Greeting Portal Wanderers!
It’s been an amazing ride over the past year with you guys playing the Portal Fantasy demo — and we’ve loved seeing so many of you jump in, explore the Kingdom of Pyli, capture creatures, and help shape the game’s development with your feedback. 💖
But in the same you dispel Porbles at the fusion altar, so we must dispel the demo before the full launch on the 3rd of April.
The demo will only be available until this weekend, as we begin final preparations for the full launch! If you haven’t played it yet, now’s your last chance to dive in and get a feel for the world before the portals close (for now).
Will your progress be carried on to the full version? Great question! Over the past year, we’ve made significant improvements to game balance, quest progression, and overall consistency across the game. Because of these major changes, progress made in the demo won’t carry over to the full version as it would break the game for the majority of you. We know that’s a bummer for some — but it’s all in service of making Portal Fantasy the best it can be.
We originally were hoping to be able to keep it but realized that with over 200.000 players it would be impossible to ensure every game would be perfect.
But wait! There’s good news. To thank everyone who supported us during the demo period, all demo players will receive a special Jellyfish Familiar when the full game launches! It’s our little way of saying: you were here from the beginning, and that means the world to us (and to JeeJee as well). 💙
And if you have any redeem codes worry not, your Toadshoom suits and capybara can be redeemed again in the full version.
No Demo Next Week, But... Big Things Ahead!
Next week may feel a little quiet without the demo, but don’t worry — we’re not going anywhere. In fact, we’re gearing up to share something very exciting: our brand-new trailer and our roadmap for Portal Fantasy future updates. Stay tuned — it’s almost time to open the next set of portals and discover new porbles, quests and biomes. 🔮
Thanks for being part of the journey so far! You fuel us to create this game
PS - don't tell anyone but here is a quick sneak peek of part of the trailer.
