With this awesome news comes a very important step and a super urgent reminder!
During the past few months we have done our best to update the game with countless bug fixes, quality of life updates and fun new content - all very much guided by your feedback and fueled by your kind words. Now we're finally reaching the point where we feel that our work has enough value to be priced as a full product - and still remain respectful to all new players alike. That means it is also the time to update the game to its final pricing, as mentioned in our Early Access FAQ, which should be going into effect by the end of this week.
And finally, it also means that if you haven't purchased the game yet, this remaining period will be your last chance to grab your Early Access badge of honor - meaning the Unicorn Onesie costume for Voltaire and Morgana, which will remain exclusive for players that support the game during the Early Access period, these last few weeks included!
To everyone who has already played the game, given us feedback or nudged us forward with kind words - thank you sooo much for your continued support!
Don’t forget - we have tons of content, all vegan and floaty, across our social media. Give us a shout on Twitter, or come chat with us in Discord. We’re always here to listen, give tips 😉, and talk about your feedback!
Now sharpen your fangs, rinse your veggies, and get ready to enjoy Voltaire 1.0!
🦇 Ta-ta for now 🦇
