Boxes: Lost Fragments Progress Update

Hello everyone!

We want to thank you for your unwavering patience and support! The last 2 months have been a flurry of non-stop effort as we dedicated ourselves to finishing the game.

Boxes is now in its final form, having undergone several rigorous rounds of internal testing and refinements. However, before we can release it, we still need to test with more players for stability and clarity of the gaming experience.

That’s why we want to invite you to participate in our upcoming closed beta test, scheduled for next week. If you want to play the game earlier and help us test it, please join the Boxes beta-testers channel in our Discord server at https://discord.gg/9yMajRxPSD and stay tuned for further instructions.

Our new target release date is January 25, depending on the successful outcome of the beta test.

Thank you for being part of this exciting journey!

[h3] Big News about a Big Bundle! 🍂🍁[/h3]

Boxes: Lost Fragments Release Date Update

[h3] First, we would like to say a huge ‘Thank you!’ to everyone who follows the game and can’t wait to play it![/h3]

The main reason for the delays is that we decided to make the game bigger and better.

We added first-person puzzle escape gameplay before, between, and after all diorama box levels. This additional gameplay adds variety to our diorama puzzle boxes, making the game more diverse.

Also, it allowed us to tell the story in a much better way, with more cutscenes and a tangible location for where the action happens. We think that the two game modes complement each other quite well. Check out a short teaser of the new functionality here:

That being said, our new target release date is January 11th, 2024.

We expect the game to be ready at the end of November, and we are considering a closed beta test with real players in December. This way the most eager of you can play the full game earlier and for free, and help us with testing the stability.

Thank you, and stay tuned!
