Testing & Demo
Due to insufficient testing in the early stages of "Variables" and "Variables 2," we encountered various issues, such as numerous bugs in "Variables" and UI problems in "Variables 2". This time, after careful consideration, we have decided to conduct public testing and offer a free demo on Steam before the game's release! We hope to receive valuable feedback and suggestions from all of you to help us improve the game!
We plan to release a free demo (testing) version of "Esport Godfather" next month! You can add it to your wishlist and follow it to receive updates and even receive an email notification upon the game's release!
Alternatively, you can join our QQ group: 1094866698. During the test period, we will collect feedback and information in the group.
Crowdfunding Campaign
Similar to "Variable 2," we will be launching a crowdfunding campaign on Modian. This time, we have prepared various rewards, including posters, playing cards, mouse pads, badges, fridge magnets, and more. We will also open up avenues for customization. The crowdfunding campaign will allow you to customize clubs, match commentators, in-game items and equipment, sponsors, and even heroes!
When the crowdfunding campaign begins, we will provide reminders on the "Esport Godfather" page.
Giveaways
During the development and release of "Variable" and "Variable 2," our studio received tremendous support from many people. We are deeply grateful to all the friends who participated in the demo and helped us improve the game.
Therefore, when the testing and free demo period begins, we will hold giveaways on Bilibili. The prizes include physical items, custom clubs, heroes, and more!
In addition, we have something big planned!

《Variables 2》 Delay Announce
Delay notice
Question and answer
If a year and a half ago, I made an announcement that the game could not be updated, no creator would give up his own game. If everything doesn't go well in this year and a half, Variable 2 can't be completed, it will break the promise. A year and a half ago, I can't predict what will happen in the future. Therefore, from my point of view, I can't draw cakes in the face of shadowless things.
2. Why if you have Variable then when Variable 2 is developed, the new game will be automatically entered into you Steam Library?
In the end of the Variable,it didn't achieve what I wanted to achieve. I said in the QQ group (126203854) before that, I used to hope that Variable would make me stand up and say that this is the best tower defense game in the world. But until the end, I didn't achieve it. And for a game work, if the creator himself can not be responsible for his own work, then why did it.
So the earliest plan is to make a remake version update on the original version, but in my eyes, rather than remake the original version, it is better to do the second generation of the game, then the new game will be automatically entered into you Steam Library is justified.
3. Will the new game automatically enter the Library affect the quality of the game?
When I do a game, I get a corresponding tattoo, and the Variable tattoo is on the outside of my right arm, and I'm not going to develop a game that I don't approve of myself.
4.Whether the game studio can survive by doing so?
Idealists will die on the road sooner or later, not today but tomorrow. I came out of the company, is to develop my own game, not to start a business, if today I in order to survive to betray my own ideas,anything that has a first time and a second time, there will be a third time,where should I put myself in the end? Besides, to put it bluntly, in terms of design, I believe I'm right. So I believe I won’t die because of hunger. Welcome to be the spiritual shareholders of Asteroid Studio, and don't need to worry too much about whether we can survive.
Variable 2 forecast!* No repeat purchases
Let's make it brief
Variable 2 will go on sale on August 31
