Hello, friends!
Only 2 weeks left until the game releases into Early Access. I'm excited, nervous, happy, and all the other emotions that the human brain can produce after working on a game for 9 years. Even though I've been releasing updates to Adventure Mode since 2017, the arrival of Learn Mode to Steam will be a special milestone.
Here's a new trailer showing what you will be able to do in the initial Early Access version:
I'm also overjoyed to announce the release on August 5 will be the big conclusion of the PixElated Festival, a week-long celebration of pixel art games here on Steam, starting next Monday (July 29–August 5)!
PixElated will include an art contest where the top artwork will get exhibited on the event page for millions to see. But even if you don't win, the top 10 artists will receive a copy of Pixel Art Academy: Learn Mode! I'm happy I was able to contribute the game as a reward for the event.
Check out the official line-up and more information about the event here: https://pixelatedfest.com
I hope you're as excited as I am!
See you at the festival,
