addedIt's been a long time since I've made an announcement here, so let me just start by saying hello! I'm GlerG, or at least that's my username on most platforms. I started working on this game back in July of 2021, and it's been quite a ride since then. After the last update I ended up taking a break, and then started a side project. That side project was supposed to take 6 days, and so naturally it took 6 months. During that time I had a lot of realizations about where things were headed. I really love this game, but if I wanted to release something I'm truly happy with then I'd have to start over. Starting over was definitely scary, and sometimes I still wonder if it was the right choice, but I when I started this project 2 years ago I was nowhere near as experienced as I am now. The code base of the game became unsustainable, and it was hard to keep adding new things on.
addedDuring all of this I formed a studio with a friend of mine. You can see a lot of his incredible art around the store page! We've been working together on a new version of Worm Slayer. With side projects and burnout it's been in a sort of "prototype limbo," but I believe that the pace will pick up soon.
addedSo that leads to the unavoidable question: When will it come out? Well, to be honest I don't know when, but I do know that I'm way too stubborn to let this game go. It's become a part of my life, and when it comes to game development I've never been one to truly give up on something. Once this version of the game is "more finished" than the current demo version, we'll redo the whole store page and release a new demo.
