We wanted to drop a quick line from the Burst2Flame games bunker and give you a transparent look at what's occupying the three of us right now.
We've made a pivotal decision, primarily driven by financial realities, to focus our full efforts on Stolen Realm Survivors.
Our goal is simple: get Survivors into your hands as quickly as possible! Being a small team of three, focusing all our energy on one project is the most efficient and sustainable way to deliver a quality game, and right now, that project is Survivors.
We haven't forgotten the original Stolen Realm—far from it! We sincerely apologize for the radio silence; we've been completely heads-down getting Survivors ready.
We have attempted to reproduce and fix the highest priority bugs in Stolen Realms. However, we must be transparent: some of the more severe issues the community has reported sadly require an entire engine rewrite to properly fix, which is not something we have the bandwidth or resources for at the moment. We are committed to tackling what we can, but we want to set realistic expectations on the most persistent problems.
Please know that after Stolen Realm Survivors launches, we will reassess our roadmap. This means we will look into either pushing out new updates for the original Stolen Realm or potentially dive straight into development on Stolen Realm 2. Rest assured, the world you love will continue to grow!
For those of you ready to jump into our new project, here's when you can join the fight:
Early December: We have a Playtest planned for Survivors. Sign up now for your chance to participate: https://stolenrealmsurvivors.firstlook.gg/
February: We'll have a full Demo ready to launch for Nextfest, giving everyone a chance to try it out!
Wishlist the game!
Thank you, truly, for following us on this journey. We feel incredibly lucky to have such a passionate and supportive community backing our work.
Happy gaming!
The Burst2Flame Dev Team
