- Important info on new update! - 1 July 2025
Hello Wanderers!😺 As you know, according to our Roadmap, we were supposed to send out the final update today, featuring two new scenarios. Unfortunately, this won’t happen just yet, as the past few weeks have been extremely busy for us. We sincerely apologize for the delay and take full responsibility. However... there's also good news! The update is coming, and we hope to release it as soon as possible. In fact, two extra campaigns are already done and currently being translated. The main reason for the delay is... a third campaign we’ve decided to add to the game!So yes — instead of two extra campaigns, you'll be getting three! 🎉Of course, this means we’ll need a little more time (hopefully around two weeks), as we still need to thoroughly test everything. We’ll let you know as soon as the update is ready.Thank you for your patience and understanding! 👍 Traditionally, we would also…

We’re really grateful you’re sticking with us during this journey! 👍 Traditionally, we would also like to encourage you to check out the EBOOK, which contains a short novel (Uriel's Song) offer…

As we approach the launch, we want to share a demo version with the community during one of the upcoming Steam festivals.
