We are proud and excited to announce that Moonrise is now on Steam’s Early Access list. The early feedback has been amazing! Thank you to all our beta testers, streamers, YouTubers, guide writers, and fan art creators for joining the fun.
All the bundle details went up last week, as our regulars know, but to prepare for today, we (working with some amazing media friends) gave away nearly four thousand access keys before the weekend. If you got in that way, you can still get the bundles from the in-game store if you want, but no matter what you decide, you can rest assured there won’t be any server wipes.
If you’ve been following our progress, you may be interested in the patch notes that go with this version of the game. The biggest change is probably that dungeons no longer require tickets. Now, entry costs gold. (The ticket concept was one of the only timer-related things in the game, so that’s pretty huge in terms of reducing the barriers to entry.)
Let’s see, what else. One of the most common questions we’re getting is “what happened to mobile?” We have not forgotten mobile, not by a long shot! But it’s really, really fast and easy to patch Steam in response to feedback and testing. We can go from idea to feature in hours, not months. So we’ll take everything we learn from Early Access, and get it into all versions of the game. Once we’re synced up, you’ll be able to play cross-platform from one account.
But that is the future! And right now, we’ve taken a great big step towards that future.
