[b][i][h1]The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly[/h1][/i][/b] A few things happened just before launch that have led to a delay. Here are the steps I'm taking to resolve the issues and release in the coming week. [h2][i]The Bad[/i][/h2] I'm starting with the bad news: the game launch has been delayed from October 31st. Due to issues with the content survey, the game was blocked in certain parts of the world. I've been working with Steam to resolve this and ensure everything is ready for a smooth launch. [h2][i]The Ugly[/i][/h2] I'm not exactly sure of the exact launch date yet, but I can confirm it will be in the first week of November. Thanks for sticking with us, and I apologize for the inconvenience. [h2][i]The Good[/i][/h2] This is the best part of the update! The game is now ready for its Early Access launch! I also want to highlight an important feature that will be available on launch day: [i][b][h3]Demo players and full-version players can play together on the Whispering Pines Wilderness map. Demo users have access to all features, but they are limited to that map only. [/h3][/b][/i] All features are fully functional, and after some closed testing, I can confirm that the new map is incredibly fun! Thank you all for your patience and support as I work to bring this game to life. I'm excited for you to experience everything I've put into the Early Access launch, especially the Whispering Pines Wilderness map that allows both demo and full-version players to team up and explore together. I can’t wait to hear your feedback and see you in-game soon. Stay tuned for the official launch date and get ready for an unforgettable adventure!
