some new about the future of Animyst
Hey Guys,
Ded and I initiated the process of becoming free to play on steam. We're really excited about the possibilites for Animyst if we start getting more people trying the game out, and generating gameplay and feedback at an accelerated pace.
If you purchased the game, just comment here or join the discussion on our Discord and we will reward you with rare game assets.
One thing this means is we will be looking to develop aspects of Animyst that are paid for, including aesthetic items and possible subscriptions with perks. We will never charge for anything PVP related, everything you can already do and make in Animyst will always be a part of the core game and much much more as well.
more to come on this soon
