Vendetta: Mafia Wars now available on Steam Early Access!
We are excited to offer our game to you in early access. Our game is not yet fully completed and we are aware that there are many bugs and missing features. During the early access period, we will be working on fixing those issues and adding new features. We will also be taking into consideration feedback and suggestions from players who purchase the game during early access and add their ideas to the game. This is why your feedback is very important to us. The truth is, the game can be better and we want to provide the best possible version of the game to you. Therefore, we have also made an effort to be fair in terms of pricing.
We are a small team developing this game and early access sales are crucial for us to make more investment in the game. We would like to thank all the players who have supported us since the demo phase.
About Demo & Early Access
As you already know, we have put out our demo for the Next Fest and decided to keep it live for a more extended period so you can play more. We have now taken down the demo so we can fully focus on the early access version of the game. Thank you for all the feedback that you have left on the game in the time. There were a lot of ideas that could shape/change the game for the better. These ideas have now been added to our roadmap and we are working on them. This being said, we have changed the release date of the early access version from November to the first quarter of 2023.
See you in the early access, stay tuned!
About Demo & 0.40.0 Update
Goodfellas,
We intended to remove the demo after Steam Next Fest. However, we chose to keep the demo up and running for a longer period of time. We've had amazing feedback from the demo, which really is helpful. We plan to offer core mechanical improvements via demo rather than open beta tests. With your help, we hope to increase the amount of feedback and test opportunities that we can offer. We believe it will allow us to address in advance for the majority of problems that may develop in the early access phase. We will continue to provide improvements to the demo through the end of the month. Perhaps we can extend this period until early access.
Thank you very much for your feedback and encouragement. Please share your ideas with us in the Steam discussion section.

Steam Next Fest 2022
Goodfellas,
On October 3 at the Steam Next Fest celebration, you can play the Vendetta Mafia Wars demo. The demo will only be available during the event. After the event, it will be removed from the store.
You will see a simplified and straightforward representation of the game mechanics in the demo. Please make your assessments in this context and share them with us in the discussion section. Please feel free to offer recommendations that could enhance the game's experience. We have a small team working on the project, and we are really passionate about it.
We'll make another announcement on early access near the end of October. We'll start updating you more frequently on the progress in November.
