If you have been following this project on Steam, but you haven't joined the official Discord server, you might have had the impression that this was just another dead game.
That would be totally fair, as most games are never finished, especially in the indie scene, and this one didn't show any activity for months.

Luckily it is not the case this time!

What happened is that I had to suspend the development for a while because I have been extremely busy with other things IRL. In particular I have been focusing on a career change (for my day job) going from software developer to skydiver. Pretty unusual, I know, but it's what I love and what I am trying to do.

The good news is that thanks to that I quit my old job and starting from today I will be a full time indie developer, at least from Monday to Friday.

Obviously it will take me a a few days to be fully productive again, also because I have to plan a lot of things pretty much from scratch and I will need to get familiar again with everything I had done so far.
Hopefully that won't take too long though, so expect a new monthly update on the 3rd of January 2022 and more regular updates after that.

In the meantime you can join the Discord Server to follow and to influence the development from close. Also don't forget to wishlist and to follow the game on Steam:
