[p]Hello, bumpslashers. First, we'd like to celebrate the successful release and all the players! It's been amazing. Marina and I have been so grateful that everyone has enjoyed Angeline Era's new and mysterious approach to action-adventure games, and that so many of you have taken the time to recommend the game to your friends. It really means the world to the both of us![/p][p]If you have the time, please leave a quick review on Angeline Era's store page!!! They really can help us out.[/p][p]Other than that. The game is still on sale for about 1.5 more days! After that it'll be a while before you can pick it up at a discount.[/p][p]I've created a new set of bundles including Angeline Era for the holiday season. As you may know, Marina and I have been making games for a long time. So if you already own Angeline Era, you can now purchase Anodyne 1 or Anodyne 2 at a discount with new complete-the-set bundles. We hope you'll enjoy playing through some of our past work![/p][p][/p][p]Yes, you can now collect trading cards from playing Angeline Era! Acquire enough, and you may be able to send a bugdog in chat to one of your friends. Or, a sack of compost.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I took the time to do a little 1-week-after writeup on the game, reflecting on the game's mechanics, reception, and themes. Check it out here: https://melodicambient.substack.com/p/1-week-after-angeline-era[/p][p][/p][p]We still have a few new languages planned in the coming months. First up is Simplified Chinese, coming sometime in the next few weeks. In the new year, we have three more languages planned: LATAM Spanish, Russian, and German. [/p][p][/p][p]I cannot confirm anything yet, but we are in the process of getting some wheels moving...[/p]
