The full version of the game also has several areas of polish, improvements and bug fixes not seen in Early Access.
There are new screenshots from the full release available to view on the Steam Page. We will be updating more assets as we get closer to launch day.
The Forbidden Arts has been in development for more than 4 years total, and 1.5 years in Early Access alone. As many of you know, this is a passion project, and it’s great to bring my vision to life. Thank you to everyone who has shown interest in the game and supported our development cycle. We have listened to so much feedback over the past 1.5 years and worked hard to integrate changes and make improvements.
The price of the game will increase to $14.99 USD on launch day, so if you are looking for any sort of discount, purchasing the game now will save you a couple bucks. At this point, I would advise against playing the Early Access version of the game as the full release is a bit more polished and only a few weeks out.
Over the next few weeks I’m going to be writing/posting some Blogs about our development cycle, experience in Early Access, the challenges of porting and optimizing the game to Nintendo Switch, and possibly other topics. It’s a great time to reflect on the development of the game, and for those of you interested in reading my Blogs, just follow Stingbot on Twitter, like Forbidden Arts on Facebook or check out our Blog on our website: http://www.stingbotgames.com
August 7, 2019!
