Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel News

UPDATE ON DEMO (and a few more cool things!)

Hey Survivors!

We have some news for you all!

DEMO DATES

First, we would like to update you on the demo release. Recently, we`ve gathered feedback on the current build from our game dev colleagues, industry partners, and peers from other studios. Some of the ideas we received so far add significant value and make a difference, so we've decided to work a bit longer on the game before delivering the demo into your hands. But there is no reason to worry. Although it has been postponed a bit due to the above-mentioned reasons, the demo is coming out SOON!

We will come back to you soon with more updates as we progress with the game’s polishing.

But for the most impatient ones, we are preparing to arrange an…

OPEN CALL FOR EXCLUSIVE BETA TESTING

The juicy part of today's announcement is that before the demo release, we will open a call for a small and intimate closed beta for a limited number of players. These players will be granted an exclusive chance to explore the game, fight hordes of twisted enemies, and share their first impressions and ideas with us!

Dates and details will be announced next week.

And there's more…

DEVLOGS

To keep you closer to the team and the game itself, and to show you more about its inspiration and current progress, we’ll introduce regular devlogs. These will cover a wide variety of themes straight from the Dark Viking Underworld, including its Gods, enemies, gameplay, maps, and more.

Finally, we must say that we are stoked to share our progress with you regularly and look forward to hearing your feedback on every step of this (hopefully epic) journey! Your input is invaluable to us, and rest assured that we will listen to it carefully.

See you on Discord!

Cheers!
