Read about the steps we took to make it feel more impactful

We showcased our game at 2 gaming events (even Deadpool played it).

People managed to tear it apart but that's just what we needed. Coming up soon: playtesting with our Discord community (https://discord.gg/RVZ2FZmabT)

From time to time you need to take a look back and see how far you've come. This is our progress in 1 year.

Can't wait to see where this game takes us in the next year.
