Tiny Paws - Early Access on January 7th

[p]Dear Tiny Paws community,[/p][p]The day we can finally announce this has arrived: Tiny Paws launches in Early Access on Steam on January 7th, 2025.[/p][p]I want to sincerely thank you for being with us patiently throughout this journey, for guiding us with your feedback, and for believing in this project. As a solo developer, I couldn't have made it here without your support. Every wishlist, every message, and every suggestion has shaped this project.[/p][p]On January 7th, we're beginning Tiny Paws' Early Access journey together. The game is playable with its core features, but the truly exciting part is what comes next. Together with you, through your feedback, we'll grow, develop, and improve the game. This isn't just my project—it's all of ours.[/p][p]Remember, $0.15 USD from every Tiny Paws sale goes to help animals in need. Donations will be made when I withdraw funds from Steam, and the entire process will be shared transparently on LinkedIn. If you'd like to follow the donations, you can follow our LinkedIn account. Together, we're creating something beautiful both in the game world and in the real world.[/p][p]Release Date: January 7th, 2025[/p][p]See you on Discord.
