[p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p][p]Hey everyone,[/p][p]Just dropping in with a quick update I’m officially closing the Steam Playtest for Nekogumi. It’s been a quiet journey, and while the feedback was limited, I want to thank those of you who gave it a try. Even if you didn’t leave feedback, I appreciate the time you spent checking it out. This phase was meant to help shape the game, and while it didn’t bring much in terms of insight, it did help me realize what I need to do next. I’ll be moving forward with a demo with some polishing so hopefully more people would get to see/try it. This was my first time using the playtest system, and I’ll admit the setup and timing weren’t ideal. But I guess that’s part of the challenge of being a developer—especially a solo one. Better get used to screaming at a wall and grow thicker skin. Anyway, thanks again to those who showed up. Moving on…[/p][p]Ki-nodes Studio[/p][p][/p]
