The feedback from the Black Hollow playtest has been incredibly valuable so far. Every bug report, suggestion, and piece of criticism has helped me better understand what works, what needs improvement, and where the game should go next.
Because of that, I plan to keep the playtest open and continue updating it while I build out a stronger gameplay loop, add more meaningful features, and improve the overall experience.
Once Black Hollow feels complete enough to properly represent the game, the playtest will transition into a fully fledged demo.
Thank you to everyone who has played and shared feedback. Your input is directly helping shape the future of Black Hollow.
