We have been awfully quiet this year, we know! 😓 Several unexpected life situations have hit the development of the game hard as the pouring rain hits our characters in-game.
Despite these unforeseen troubles, and contrary to some shady sources online (do not trust these), we´re glad to inform you that the development of Noir Storm continues, slowly but steadily. 😎
What´s in store for next year, you wonder? The release of the official DEMO is imminent; we want players to get to know the prologue of the story while we work on Act One development, which is scheduled for release sometime next year on Steam.
The migration of the the entire Act One build, which was already playable on a custom-made system, to the robust Adventure Creator plugin for Unity has proven to be quite an odyssey, but the result is much better than our previous iteration; we could not be happier! 🤟🙂
