Hey everyone, we're super excited to share 3 big pieces of news with you!
First up, in preparation for the demo launch, we've kicked off a new playtest today!
The King’s Wood Playtest is much bigger than the previous combat playtest. It’s basically the first steps on your journey and in the broader world of A Short Quest. You’ll fight bandits, explore the King’s Wood, meet NPCs, cook recipes, loot weapons, wield magic, level up specializations, and more.
Next up, we were featured at the Future Games Show at Gamescom. Check it out:
To access the playtest, just click the link on the Steam page and you’ll automatically get in. The most important part to us is getting your feedback! The best way to do that is to join our Discord server and fill out the playtest survey.
And finally, we’ve signed on with a publisher. We’re working with Mad Mushroom to make A Short Quest as good as it can be and promote it to as wide an audience as possible.
What’s next? After this playtest we’ll be working on a public demo. And after that, we’re planning to launch the game (1.0, not Early Access), in 2027.
Thank you all for your support so far, we can’t wait to hear what you think about the new playtest!
