Escape the Mad Empire Playtest live now!
Hello, everyone!
We'd like to thank all of you again for playing our demo; as mentioned in our last post, the feedback that you gave us was very helpful, and we've been hard at work putting it to good use and making changes!
In addition, some of you have been asking whether there would be any further playtests and when they might be happening... and we're excited to let you know that the answer is very soon—right now, in fact! If you're interested in taking a look and helping us gather some more feedback, press that big green "Request Access" button over on our store page to get started!
Once you're all set up and ready for adventure, make sure you're selecting the "Escape the Mad Empire Playtest" entry in your Steam Library—if our demo is still in your library, you'll have two copies of the game listed!
How long is the playtest running for?
We don't have a specific length in mind right now, but we are expecting this one to last for at least a couple weeks. We are also planning to host additional playtest periods, so if you can’t participate this time around, don’t fret!
Where should we post feedback?
You can post on our community Discord or here on Steam's discussion forums as suits your preference—we'll see it regardless!
Is there anything specific that you're looking for feedback on for this playtest?
We've made some changes to the game's difficulty curve and the length and pacing of the tutorial, and of course continued feedback on the game's UI and general quality-of-life matters is always welcome! There have been some other changes as well, so anything goes—we're hoping to hear that your experience has improved!
I wasn’t finished with the demo yet—will I have to start over with this build?
No! If you still have save data from playing the demo, you’ll be able to pick up right where you left off. That said, you should start a fresh game at some point to make sure you see some of the changes that were made to the earliest parts of the game!
We hope to hear back from you all! Get to adventuring!
