Excited to finally release the playtest here on Steam. I have been working hard to get to the point I was comfortable releasing this thing into the wild and yeah I finally got here. I hope everyone can enjoy the game I put a lot of effort into making it so most computers can run it. Please if you have any feedback or you encounter any bugs that make the game unplayable for you leave your feedback in the Discord.
