Hello Everyone Only 11 days until Shards of Order releases, but we’re still hard at work improving and fixing things to make the game as enjoyable as possible. It's mostly bugfixes, but we’re also adding content, changing sidequests around, improving wording, and all that good stuff, which makes the game a much more seamless experience. Shards Of Order In Action A large portion of our week was…
Polishing the experience Hello Everyone Those last few weeks are especially important because, as we approach the final stretch before the release, we focus mostly on little things that may not make a huge difference in the game on their own, but added together show our love and care for the project. It's hard work, but it really pays off as the game can change its feel completely in a matter o…
Hello Everyone! The release is looming closer and closer, and the game is really taking full shape now. Our last post obviously didn’t cover every change we’ve made throughout the last few months, so this one is gonna show off some of the things we didn't mention. Shield Cap A major balancing factor is tying the maximum shields you can gain to your current equipment. A major factor in that is o…
Hello Everyone! It’s been some time since we last posted here, and we have some explaining to do. The last two months certainly haven’t been easy; we’ve had a couple of internal issues, but we’ve managed through them. Now, we’re nearing the last stretch of the development cycle for Shards of Order, and in celebration of that, we’ve decided to take a little time off to talk about what has change…

Hello Everyone! Last time we posted was around a month ago, and what a month it has been. We’re finishing the last area of the game and designing the final boss, and I wish we could just show everything off, but we’d rather you play the game and experience it all by yourself. We’re not really implementing any new mechanics at this stage and are just pumping out tons of content, which we don't w…
Hey everyone! As mentioned in our previous posts, the development is progressing well, but as the playtime keeps increasing, there’s more room for holes, balance issues, and those pesky bugs. And so, the time has come, when we come asking for your help. If this game is something you’re passionate about and want to help out with, we implore you to sign up for our playtesting program. Before the…
Hello Everyone The game is growing at a steady pace, and it constantly impacts how we see things; it challenges our initial systems and established foundations.

Enjoy! Balance Changes We were initially s…
Hello Everyone! This week we prepared something new, a post dedicated entirely to exploring the worldbuilding and lore around our game.

They’re not meant to spoil the story of the game, but to help unfold and wrap our heads around the…
Hello Everyone! The main story of the game is more than half way finished. We’re making content at a very good pace and are already expecting the game to go well past the 10 hour of gameplay mark. However the most important thing is that this time is not filled up by repetitive fetch quests, and boring stories. As the game grew we came up with new ideas, expanded our tools and I personally thin…

Hello Everyone◝(ᵔᗜᵔ)◜ With the Christmas festivities behind us, we decided to take this time to reminisce.
