We are no longer in active development

We are no longer in active development. Our team basically dissolved after we did not get enough funding (We were self-funded with our own private money).

removedWe are no longer in active development. Our team basically dissolved after we did not get enough funding (We were self-funded with our own private money). We are working on other projects with different people in our free time (But the primary expertise for this game's game development is no longer with us so we need to discontinue it. Real life, harsh Covid19 conditions, and the loss of family members, and with self-funding we can no longer work on this game. It was our passion and dream project but it failed... We tried to deactivate the store page but this is not that easy so we put a warning on the page for now).
changedI post this to clarify our current state and to keep reminding you to purchase at your own risk (Since the game is not finished and will properly never receive any update).
addedIf our private projects gain some money we may get back to this game again - and let it resurrect like a phoenix - but even from a marketing standpoint, we would be better off making a new game as a successor to this one. It is sad for all of us but there is no point in hoping to develop this in our free time (we need to make smaller games on our own).
