Despite our best intentions, setting a release date will take some time and we'll have to wait with the champagne, but at this point Q2 2024 remains.

To sweeten the wait, it won't be long before Emi starts to systematically showcase the game on Twitch, during which she will go through much more advanced ones. The stream announcement will, as usual, appear earlier here.

We are partially done with the closed testing of the full version with the community. As usual, you have provided a huge amount of feedback to help us complete the game. We still have doubts about the difficulty level - as always, opinions are divided as to whether it is too difficult or whether the difficulty level is appropriate, no less we need additional verification that the latest changes after testing are satisfactory. So we will be extending the tests to include more people.

We have also made a significant change to the game's content. At the very beginning of the game's development, we were going to add a sandbox mode, which was removed over time in favour of the 39 missions that were going to be available right from the start of the game. These are the same 39 missions that the player plays through in the campaign mode, which changes different parameters from mission to mission - there's no need to repeat it, everyone knows what it's about.

Well, the change is that we are bringing back the sandbox by adding a whole new mission where everything the game has to offer is available to you right away. So you'll be able to build all the buildings, you'll be able to get all the resources, you'll be able to import and export everything. You can also choose to play in peace mode. Everything will be available, except for the main events, because they are pointless here. So I present to you the first Sandbox mission, Horn of Plenty:

What about the other 39 missions? From now on, they will be unlocked as the player progresses through the campaign. In other words, each level completed during the campaign will unlock that level from the scenario menu. Does this mean that it will not be possible to bypass the first 4 missions and skip ahead? A special cheat will help all veteran builders to do just that.

In the meantime, as usual, we invite you to our Discord. That's it for now, we're waiting for the release date!

Take care!
