Yo! It's release day today!
After a short delay and lots of polishing, I'm super stoked to be releasing PIGFACE into Early Access. It's been a long road to get to this point, but it's been immensely gratifying every step of the way.
It's kind of weird seeing PIGFACE evolving from a prototype into a game, I still remember the feeling I got the first time I was able to load into a level from the apartment -- it started to make the game feel like it was part of a world. Now, there are a few more levels, with plenty to come, and that feeling of persistence has kept growing.
My hope is that by the time 1.0 rolls around, PIGFACE will feel like a part of something a lot bigger than itself. That was one of the main goals I had, internally, for this project. A goal that went beyond just gameplay and aesthetic. I feel like, for me, games are really magical when they can sell you the idea that there's something beyond the billboarded background trees and closed-off doorways at the map's boundaries. I tried to put some of that magic in PIGFACE, just a bit.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy the launch! I'm already hard at work for the first content update that'll keep pushing the game and its story forward. I can't wait to hear all the feedback and see all the videos people make about the game. Get in there and get the job done >:)
