Point of Progress

[p]Greetings,[/p][p]Since the announcement in October 2024 and the NextFest demo in February 2025, the development of Alder Forge 2 was paused for seven months due to health issues. Development resumed in late April 2025, and I’m now able to share a progress update.[/p][h3]Currently, work on Chapter 2, Le Théâtre Macabre, has already begun. This is because, unlike the previous game, Alder Forge 2 will launch in Early Access with both Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 available simultaneously, that is, Phase 1 and Phase 2 will release together at launch.[/h3][p]A confirmed release window and date will be shared with the Alder Forge community as soon as the development and testing of Chapter 2 are complete.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Image Subject: From Chapter 1, Kingdom of Meredith, Gover Castle.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Image Subject: From Chapter 1, Kingdom of Meredith, Lunaria City, Port District.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Image Subject: From Chapter 1, Kingdom of Mereidith, Lunaria City, The Moon Palace.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Image Subject: From Chapter 2, Duchy of Elysia, Saint Marianne City, Les Pêcheurs District.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Image Subject: From Chapter 2, Duchy of Elysia, Saint Marianne City, Arc Des Lions District at night, a view of Arc Des Lions, La Grande Guillotine, and Dame Sangclaire Cathedral.[/p][p][/p][p]The development of Chapter 2 will continue over the coming months, with regular “Points of Progress” updates shared periodically with the Alder Forge community alongside technical development previews, much like in the previous entry.[/p][p][/p][p]Time will also be dedicated to the creation of optional events, particularly the optional bosses and their rewards. Unlike the previous game, these features will be available from the start of each phase.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for your continued patience and for your interest in this world, its characters, and its story. I also want to apologize for the lack of updates since the announcement of Alder Forge 2.[/p]
