The Phantom Fellows Releasing in 2024!
Hi! Hey. Sup. Starting this with Fellow Adventurers gives this whole thing a real hear ye hear ye vibe, right? Like now I don't know how to frame this, it's all suddenly very Monty Python-y in my head. Okay look, listen, let's not make this a whole thing, just, here's a quick update:
I'm almost done, omg this was kinda hard.
But also, I gave the artwork quite a massive overhaul a few months ago, maybe it was a year now, doesn't matter, and so the original demo now makes me sad to look at. The original demo is like my game's awkward puberty stage and now I want all pics of it removed from the internet. So, at the end of January (2024) I will be releasing an updated Demo, featuring all the new art and the new UI and just, all the new everything.
Okay demo portion covered, SHEK.
On to the full release! First of all, gross, hate that wording. Next of all, the full game is about to enter public beta testing! While it's being tested and fixed, and tested and fixed, I will also be creating and recording the soundtrack. I have no firm idea of when it'll be done and while this was kind of a 'on the DL' thought, if you're reading this, you deserve to know, I'm hoping to have the game ready for the Adventure Game Hotspot Fan Fair, this summer. For reasons. Possibly related to being in the Adventure Game Hotspot Network and wanting to bring some show n tell with me to the, the thing. The convention. Also come to the convention, it's gonna be rad.
Ok I'm all done, thanks for reading this, please tell people about it or retweet stuff or like, I don't know, drink more water? Okay good talk.
I hope you're all doing well, I love you, don't do a mur- oh wait, wrong, that's a different thing.
