We are live guys! Pumpkin Days has been publicly released for all to play and test out. I must stress again, this is not a completed game, we are still in early access. However, some players who have been playing the closed beta have reportedly played for between 15-30+hrs so there is content to enjoy. We will also be making patches as frequently as we can to fix major issues as they arise. I'll be pinning another post with community information. Special thanks to everyone who helped us along the way on this journey. We are still not done as there are still some features promised that we need to introduce to the game.
Thank you again, I hope you enjoy. If you have any issues please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

June Development Report, Launching soon.
Hey guys, our development report for June is out. You can read about on our website over here. Our goal is to have a public release this month, we're not sure exactly when though. There are a few things we want to tidy up first and then everyone will be able to play Pumpkin Days.
However, keep in mind we are an early access game, which means Pumpkin Days will have some hiccups and possibly some missing content. However, we have closed Beta testers who have reported played over 25 hours of the game and are still playing, so hopefully, there is enough content that can be enjoyed.
If you have any comments or questions please reach out to us.
Thank you again.
Closed Beta For Kickstarter Backers Released!
Closed Beta for Kickstarter backers is currently out. We need 6 - 8 weeks of bug fixes and polish before making a public Beta release. However, we're close.
If you are currently in closed beta, welcome to the game! I hope you are having lots of fun playing despite the bugs. We have a patch planned for June 22nd, that will hopefully tackle most of the bugs as well as add new features. If you have any questions or need help with the game, let us know.
May Development Report 2019
We’re happy to announce that Pumpkin Days will release to Kickstarter backers this upcoming weekend! If you are a backer, instructions on how to get your key will be sent via the Kickstarter blog.
Our hope is to release the game in early access to the public sometime this July or August, but we’ll let you know for sure over the next few months. For now, here’s what we’ve been working on as we get ready for the Kickstarter release.
Hey guys! Development of Pumpkin Days has been going very well! Currently, we are on track to releasing a closed Beta release to Kickstarter backs in 5 - 8 weeks. We hope everything continues to go well so that we can meet this deadline. In regards to a public release, that will come later in July or August. Please visit our website to read up our monthly development report for more details. I also encourage you to join us on Discord if you want to talk to the developers directly, ask questions, or give suggestions for the game. Thank you for your support!
Yay, it's our first community announcement. Wow guys, it's been a long journey, but it's happening. We've been quietly developing in our little corner for so long, but this year there should be more activity as we prepare to launch for early access in a few months.
Currently, our page says we are a single-player game. That will be updated before we launch as we take our time and work on getting multiplayer up and running. But for now, that just reflects what we have implemented so far.
You can find the devs on discord if you want to closely follow our development. If you have any questions or comments about Pumpkin Days please feel free to contact us. We're friendly.
