Short but sweet, with over 500 playtesters signing up over the course of 3 days was a great success! We've learned a lot about the good things and bad things about the game and to make the best of our time we decided to end the test prematurely to focus on developing and improving the game!

Watch out for the next playtest and if you feel you want to be a dedicated playtester with access to the full game, let us know on Discord!

A big thanks to our community,
