Barter Empire to Launch Friday 2/6/2015 9:00 PT
After many months on Greenlight, Barter Empire is finally going to be available on Steam. This is a momentous occasion for all of us here at Mayhem Games USA. Barter Empire started with an idea way back in the summer of 2012 and after two years of development and a successful Kickstarter, we have made it into something for the world to enjoy. We would like to thank everyone involved in the making of the game, and everyone who purchased it from the indie game channels long before it ever made it to Steam. We also would like to thank anyone who purchases and plays the game from this day forward.
