A few more days to wait
Dear Cauldrons of War fans,
Sorry about the delay.
I've changed the release date (slightly).
The reason for it is terrible yet simple:
when I was getting ready to push that one launch button, I came to the realization that a certain number of influencers we had historical links with didn't have the opportunity yet to showcase the game, as a lot of them were not as aware as you are all, dear fans, of the existence of this game or its imminent release.
As an Early Access release is still a release, and treated as such by the Steam algorithm, keeping our original schedule without much further ado would definitely jeopardize the short term discoverability of the game, and impact negatively our reach.
Knowing that, I took the frustrating decision to push a bit further the date in order to give us the best chances.
As you know, Cauldrons of War : Stalingrad is a game developed by one single person (myself) and I have responsibilities towards my fans, but also towards my family, who has been supporting me from the very beginning in this peculiar yet exciting endeavor. I owe it to them to make sure that Cauldrons fares as well as possible in order to make their daily sacrifices worth it.
And if it means adding another small week to the release date of the game in order to focus on marketing, so be it - hope it is fine with you all dear friends.
Apologies again for the lack of feedback in regard of a decision I only reached yesterday evening, in the face of the newer data and trends available to me.
Bear with us a few more days, and I will make sure to make this wait worth your while!
