The Oaken Tower Early Access is now live!
It’s been one year since launching the demo. I’m incredibly proud to be sharing the Early Access build with you all. As a solo developer, it’s been amazing seeing tens of thousands of you play the demo and rack up hundreds of hours (10% of you to be exact!). I want to say a huge thank-you to everyone who has taken the time to play the game and provide feedback, which has helped shape Oaken Tower.
So, what’s new in Season 1 of Early Access...
Plus tons of quality-of-life tweaks, balancing and bugfixes!
Ands that’s not all...over the coming days and weeks, you can expect regular patches and updates as I tweak the balance, gameplay and presentation based on player feedback. For those of you who want to share feedback, or be part of the active community, join us in discord here.
And as a bonus, for those who have been around since day one, I have created an ‘Oldschool’ branch with the old artwork. If you would like to try this out:
1. Right click on Oaken Tower in your library,
2. Select Properties -> Game Versions & Betas
3. Choose the branch called ‘Oldschool’.
The Oldschool branch contains Witch + Storm and some QoL updates such as a bigger inventory, and a dedicated shopping phase background.
Now the Early Access servers are live I've had to deactivate the demo. I would’ve loved to keep it live but as a solo-dev it’s going to be challenging managing multiple branches. Although, I will explore whether it's feasible to reactivate it in the future with all the updates, patches and balance changes.
Thank you again for all your support over the last year, and I really hope you all enjoy battling each other in Early Access!
