Hi everyone,
Who joins a cult?
It's been a little longer than I prefer since my last post here, but I wanted to show up with something new and exciting for you to take a look at.
We just debuted a brand new trailer as part of the Kinda Funny Games Showcase event they held on Twitch. So cue the video:

With this trailer we wanted to show off some of the people you will find and talk to inside Freedom Town. In this trailer you'll meet KeeAnne, Charles, Theresa, and Alex and hear in their own words why they joined. Why did they came to Freedom Town and what they think of it now that maybe it's not what they dreamed it would be?
And of course, when you meet these people in the actual game, you'll get to decide for yourself. Do you believe them? Do you trust them? Do you want to help them? Can you get them to help you? And Alex is your nephew - he's why you go Freedom Town in the first place. You need to decide if you're going to make him leave, even if he may want to stay.
In terms of development, as I mentioned in my last post, we launched our alpha back in September (and you can read more about that here). Based on feedback from the alpha and from a bunch of trusted people we had playtest the game, we have a list of polish and features we want to get into the game to make it as strong as possible for its launch early next year. In particular, we want to make sure the game has lots of reasons for you to go back and replay it, from difficulty levels to new stuff to discover as you keep exploring the depths of Freedom Town. So that's what we're focused on in December and January. When we're not busy making some cool new trailers.
As always, let us know if you have any questions or just what you thought of the new trailer! Getting feedback from people on this forum (as well as trade shows, the alpha, etc) has had a huge part in getting the game to where it is now. And for that I am very thankful.
