As I write this we are finishing our last day of 2022. It’s been a full year with a much work going into the game. The team is up to 9 full time people now. The game is showing the benefit of everyone working.

We plan to release the game to Early Access April 2023.

I want to share a few of the milestones we’re working towards.

Dec 23 2022 Preview QA of Build 14

We put a build up on the Beta branch for those who have bought into the Pre-Alpha.

Password for the Beta branch is “Build14Build14”

Feb 6-13 2023 Next Fest

We are launching a demo of the game into Next Fest to give people a chance to taste Archmage Rises. A lot of work is going into this for submission late Jan.

There will be live broadcasts of us developers playing the game during that week.

We are releasing a preview of this demo build on the beta branch today for those interested in helping with QA.

April 2023 Early Access

From Feb to April we will be polishing the game and getting it ready for public Early Access. That is our Alpha. The Alpha won’t have all the features we’ve promised over the years, but many of the core ones. The rest will come during the Early Access period.
