Hey everyone, as my first post on Steam, I want to thank you deeply for your time reading this, and showing interest in AVROPOLIS.
I've been using Steam ever since it first came out, and being on the other side writing a post as a developer is such an honor, and I'm very excited to have this privilege.
As a solo developer, it's always a tough journey making a game, especially with a limited budget and other responsibilities such as being a father of 3 (2 of which are cats).
I'm aiming at writing some posts regarding the origin and development of the game, during these last 4 years.
Here's a sneak peak at all the material I wrote, and maintained over time for the game - yes, it's all on paper!
CLOSED BETA INCOMING!
I'm also in the process of getting ready to start a closed beta round, that could potentially get you a free copy of the game, if I believe your contributions are strong, and your feedback solid, as this is what matters most, to ensure the game starts in its best shape possible before going public.
If you are interested, fill This Form in order to sign up, and I'll let you know if there's availability for each round, or queue up to the next round. More info will follow once everything is set up.
I cannot guarantee every single person will be able to participate, but I'll try my best to make everyone happy.
PS: I'm also in the process of updating the Steam page, as I've commissioned an artist to revamp the graphical assets, to give it the love it deserves.
The trailer will be updated as well, as one of the levels showcased has been revamped with final assets.
Here's a little before/after sneak peek:
If you haven't already, please consider wishlisting the game so that you'll be notified of announcements, changes, major events, and when the game launches. Such a small action can have a great impact on the visibility of the game!
If you have any questions, or suggestions, please feel free to leave a comment!
Looking forward to collaborating with you, and show you more!
