Winter has come... and huge sales with it

We are at a loss for words, truly. After the unexpected delay in development, we did not dare dream of being voted into the Top 100 IndieDB Indie of the Year 2022, yet here we are, right there in the "First Person Shooter" category - thank you, you guys are the best fans a grizzled, hell-bound Templar could hope for!
Rest assured, we are hard at work to deliver you the full version of the game as soon as possible - we have previously stated we expect it to happen in late January or February 2023 and we are on track for that so far, but we are also committed to delivering the game in the best state possible and we will not set a firm release date until we are 100% sure of it.
So once again, thank you everyone for playing the game and supporting us - if you haven't yet, definitely go check out the Top 100 list and vote for your favourite indie games for the Top 10, voting is live until December 21! And in the meantime, here is a tiny little taste of what's to come in the full release of Dread Templar:
Autumn Sale is here and Dread Templar is 20% off
Greetings everyone,
Autumn Sale has just started and Dread Templar is one of the included games. From now until November 29 you can buy the game for 20% off.
We have some important news to tell you. As you may have noticed, the roadmap for Dread Templar said that the game should have left Early Access by the end of October, which unfortunately did not happen. Some of you also received a notification from Steam that said "Out of Early Access now", that we apologize for, the message went out by accident.
So how are things with Dread Templar actually? We have encountered some in-game issues that we hoped to have resolved before the planned release date. These have unfortunately turned out to be more serious than we expected, which eventually stopped us from releasing the game in October. Thus we have decided to give the developer as much time as is needed to finish and polish the game so you could have the best experience possible.
That being said, we are aiming for Dread Templar to leave Early Access by late January / early February. We believe the game will be at its best state by then and you will get what you've been waiting for so patiently!
Thank you very much for understanding and for supporting us! Even with the slight delay, the game is still a banger and we are really looking forward to releasing it! Join our Social Media channels and stay tuned!
