Hey,
We've decided to postpone the Early Access release of As We Descend, so we're no longer launching on March 27th. We've had to make difficult decisions, but we felt it was the right call to make sure the game will be as good as possible for its launch.
The new release date is currently undecided. Why? A big factor of the decision was the huge influx of feedback, discussion, and reviews from Steam Next Fest. We want to dig down into the heart of the feedback and make the proper changes; it will take time to test the changes and iterate them with our community. Even though Early Access only represents the start of the journey for us, we don't want to rush the launch of the game and we want to optimize the playability of the game even from day 1. As We Descend adds a ton of new mechanics into the roguelike deckbuilder space that give it a unique feeling, and we want to give the proper introduction for these gameplay systems.
I know you're excited for the launch of the game (as are we!), so we'll have followup news for you regarding the release date before the end of the month. We'll be continuing to test the game in our closed beta, and we'll have further news about the demo shortly.

Stay tuned,

P.S. We'll be keeping the demo up, so you can continue to try out the game and leave reviews and feedback for us as we continue on the road to release. If you tried out the Demo already, make sure to make your thoughts heard, whether it's critical or positive!
