I honestly think this will be a great game. I am willing to do some game testing for you if you need it.
Hey, your game sounds awesome! I’d recommend doing the following to turn it into a bigger success on Game Jolt!
1. Post about your game, news and updates in as many communities as it makes sense! Communities like Game Dev or Arts n Crafts will get your posts in front of thousands of users! Find more communities here: https://gamejolt.com/communities.
2. Write a bio on your profile. A complete profile always looks more legitimate in the eyes of the community. This is a great place to add in your website or other social channels.
3. Post and update your followers frequently to stay on their radar!
pretty good game, had fun making some good ale.
I might have also accidentally ruined a wedding by forgetting about the mission
whoops....
If you need testers, here I am. I think it could be an unbelievable game. Can't wait to play it!
Hello. Great project, you did well. If you need a voice actor for this project or any of your next projects, I really want to work with you. I hope that everything will work out
A Monastery Brewery tycoon. Craft recipes, brew beer, perfect your Monks' skills, bribe the local lords, feed the poor, and discover the Abbot's dark (or not-so-dark) past.

Gameplay
Ale Abbey is a tycoon indie game developed under the premise of being stress-free and with almost no punishing gameplay mechanics. We want the player to enjoy building their Monastery up and evolving its Monks and Nuns. You will need to find and purchase the best materials, craft recipes and brew your ale, care for the local populace, and tend to the "requests" of the Lords and Bandits of the area. All that to make the tastiest of ale and increase the Abbey's renown!
Brewing
Made by a team that appreciates and respects beer and crafting it, Ale Abbey is a pixelated wink to the ones that not only kept the craft alive but also perfected it through harder and darker times.
Accurate ingredients, realistic practices, demanding audiences (!), and a bunch of trusty Monks and Nuns ready to brew!
Game Modes
Ale Abbey will come with a campaign and sandbox mode.
The campaign will span over a period of about 100-120 years, divided into 4 terms that will run under 4 different Abbots and Abbesses. Each term will carry over bonuses to the next, based on the retiring Abbot's/Abbess' background and the player's choices throughout that term.
The Sandbox mode will tend to those who wish to hone their tycoon/managerial skills without having to worry about the timeline or the backstories found in the campaign mode. Everything else will still be there; quests, recipe creation, brewing, slightly inebriated Monks...
So many things to research, and so little time🧐thankfully Ale Abbey's Laboratorium creates the best of spaces for uninterrupted studying about life, beer, and everything!🍻⛪
We've been told time flies when you're brewing in Ale Abbey🍻⛪ Keep focusing on that😉 there'll be ways to flaunt your monastery's progress over time with these evolving facades #WIP
How the last couple of weeks have felt with us (right) listening to all the feedback we received after launching Ale Abbey's demo🍻⛪ (which you can still enjoy btw😉)
Keep it coming!!
Amazing Next Fest results come with amazing feedback... And we hear you! Based on player feedback, we will be testing non-pixelated fonts in Ale Abbey for the sake of readability🍻⛪ Looks appropriate so far 👀

A quick screenshot directly from Ale Abbey's Brewery... well it's scene-based UI, that is🍻⛪ And you bet that smile says it all!😉
They could be brewing instead, but then Brother Marcus would never learn how to boil a wort on his own🍻⛪ And they wouldn't be having a much-needed "break"😉
Work in moderation, play in moderation!🧐 As Ale Abbey’s Custodians, your brewlings ensure the monastery’s order and cleanliness, but that doesn’t mean they can't enjoy the perks of being a brewer! 🍻⛪
Loading...One small bang for the Abbey's Laymen, one giant leap in Ale Abbey's development!🍻⛪ Finally going through our SFX period and we're implementing pleasant and unpleasant sounds alike🤭
