Finally, after two years of hard work, CivIdle is now available on Steam Early Access! This is not my first game on Steam (that would be Industry Idle), but man, nothing beats the feeling of pressing the "Release" button and bringing your creation to the world.
The release went alright: I was worried that the progress transfer between the demo and early access would not work but it did. I was worried that the server would crash but it didn't.
After the release, I was surprised to see lots of familiar faces in the in-game chat, from the early Industry Idle days. I'd like to thank all the moderators, playtesters, and players (whether you played Industry Idle or CivIdle) - the game would not be possible without your support. There were so many times I was questioning myself and was about to give up, it was your encouragement and feedback that kept me going.
Early access is only the beginning - those of you who've followed Industry Idle since the early days know that 80% of the content was added after early access. I have the same plan for CivIdle - I will post the content plan here as long as I put together something. But for now, enjoy the game and the friendly community, while I get some sleep - lots of work to do tomorrow!
Cheers,
