The Chronicles Of Myrtana: Archolos News

Release summary

Hear ye, hear ye, people of Archolos!

Three days ago The Chronicles Of Myrtana was released, and we have to admit that we didn't expect for a moment such a response and such a good reception! At the time of writing this post, the rating on Steam is "overwhelmingly positive" (98%) with almost 1400 votes, and at its peak the game was played by almost 10,000 people (on Steam alone).

We are also proud to announce that we have been nominated for the prestigious 'Mod of the Year 2021' award on the Moddb platform and are currently second among the most popular mods! If you like the Chronicles, we would be very grateful to you for voting for us. We believe that with your help, anything is possible!

We would also like to thank all the people who were in any way involved in the creation of The Chronicles of Myrtana. This project would never see the light if not for the commitment and dedication of dozens of people, who often have never even been involved in modding. If we were to list everyone here, this post would go on forever, but we are grateful for all the help and good words we have received along the way.

At the same time, we are aware of the problems that some of you have encountered. We are currently working on fixing all the bugs you send us. The smaller ones have been fixed in minor patches, but a bigger patch should be released in the near future. Rest assured, though, that you will be able to continue the game regardless.

Many of you have been asking how you can support or help us. Just a reminder - any financial support goes only to the maintenance of the servers. None of the team members receive any remuneration for working on the modification. The biggest reward and support for us is your positive feedback on the game and the fact that every day you sit down to it with such an enthusiasm!

May Adanos be with you!
