We are very close to the game's release date. That's why I wanted to make this post to clarify some important issues.
(1) The game may have bugs. I believe there are no fatal issues that would ruin the entire game, but there are undoubtedly some minor errors that I will be fixing over time. Above all, I ask for a little patience as I try to perfect this as much as possible.
(2) This game is not very well optimized for computers from before 2016. I tested it on a 2012 laptop and a 2014 desktop PC, and it didn't work correctly on either. Additionally, it requires Windows 10. I'm truly sorry, but for now, this game will not run well on older machines. I will work on improving my coding.
(3) Initially, the game will only be available for Windows, but I assume it will eventually be available for other devices. The same goes for Steam Deck compatibility or controllers like joysticks. At some point, I'll do my best to solve these issues because I want the game to reach more people. I am very interested in making it accessible to all types of users.
(4) I want the game to be simple but offer more variety. So I'll focus my creativity on designing extra levels with new things. Expect the first updates to be all about new content. I love the idea of even reaching 500 available levels. I will work hard to develop mechanics that make the game continuously fun. Expect the first patch (v1.1) to add 36 new levels for Speedrun mode.
(5) The only translation I have thoroughly reviewed besides my native language (Spanish) is English. I cannot promise the other translations will be accurate, especially grammatically. I'm very sorry, but I promise I will try to invest time and money to ensure that someday all translations will be fully suitable.
(6) This is the only game I plan to make. At least for now, my plans are to focus all my efforts on this. So, honestly, all my work will be aimed at creating a polished product. I want this to be a serious project, not something abandoned or half-done. My goal today is to feel satisfied. Even when the game is out of early access, I will continue working on it. I care deeply about expanding it as much as I can. I want to build something important.
(7) I don't want the game to be expensive. I plan to slightly increase the price over the months with new updates packed with content, but it's definitely not in my plans to make it less accessible due to a high cost. The price will remain in the standard range for indie games. There will be NO DLCs, and NO microtransactions. In summary: you will only pay ONCE for this game.
(*) This game is the most important thing to me right now. It's all I think about all the time. Above all, remember that I am developing everything by myself. I believe that, over time, we will see a beautiful evolution in every aspect. I hope you can join me and understand the situation. While being an indie developer is tough, it also gives me the freedom to do whatever I want. I will take advantage of this freedom and make this game huge.

Im very excited. I have already completed 90% of the game. I just need to fix some bugs and polish a few levels. I also need to finish the soundtrack. Luckily, I completed visual novel design, which took me over a month of work. I loved making it, but it was certainly very tough and frustrating at times.
Let me give you a heads-up: there will be many updates. ALL FREE. I wont release any DLCs, and I dont plan to work on sequels or other games. I just want to focus on adding more content. Currently, Im working 100% alone, and I also have a part-time job that slows down the development. Sometimes real life tries to pull me away from all this virtual work Im doing, but I never give up, and Im finally starting to see the rewards of putting effort into creating something from scratch: Almohadn: escape from the basement IS ABOUT TO BE RELEASED.
Maybe the first month after release Ill prefer to rest (it's been a few exhausting months) and focus on promoting the game to expand its visibility. But I already have a plan for what Ill do next. Its not exactly a roadmap, but
What do I plan to do with each update? Lets see...
Right now, in the mode selector, only 2 sections are available: story and speedrun mode. Ive already finished developing the story.
First, Ill be working on creating new mechanics and regular enemies. Then, Ill start designing new original extra levels for the speedrun mode.
The other modes are surprises. But I guess you can imagine what theyre about... with each major patch, Ill unlock a new mode, and over the months Ill be adding content to each one. Ill take my time, but I promise to give it my all. As soon as I feel the game is complete, we will move out of "early access." Even when the game is "finished" I will keep creating new content. Stopping is not in my plans because Im only focused on this project, and Id like to perfect it and make it huge.
Thank you for being interested in this game. I hope we can all have a lot of fun!
Here are some images!
This is the main menu:
This is how the level selector looks in speedrun mode (each page has 18 levels):
I managed to create a pretty minimalist pause menu:
I changed the text box in the visual novel (black and white with transparency):
EXTRA:
I improved store images.
Ive been working on achievements (I think there will be more than 200).
For now... there are only 100 because Steam limits the number for new games.
I will prepare 3 trailers to present the game in different ways, and when the official release happens, Ill make a new post.
See you at the Early Access launch!

Not much time left! Finally, Almohadn: escape from the basement is about to be published.
The first aspect I finished in the game was the gameplay and the levels. Recently, I have been focusing on the interface. Now I just need to finish the visual novel graphics. Everything else is done!
My plan is to release version 1.0.0 as an Early Access version.
FIRST VERSION ALREADY HAS FULL 100% CAMPAIGN MODE! I will continue updating the game over the coming weeks. My goal is to create more content and polish some details:
- Fix bugs
- Improve translations
- More extra levels for speedrun mode
- More game modes to increase replayability with unique levels
- New platforms
- New character mechanics
- More special levels
- Normal enemies and... BOSSES!
- Ill add more achievements once Steam allows me to

I have a lot more to share, but Ill do that in future posts. Ill keep working until the game is close to release and then Ill make more announcements. I need to focus all my energy on finishing the first part of this project. In a few weeks Ill publish some extra images and teasers so you can start discovering more about the game.
