Community Engagement!

When you buy a Treon Games Early Access game, you are not only getting chance to play before release, but a chance to share ideas and shape the game as it evolves.

Tormunda - Settlements Developer: User engagement was very important when I developed business software and now that I am designing games, community engagement is key.

Here are just some of the Community Requests added to date.
