As we mentioned, back in January, our plan was to work on a <b>Vertical Slice<\/b> aaaand\u2026 it\u2019s <b>mostly done<\/b>! A lot of small, missing features have been implement, lots of maps created and polished, a good bunch of cutscenes scripted, two boss enemies wrapped up, and one dungeon\u2026 mostly finished. We\u2019re currently at a point where about the first 1-2 hours of the game are almost fully playable.<\/p>\n<p>It may not sound like much, but getting to that point is a big milestone for us! Having all the relevant systems together should allow us to slowly pick up the pace and develop content faster.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7552\" src=\"http:\/\/www.radicalfishgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/terra-combat-1.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"220\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>When can I play?!<\/h2>\n<p>There is still no public release for now, sorry.<\/p>\n<p>As you might have heard, narrative-focused Action-RPGs are a beast to develop. Still, we\u2019re getting close to something: a <b>public demo<\/b>, which will be similar to the vertical slice we\u2019re still working on. The current plan is to release that one in <b>Early 2025<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>Following that, we might go a similar route as we did with CrossCode: <b>An Early Access release in late 2025<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>Early Access is important for us for two reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We can get continuous feedback from a larger crowd of players, which ultimately allows us to create a better game<\/li>\n<li>It makes a long development time financially feasible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the end, it was to a large part thanks to Early Access that CrossCode ended up being the game it is today. Of course, we hope that Early Access for Alabaster Dawn won\u2019t go on quite as long, as it did for CrossCode.<\/p>\n<p>So that\u2019s when you\u2019ll be able to play Alabaster Dawn!
