As our early access release approaches fast, the time has come to release our first Demo beta. For the very first time we make accessible to public the Campaign and Arcade mode, both with 5 maps (including the Workbench map where all the units and towers can be tested).

The first chapter of the campaign will allow you to conquer up to 5 territories, or play through 25 turns, including all the dialogs and characters of the full game. The arcade mode lets you play at different difficulties level the 5 maps, recording your statistics as well.

The demo saves are compatible with the full game build, for now only accessible through our Discord channel

It's still in beta of course, you wouln't believe the amount of incredibly well hidden bugs we find thanks to our testers (led by the incredible talent of Laurie, the best bug hunter we ever met). The game features an integrated feedback system you can use to provide us bug reports and/or feedback about your experience, and we are checking that daily.

Now, without further ado, grab your crossbows, the enemy's invading! (Ah by the way, small quiz. Do you recognize the voice in the Campaign intro? ;) )

H, Lead Dev

Collecting Trophies in Ale Abbey is not an easy task🍻⛪ But once you get them by proving yourself in the surrounding markets they buff your monastery in peculiar ways Plus, they look really cute in their Cabinet!

A bit of summary of stuff we made in the last month

Brewers buzzing around Ale Abbey will make it look like a living, breathing organism🍻⛪ And any building that is alive, should come with visible upgrades Here's a couple of different ranks of the Abbey proper.

How do we keep Research upgrades and unlockables in Ale Abbey interesting?🍻⛪ Well, you can't have research without categories and prerequisites to keep things spicy right?😉

#indiegame #screenshotsaturday #pixelart

We worked on some in-game icons for Ale Abbey's Research tab🍻⛪ Which one got your attention and what do you think it unlocks once researched?!😉
