Early Access, Gamescom and weekly progress


Early Access

For anyone that might have missed it, we just launched our Steam Early Access yesterday! That marks another big milestone in the development of Fell Seal!
We’ve been truly amazed by the high quality of feedback we’ve gotten so far from our Beta Backers, and we’re hoping the Early Access will open the doors to even more feedback from the community, to help us make sure Fell Seal is the amazing game it deserves to be.

You can give our Steam Page a look right here.

We’re hoping to start directing all feedback and comments to our Steam forum so it’s all grouped in one convenient location!

Gamescom

Next, we’d like to remind everyone that we’ll be at Gamescom 2018 in the 1C Publishing section come August 21th! If you’re in the area, do come and check up on us! There will be goodies and our newest boss fight. Good times!

Progress Report

We spent most of the week preparing for our Early Access launch, by adding polish to the game and fixing last minute bugs. It’s been a very busy week indeed!

On the programming side, other than getting everything ready for the EA, I’ve wrapped up our next story map events and fixed a few issues that were found from thoroughly testing our worm boss battle. That one is now truly and fully finished at last (it took at least a full week to get the custom AI, custom abilities and special visuals just right!).
Here’s what it looks like:

Otherwise, our artist has been working mostly on polish as well, but we do have a few new spells to show this week, mostly focusing on weapon skills:

We most likely won’t be putting up an update next week as we’ll be at Gamescom, but we’ll gather some pictures of the events for the update after that!

Thanks again for the support!

We stealthily updated our build early this week. It fixes some Linux issues with our intro movie and brings the game to parity with its paid version in terms of balance, abilities, localization and a smaller build size. As for our progress report...

This week we finished all localization for Release and we finished all our cutscenes saving for our second ending...

This week, we've been working mainly on adding new sound effects to the game and integrating fixes from QA's feedback on our console builds...

We had a huge balance update this week, with over a 100 different changes to various aspects, like passives, counters, class growths, etc...

We redid most of the UI visuals for the game this week. It looks much slicker now! We'll prepare another free demo build with all the changes soon, but in the meantime...

This week we've been focusing on creating all cutscenes content for the game, as well as toning down the game's difficulty through a new Difficulty Setting to control AI use of the Revive...

We updated our Gamejolt build this week. It has a lot of balance tweaks and the videos have been updated for higher compatibility. Finally, anyone that has been having issue entering the Store or Menus, this is fixed too.

Fell Seal's release date has finally been announced: April 30th. The game is now feature complete, with the only things left to work on bug fixes and polish until release.

This week, we are finally done with all story content and optional content (save for our special secret optional dungeon...)!

We're almost done with the core content of the game, but still a lot of optional content left to add...
