All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Greetings everyone!

Welcome to our first ever community monthly update. This will be a monthly summary of what Primordial Empire is up to every month, from events we participated in to sneak peeks of future content, so everyone can keep up with our latest news. Now without further ado, let’s hop right into the actual meat of this post, because there are a lot of great things to cover this month.

Demo launch, and Wishlist Milestone


Watch on YouTube
Primordial Empire's demo was released last month, and we have been blown away by the overwhelming support from all of you. Within two weeks after the demo launch, we managed to hit 5000 wishlists. This is a major milestone for us and we got there way faster than expected. This couldn’t have happened without all of your help, and we’d like to thank you, our passionate community, for getting us there.

Demo Update Patch


A demo launch of many players comes with many pieces of feedback, and we have taken some time to release a patch to address some of the issues mentioned by our community. You can see the full patch log in this previous blog post.

Primordial Empire is still a tiny colony, and we need every bit of resource available to grow. So please keep all the nutritious feedback coming - they are excellent nutrition for us to build up our microscopic empire, one cell at a time.

YouTube Appearances


Looks like Primoridial Empire’s demo release luckily got the attention of quite a few content creators, and our stem cells are making a bit of a ripple on social media. It’s a wonderful sight to see so many gamers excited about our indie colony sim. As a small indie game, we really appreciate them for putting in a good word for us on different platforms and showcasing the game to a wider audience. Here are some of the YouTube videos featuring Primordial Empire:

Seeing all the positive responses from all of you has filled our hearts with energizing plasma to work on future content. Before we go, let’s have a sneak peek at what might come next for Primordial Empire:


You might wonder what this is, and what it might do. Well, we can’t say too much for now, though you can join our Discord server and share your speculations with our community. Please look forward to future updates and we’ll see you in next month’s round-up.
