Hello everyone!

Weve just closed the public playtest, and we want to thank all of you who joined and helped us improve the game. Your feedback made a big difference, and we now believe the game is ready for the next step:

Early Access is NOW released!

-10% launch discount

Of course, this is just the beginning. Well keep building and improving the game, focusing on the features you request the most. If you continue playing in Early Access, wed really appreciate it if you could leave us a review (we\'d appreciate if it were a Recommend review, but Not-Recommend ones are appreciated too (with a tear in the eye and a heavy heart )). Namely, we recently found out that the algorithm boosts games with more reviews, and doesnt really show the game anywhere until it has at least 10 reviews, so those first ones are extra important (sounds obvious but here we are).

Thank you all again for your support, and most importantly, have fun!

Here are some of the key improvements you helped us make during the playtesting phase:

• AI is much smarter and AI moves are nicely animated

  [/*]

• Significant tutorial changes. Tutorial is not a list of messages displayed on your first game, but a separate game you can start at any time from the main menu. This change helped us explain relevant in-game situations more easily. Also, tutorial should generally look more nicely now - steps should flow more smoothly, added some icons, arrows, etc.

• Scoring cards display the number of ribbons you have earned so far and how many points the next ribbon will earn. While creating a painting, scoring cards display newly earned ribbons with an animation.

  [/*]

• Scoring cards can be chosen in main menu, when creating a game.

  [/*]

• New interaction while creating a painting: click-to-add and click-to-remove Art Card from Painting

  [/*]

• Turn is auto-ended when painting is finished. Turn can be auto-ended when taking an Art Card. This option can be turned on-off when taking a card or in Main Menu/Options

• Transparent card backgrounds (instead of white)

  [/*]

• Inspiration tokens for each player are displayed in the top bar

  [/*]

• The cost of taking a card is displayed on the main gameplay screen below each card

  [/*]

• Improved design of silver ribbons so that symbols on them dont get easily mixed up with other symbols

  [/*]

• Explanation is displayed when trying to take card without having enough inspiration tokens

  [/*]

• Many many many more small design tweaks, added animations, bugs fixed and improvements made
