addedSave the date! February 6, 2020 is the new day of Blackout!Releasing an indie game on Steam is quite a challenge, nowadays. The competition is huge, the store algorithms seem to favor established AAA games, and the discovery queue feature is as dependable when it comes to presenting your game to the audience, as a politician in election campaign speech. You have to take a lot of things into account when releasing - things like other games that release on that day, time of the month, last year's crops and - apparently the date of the Chinese New Year. And when you learn that a huge sale is starting on the day of your planned release and will bury your game under a giant pile of -90%s - you have no other option, but to move your release date. That's what we did.
addedSave the date! February 6, 2020 is the new day of Blackout!We are terribly sorry to inconvenience you in such a way, but there is very little we could do about it. February 6 is our new release date , and we just hope the last-minute schedule change won't derail our launch. If you wish us well, and would like to support our case - please consider [FOLLOWING] our game on Steam (and wishlisting it as well), or maybe even telling your friends about it. The situation is sub-optimal, but we have to play with the cards we've been dealt, and we would hugely appreciate your support!
addedSo - in four weeks, on February 6, you'll learn what are YOU willing to sacrifice to... Survive the Blackout!Best wishes for the New Year, and the whole new decade!
