We got an Epic MegaGrant!

Hey everyone!

as those of you following the development of BattleJuice Alchemist might know, I am a big fan of Unreal Engine. It is so accessible, especially its blueprint system gives developers like me who do not consider themselves a programmer first the opportunity to tackle big projects. Beside providing this great tool, Epic Games financially supports game developers and other creators using it.

About half a year ago I applied for an Epic MegaGrant and two days ago I received a congratulatory mail of acceptance from Epic Games. I am incredibly thankful and excited to be counted among the recipients.



At the end of 2021 I commited to developing BattleJuice Alchemist full-time and expanded Alchemical Works into a small team. The MegaGrant comes just at the right point in time for us, I almost can't believe it.

I am so happy and also want to thank everybody following along the development of the game. I know some of you are developers as well, so if you use Unreal Engine, consider applying for a MegaGrant. I wasn't sure if there was a chance of being chosen as an indie dev with his first title, but evidently it is.

Have a wonderful weekend everybody!
