Message from Team Illegal Turtle

Hi, we are the Illegal Turtle team!
Unfortunately, we have to delay the release of Bard Idle a bit.

Earlier it was planned to be released in March this year, but now, as you know, the deplorable situation with Russia and Ukraine is lowering our morale and making adjustments in our daily lives.
In such a state, it is difficult to say anything about the exact release dates, or to build plans.
We hope that the situation will begin to clear up soon, and that peaceful times will come.
For now, we continue to work on the game, and we really want to make sure the postponement doesn't drag on!
We'll be in touch.
