Greetings, Kickstarter backers! It’s time for another update! Geneforge 2 - Infestation is still being written, and solid progress is being made.
The game world is 3/4 done. We’ve begun an intense period of in-house testing and finishing all those annoying fiddly bits we’ve put off finishing. Then we’ll hand the game over to a small, elite crew of Macintosh testers to begin banging the game into shape for real. Our freelance artists have made a bunch of great art, and everything is on schedule.
Most of the backer-designed elements are in the game. This took quite a while, but we’re very happy with the results. The world of the Shapers is starting to feel a lot more developed. There’s more in there about their history, their lore, and their ways. The whole game setting, little by little, is starting to come into focus in a way I find very satisfying. Thanks to everyone for your great ideas! They’re making a better game.
Over the next few weeks, we’re going to make the announcement trailer and the Steam page. Then the long process of begging for wishlists can begin.
