Virvius Update (March 11 2024)

Log - 03/11/24

Notes: With great excitement and relief, Virvius episode 1 development is nearly at it's end. Within the past two months, 3 levels were pushed in record time and managed to even build a final boss for EP1-L10. Going forth there will be some patching, polishing and small features added to the game so we can have a stabilized build for April 6th.

Feel free to try out the newest Demo for Virvius and express any thoughts or concerns or any other game inquiries to the Steam Discussion board or Enfenyx Gaming - Virvius Discord Server. I would love to hear from you!
