A smaller updates this week, but that doesn’t make it less important. This is version 1.0.0 which signals two things: the game is now pretty much feature complete (in regards to the features I had planned to be in the full game) AND it also means today (as this version goes live on Steam Early Access) the game launches on iOS!
I’m not done with the game yet tho! There are a still a few alternate area’s I want to add to the game, and I have a list of card ideas that I need to go over and check out some of the better ideas for implementing into the game. The plan is to keep the Steam version in Early Access until 2nd or 3rd week of January, this should also be after the various Steam sales and holidays are done.
With this version also comes a nice “launch” trailer which gives a quick overview of the key elements of the game. This Thursday’s vlog will be about the creation of the trailer, giving a little insight on the process behind it, so make sure to check out both videos!
