Hello! Thank you so much everyone! Early access has been a huge success for me so I've been able to start commissioning some upgrades to improve the look of the game and expand to new regions as well. I've already started working hard with some wonderful artists and translators to help meet the early access goals. Good progress is being made <333. While all that has been going on I'm still working on the final platforming challenge and picking away at whatever else I can find :D.

Hey all! The campaign is finished and ready for Early Access! My six month plan for EA is to open up the full campaign for players to gather feedback as well as to gather funding and data for upgraded sprites and translations. I also have a hidden secret level that will be under construction for a few weeks during early EA. Additionally, I've pushed an update with maaany bugfixes and a few new features!

Gameplay

• Enemies will now flinch! This was always in the game and I never noticed it was broken until a couple weeks ago. :D.

Language Support prep

• I've set up the game to support other languages in the future.
• I'll be giving priority to languages based on engagement.
• English is still the only language currently supported <3.

Hey all! I'll be playing through the demo of Amata on twitch Weds, June 12th from 4pm - 8pm EST. I'll be starting a fresh play through of the demo every hour on the hour with some special previews of EA content. Between each play through I'll be taking questions and stressing systems. I'll be streaming pretty much all week as well! Hope to see you there <3!

Next fest stream!
