Developer Notes
This build is intentionally short. My main goal right now was to figure out the core development pipeline and to show you the foundation of the game. It’s still raw, not all characters have been introduced, and the plot is just starting to unfold, but I really wanted to get this into your hands! I will be refining every detail and packing it with story content as we go forward.
