Greetings Gamers!
Happy Holidays! The Unwelcomed is 30% off during the Steam Winter Sale!
It feels like forever since we've been able to post a new release news article! We're all excited to show you what we've been doing for the last 6 months. If you have played the game previously, we hope that you check it out again, as we've made some sweeping changes to ensure that the experience is as flawless as possible and even more enjoyable. For those who are picking it up for the first time, enjoy! We think you'll be pleasantly surprised by not only the amount of content, but the quality and thought that has been put into our project.
While we know we may not be the best game on the market, or the most streamlined, we know that we've done something great here and all of our devs are very happy with the turnout, not only of the game itself, but of the community that is behind it. Without you all, we wouldn't have a reason to spend countless hours ensuring that it looks 'just right'.
As we are drawing close to the end of our Early Access development period, we ask that anyone who has the time, please take a moment to review us as well as leave feedback for any issues that you've encountered. This will ensure that when we do move out of Early Access, that we'll be as polished as possible and that any one playing our full game for the first time will benefit from the experience and input from the gaming community.
