Hello! We are delighted that we made the cut and can participate in this years LudoNarraCon, the biggest online festival focused on games with ambitious narratives. It will run on Steam from April 23rd to April 26th! First of all, it means we will have a PLAYABLE DEMO! In it, you will go through the very beginning of the game, arriving in our village and starting your survey in the local schoolhouse. The demo will include 4 playable characters as well as the main map, and other scenes for you to try!
If you decide to give it a go, please give us feedback - you can use our Twitter, Discord, or E-mail. We are eager to finally show you the first parts of our game! Streams, QAs, behind-the-scenes! LudoNarraCon is about much more than that, including talks and of course dev live streams. You can find the full schedule here, but with Svoboda 1945: Liberation, we have prepared 4 streams, one for each festival day, covering everything from our approach to history to a behind-the-scenes look at our life as an indie studio making serious games. Just a note: we list the streams in CET time, you can easily convert them to your in Google by searching for "time CET" (e.g. querying "9:30 CET") and it should automatically convert to your local time!
