Calling all goblins!
Hey everyone, I'm currently hard at work crafting the game's first public demo build! I was going to jump straight into one big demo release, but I would like to have that build be as polished as possible before releasing it into the wild (plus I don't want to work on the trailer for it yet). So instead Gobutiko will be opening sign ups for its first public playtest session!
What's in the box?
The playtest will cover the starting area of the game with a limited item pool. Here's what's in it:
- Tavern interactions
- Guild Supply Shop
- Random Villager merchants
- Run the shop
- Basic hand decorating (This means no wall/floor editing just place/move furniture)
When does the shop open?
Sign ups should be available starting today May 12th. I'll be submitting a build for review this week, so depending on when that gets approved you can expect the to be able to start playing at this earliest by this weekend, but more likely Monday May 19th.
Side bar
I usually prefer not to talk about things when they're subject to change so things end up feeling a bit quiet on announcements here as I'm always in the shop trying to polish up the counters. You can usually find smaller bite-sized looks at the game's progress over on the bluesky account, but I will start making some longer posts here even if they're not set in stone.
