[h3]Gamer Assembly[/h3]


We were at Poitier France from the 16th to the 18th of April, it was really a very rewarding experience.
Playing with the players, taking direct feedback and talking with other independant developer was really amazing. We also want to thank Ylaff from the Discord who came to help us!
We also learn from our mistakes and plan to print more business cards for the next event which is none other than the...

[h3]Stunfest[/h3]


From the 20th to the 22nd of May we will be present at the Stunfest which takes place in Rennes in France, we will be in the indie games area which is free. So you don't have to buy tickets to try the new solo and multiplayer modes but oops, did I say too much?

[h3]Tutorial[/h3]
We had to make some concessions and decide to pause the tutorial in order to be ready for the Stunfest. We are thinking about incorporating a short video explanation to have something for new players, even if it is not interactive this trade of seems the best option for now.

[h3]Solo[/h3]

The solo mode was supposed to be an adventure of a character crossing ancient Greece, we decided to discard this idea in order to offer you a content less narrative but more focused on combat. Making a real good narrative adventure requires a lot of time and resources and since we are a small team we prefer to focus on the gameplay first. This decision was also based on feedback from players who said they would rather have more tactical options than a complex story. This will allow us to focus more on the combat and replayability of our game. We should present you the new version of the solo mode next week.

[h3]Multiplayer[/h3]
This week we also put the multiplayer mode back together to make it available to the alpha testers but also to the people who would come to visit us at the Stunfest and the Bordeaux Geekfest. We can't wait to see the players fighting each other!
