Hello everybody! It's me, Tapio, the developer behind the textmode JRPG Whispers in the Moss. Here are a couple of short announcements as we get closer to the release of the game.
- WHISPERS IN THE MOSS will be released in JUNE 2024! First and foremost and I'm happy to announce that the game is fully finished, and it will be released in early June 2024. I will still take a moment to improve some aspects of the game and complete some things further down the to-do list. The game has been fully playable from start to finish for about six months already, but I've spent the last months polishing it, adding some new features and creating even more content for the game.
- A COUPLE OF NEW TRAILERS. The game's store page has two new trailers, a regular one and a more gameplay-focused one, showing some of the early parts of the game. Go check them out!
- HOW LONG IS THE GAME? Whispers in the Moss will offer a full-scale JRPG experience. Estimating the amount of gameplay is challenging, but I expect the game to have at least 20 hours of gameplay for the type of player who likes to explore, complete optional stuff et cetera. To give you some idea, I recently made a speedthrough attempt through the game's main story. I used the New Game+ mode, so my characters started at a high level and I was able to complete each battle with ease, I didn't do any exploring, I didn't complete any optional stuff and I skipped through all the dialogue. It took me almost exactly 2 hours to complete the game in this way.
- HELP SPREAD THE WORD! As a part-time solo developer, I've been focusing heavily on getting the game finished. I haven't been able to put much resources on the marketing, so help is needed! If you like what you're seeing, please spread the word. If you're familiar with some niche communities or groups that might be interested in the game, let me know!
That's it for today. Take care, everybody!
