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...
Loading...Just another day in the Abbey🍻⛪ This time moving equipment around 💪 Although WIP, it still looks lively! And our original 🎶 score is just 🔥
Ale Abbey's brewers guard their beer till the next town...? Or try to sneak another sip to "test the fruits of their labor"?🍻⛪🤭
A few hops here and there, a stronger yeast, and maybe - wait - DEFINITELY a more roasted malt... What about coffee beans for color & flavor?!🍻⛪
Ale Abbey's Recipe crafting system looks so good, we're daydreaming 🤩
The Fellowship of the Ale.... not out there for a quest, but rather to hand you a few! When they show up at Ale Abbey's gates lend them your ear and ale, the rewards coming your way will be worth it🍻⛪
1"We should have reached Ale Abbey already... Where was that map again?!"🧐🍻⛪
Those Pilgrims are going places... maybe Ale Abbey's gates are next?🍻⛪ Make sure you got a few brews ready to accommodate them in their long travels! 🤩🙌
WIP characters for Ale Abbey, the Pilgrims! 🍻⛪This bunch of happy peeps will randomly visit your Monastery, ask for your help (or beer), and reward you accordingly before they set out again... 🐎
Working on the room that will offer Ale Abbey's Monks and Nuns some respite from the "hardships" of brewing beer all day... oh, the humanity!😌🍻⛪
Here's some #WIP from... the Meditation Room🤩
Got some new Monk and Nun models dropping in Ale Abbey🙌 Still #WIP but this is the third wave of characters we're testing and we can't wait to see some of these mugs prance around the Monastery!🍻⛪
🪔Burning the midnight oil is one thing... actually animating the 🔥 is another!
In other words, we're working on that one piece of animation that will bring so much value to the zen scenes of Ale Abbey! 🍻⛪
