Exophobia at DreamHack Beyond Game Awards!
Hey, Zarc here!
We are approaching the end of the year, with this time filled with many events and award cerimonies to celebrate this year in gaming!
This next week (15-21 Dec) Exophobia will be part of DreamHack Beyond Game Awards, which showcases upcoming and released indie games and awards them in different categories. No nomination for Exophobia though (the only category it could be nominated for was Most Antecipated Game), but it's an honor to be selected and among so many cool games!
To celebrate this and give you an early holiday gift I've updated the Steam page with shiny new graphics from the cover art and the demo with the latest code in the game! You'll find it has less bugs, is a little more forgiving than the past demo and even has a couple of new features like the map you can open anywhere!
So please, play the updated demo and wishlist Exophobia if you haven't! DreamHack is giving prizes for wishlisting! #DHBGameAwards
Also, for all your fans waiting for the game, let me give you some good and bad news.
Bad news is, you might have noticed that the release date has changed to 2024. I'm working hard with the publisher to release as early as possible in the next year as this year has been hard on all of us to work on a release.
Good news is that the game is finished! And I'm very proud of the result. The game is fun and filled with cool stuff that will keep you playing for hours! The soundtrack is also finished and I can't wait for you all to listen to it. It's 1 and half hours of pumping jams! So right now, there's only background work to get ready for release. Thanks for sticking with me all this time on my first big game release!
Don't know if I'll have any more updates until the end of the year, so...
Have a great holiday season!
