Playtest and demo on the way! Also: Finnish Games Week 2025
[p]Welcome to the first installment of the Mysteries of Old Tokyo devlog.[/p]![]()
[/p][p]I had hoped August would be a productive month, and it was: Mysteries of Old Tokyo now has a complete gameplay loop, improved graphics, sound effects, all-new travel options, and a tutorial.[/p][p]Because of that, I'm keen (and a little scared) to start getting your feedback! That's why I'm planning a playtest sometime in September. As always, there are probably hundreds of things that I don't see, or have got used to, or simply never thought of.[/p][p]The playtest will be held through Steam together with a Discord to collect feedback. If you're interested, just follow for updates by clicking the Follow button on the store page, or keep an eye out on the socials:[/p][p]@bolero_game on Threads[/p][p]@bolerosoft on Bluesky[/p][p]As well as the playtest, which will be open to everyone who wants to try, I'm hoping soon to release some kind of demo? Ideally that will coincide with...[/p][p][/p]![]()
[/p][p]I'm also excited to announce Mysteries of Old Tokyo will be participating in the first-ever Finnish Games Week Steam Event from October 6-10! Kiitos paljon, och samma på svenska.[/p][p]As a happy resident of Finland for some years now, I'm really proud to be included in this event. As a country of just 5 million, Finland really punches above its weight in the game industry. [/p][p]In fact, one of the first things I ever learned about Finland was that Max Payne was from Finland and this weird guy called Sam Lake made it. Perhaps you've played one of these Finnish games:[/p]
Playtest (September) and demo (TBD)!
