Repeated intro
Greetings everyone,
Extracted changes
- Gameplay
- Balance

If you follow us on Discord, you’re probably already aware of this, but we are changing Project F4E’s gameplay.
We’re organizing a Playtest next week. Make sure to check this news until the end to see the details and how to participate.
Our initial objective was to create a game that allowed players to form meaningful friendships through special friend features in an MMO MOBA-like game. But, while we added new content, we weren't satisfied with the results. We knew we had to do better and create something extraordinary.
That's when we stumbled upon the "Loot & Extract" genre, which has become our new obsession. We were thrilled to discover that it offers a thrilling, high-stakes experience that can lead to unforgettable memories and deepened friendships!
In Project F4E, you can team up with your friends or strangers and use magical Portals to explore dangerous fantasy environments and gather epic loot to become stronger. However, you're not alone. There are other teams that all have their own goals!
You can choose to avoid them and focus on getting loot from monsters or hunt them to get their gear. But beware … If you die, you will lose all the gear you haven’t placed in your stash! The unpredictability of each session offers great replayability and makes it easy for friends to have continuous play sessions together. You can also team up with strangers in the game and ignite brand-new friendships.
Through Project F4E, we aim to create new friendships by engaging in tense and hardcore sessions with high stakes where you must work together to survive and extract.
We know this might be sad news for some of you, but we're confident that this new direction will surpass your expectations. It provides a great balance between progression and avoiding massive power gaps between sessions. We already did several Playtests with players, and we’re very happy with the results and our progress. We can't wait for you to join us on this new journey.
Playtest the new version next week!
Date: March 31st, 4:00 PM CET to 9:00 PM (the test will last 5 hours) How to participate? 1. Fill out this form: https://forms.gle/idKoJkpwqDBiNrZP6 2.
