Current State, Future Development Plans, Thoughts, Feelings and More.

We wanted to make a very open and honest post about development plans, feeling and thoughts about the release. There is no way around this… The Steam release went very bad. we worked very hard to make it on time but we screwed up last moment. A few last-moment bugs we didn’t notice caused a lot of crashes, graphics problems and more issues. Those caused some raging reviews (which totally makes sense)… it was a very bad and hard day for us.


Reading the Steam reviews kinda.. well.. broke us :( . We weren’t sleeping much before the release, working non-stop, and everyone who followed the Patreon journey probably knows how important this game is for us. The fact that we @$#@ed up and bugs and technical issues completely ruined the first experience for so many people was incredibly hard on us.


Since then, we are all sleeping 3-5 hours a night. Really. We are working non-stop to fix everything we can. We WILL fix everything (and we believe we already improved a LOT of the major issues, like crashes and performance). It’s not easy, but we won’t rest until we do it, basing on your feedback.


We are reading every. single. comment. everywhere.
We are fixing ever. single. thing.
We will keep doing that until everything is fixed and works as well as you deserve.


We promise to keep uploading game patches to Steam *at least* once a day, like we have been doing – until the game is as great as intended. Until then we are trying to stay positive, push through the hard days and the hard feeling and prove we deserve your support.


Thank you for being with us.
Every little support and good words mean so much to us at the moment.

I've had bad deployments myself as a developer so I can certainly understand. You will get through this and be stronger as a result. Don't give in. You still have my confidence.
