Hey guys!
50 000 players
I just wanted to take a minute to thank each and every one of you who've took the time to try out the demo, got the game, played through it, shared it with your friends. It's with deep gratitude that I'm announcing today that we've officially sold 50 000 copies of Horripilant! Never in my wildest dreams would I ever imagine to achieve this level of success, on my first commercial title, in a month, no less!
Release has been a whirlwind for me, focused on patching things quickly, making a bunch of critical changes, answering all the feedback, answering all the e-mails, doing community management, keeping up with streamers, it's been incredibly exhausting and overwhelming, but also incredibly rewarding to see this game blow up like it did. This unexpected success has given me financial security for the upcoming years and it's going to let me keep on creating for a little while. For that, I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who's given a shot at the game and enjoyed the experience!
Next update?
I'm still working on a small patch to fix some more bugs, add some QOL and more. Full Czech support is coming soon with the next patch!
New Content?
While the game is considered feature-complete, we might want to do something fun in the future like a NG+ with some more lore to uncover..? Who knows... (No promises, but it's something that'd be cool to do and that I'm strongly thinking about!)
Ports?
We're also looking at porting to consoles and mobile, no exact timelines yet, but keep an eye out for those!
Merch?
We're looking at doing cool merch in the near future, shirts, soundtrack and whatnot, we'll talk about it more once that's ready to go!
Soundtrack?
The full soundtrack is still being worked on by Marl, and will be included in our Supporter Pack once it does come out. We're also looking at physical releases! Exciting! If you want a few extra goodies and customization options, feel free to pick the Supporter Pack up!
Thanks again to everyone who's bought and played the game, means the absolute world to me that people are enjoying my silly little video game!
