Geneforge 2 - Infestation Kickstarter, December Update #6
Happy Holidays from Spiderweb Software! Before a brief end-of-year rest, we wanted to let you know what has been going on with Geneforge 2 - Infestation. We have some great news.
The game is done, for both Windows and Mac! Almost. There are a handful of unfinished bits of code and a couple pieces of art yet to be completed. Plus tons of testing. However, the game world is done. It is possible to play through the entire storyline. The first group of Beta Testers have played through every game path several times. Barring a considerable disaster, the game can ship in March!
This is always a big milestone. We finally get to switch gears from creation to distribution. Now we start configuring store pages, making installers, going hard on PR, tweaking game balance, fixing bugs, and completing the million steps to get a game out into the world.
But if you were worried that this Kickstarter might not make a game exist, worry no more! A game exists!
Now, at last, we can get serious about the details ...
Kickstarter Backer Surveys
At the beginning of January, we will send out the Kickstarter surveys. You'll need to give your email address for game keys and your physical address for physical rewards. Higher-tier backers can say how they want to be listed in the credits.
Watch for this at the beginning of January. If you haven't heard from us, check your spam filter.
Backer Beta Testing
Backers who can beta test the game should get a message from Kickstarter in mid-January. You'll get a bunch of time for your feedback to be incorporated.
And that is our update. Check out some of our new creation art below. We post new screenshots regularly on Twitter/X. If you wishlist us on Steam, it is very helpful for getting visibility. See you next year!
