WooLoop News

The final QA Stream before Next Fest!
We have made many changes this week, most of which have been recommended by you the player!

Stop by and say hello whilst I QA the game before the start of Next Fest

The free WooLoop Demo is available right now! We have made the game available early, ahead of the October Next Fest starting next week. So if you would like to give our game a try now is the time to do so!

The full release of the game will be free so the Demo shows off a snippet of what the game will be upon release. Jump in now to try a variety of 18 different levels - many more of which will be available at the full release of WooLoop next year.

We are still in the process of developing WooLoop so expect there to be differences between the Demo experience and the final product.

With that in mind, we are actively seeking feedback. Please fill out the after-game questionnaire to let us know how you found your time with WooLoop! As well as this, please jump into our Discord server where we have dedicated chat rooms to talk directly to the Devs about WooLoop.

A lot of the updates you see below come from community feedback!

• Added a Game Tutorial

• Fixed a bug that would incorrectly inform you of making a mistake interacting with a starting instruction

We are collecting and reviewing all of the feedback being provided by our players. From this, and our in-house QA, we are constantly improving the WooLoop experience to make it the best we can!

You can follow along on our progress on all of our socials or by stopping by on Fridays on the store page to watch the Devs live stream WooLoop.
