Happy release day to everyone! Followers, players, streamers and press.
Today is a very special day for us, since today we launch Hack and Slime's early access! After a year of hard work we have a Hack and Slime version with enough content to consider it as a starting point.
And since we are so excited about the launch of our game, we have 2 surprises for you:
- Hack and Slime will cost €3.39/$4.24 for early birders! Anyone who buys it the first month will enjoy this super special price.
- The Hack and Slime demo will be available throughout Steamfest, so if you haven't played it yet, what are you waiting for? put it on your wish list and get ready to crush Slimes.
Before continuing with the changelog we want to give special thanks to:
- All players and supporters who have selflessly helped us with testing and QA during the pre-alpha phase.
- The almost 1400 users who have already added Hack and Slime to their wish list in just 6 months.
- All the streamers, curators, and press that have helped us get our game out there to more people than we could ever dream of.
- All the friends who have shown us their support and interest during a year full of hard work.
- To you, who are reading this, you are super cool.
