How are you enjoying the demo, Raiders?
First of all, we want to thank everyone who has taken the time to play Raiders Rise.
Every match you play, every comment you leave, and every suggestion you share reaches our team and helps us improve the game.
❤️ Thank You for Helping Us Build Raiders Rise
As an indie studio, your feedback is one of our most valuable tools when making decisions about the game's development.
⚡ Fewer Levels, Faster Matches
If you've played recently, you've probably already noticed one of the biggest changes we've introduced.
👀 We've Reduced the Number of Levels Before the Final Stage
Previously, teams had to progress through:
💎 5 different levels.
💎 1 crystal in each level.
Before reaching the final phase.
Now, we've streamlined the experience to:
💎 Just 3 levels before the final showdown
🎯 Why Did We Make This Change?
This decision was directly influenced by community feedback.
Our goal is to make matches:
⚡ Faster-paced.
🎮 More dynamic.
⚔️ Better balanced between teams.
This adjustment is also designed with the future mobile version of Raiders Rise in mind, where match length and pacing become even more important.
🧪 We're Still Testing and Improving
That said...
🚧 This Change Is Not Final
We're using the demo and Steam Next Fest as an opportunity to test this new structure with the community and evaluate how it impacts the overall gameplay experience.
That's why your feedback remains so important.
We'd love to know:
Do you enjoy the faster match flow?
Did you prefer the previous system?
What would you improve?
