oven.

changedVoting UI's is confusing: The current voting mechanism wasn't clear. I’m going to rework the UI and feedback loops so it makes perfect sense the moment you look at it.

I've decided to move the release date of Statecraft from April 14 to May 26.

To be completely honest, the game just needs a little more time in the oven. The economy isn't perfectly balanced yet, and I want to make sure the final polish is exactly where it needs to be before you play it.

Also, watching you all during the recent playtest (March 21-28) was incredibly eye-opening. Based on how you played, I realized two major things need fixing:

  • Voting UI's is confusing: The current voting mechanism wasn't clear. I’m going to rework the UI and feedback loops so it makes perfect sense the moment you look at it.

  • We need more actionsYou need more ways to scheme and strategize.. I'll be adding a bunch of new political actions to give you more freedom and depth.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined the playtest and helped me find these blind spots. This extra month will make a massive difference in the game's quality.

I look forward to your further feedback.
