Offsprings of the first men welcome back to another #FeatureFriday.
Another week has passed - we've been polishing TFM as much as possible and getting ready for our Early Access release! Steam Playtest continues with TFM's Discord Champions, and since we are entering the final weeks before the release, this may be your chance to help us test the game.
On the other hand, we continue working on the announcement video and choosing a release date; keep an eye out for the new video to mark your calendars for the exact date!
