Hi Everyone,
With the start of the Autumn Sale, nominations for this year’s Steam Awards are underway and we’d like to ask for your support by nominating Clanfolk for the Labor of Love Award.
Clanfolk entered Early Access on July 14, 2022, and since then there have been 12 Major Updates as well as over 400 testing branch updates (which is open to everyone under Clanfolk/Settings/Betas).
As the solo developer of Clanfolk, I am incredibly thankful for the support from both Hooded Horse, as well as the Steam and Discord communities. Thank You!
Everyday I look forward to seeing what will come next with Clanfolk. Interacting with the community has provided inspiration and has often lifted my spirits. Clanfolk has become a better game due to all of you.
Clanfolk has been in full time development for almost 7 years now, and the community has been growing since the original demo went live for Next Fest in October 2021.
Most recent updates wise, there have been Cats and Rats, Bogs and Bagpipes, Idea Points Mode, Hunters and Hunted, Zones and Decoration, and Hearth and Home.
Between the big updates there is constant work on the testing branch, usually multiple builds a week. These updates take the form of optimizations, lots of bug fixes, and experimental ideas that we’ve worked on together.
The next big thing will be the Story Generator. There is a working version in the testing branch now if you are curious. The Story Generator will be what adds variety to each play through by applying external forces to the homestead. It will answer the question “what now?” once the Clan has secured a warm home after the first couple Winters.
Clanfolk wouldn’t be here without you, the community, supporting our game throughout development.
I am incredibly grateful for your support.
It is a bit of a long shot, but please consider checking the nominate button that is part of this post for the 2023 Labor of Love award. It really is :)
Thanks Again!
Andrew (Blorf) Hume
