  Two-Year Kickstarter Anniversary!

  NEW TRAILER We've uploaded a new trailer as a part of our TWO Year Celebration of the Kickstarter Campaign. Enjoy! We also posted our last update so anyone could publicly view it (as in, more can view it than just Backers of the Kickstarter campaign); one thing of note - that we've commented on in updates but not too much otherwise - was that due to the Kickstarter success, more care and effort will consequently be put into making Crowsworn the best as it can be (in contrast to if the campaign had only hit the initial funding goal). Here is a snippet from Tuesday's update: "In some of the previous updates we discussed that the game is going to be taking longer to finish than the initially planned for December 2023 release date. We shed some light on the reasons for this in the previous updates, but for posterity we'll discuss it again. The delayed release is primarily a result of raising more than 10x the amount of funds we had initially planned for. This basically means need to make a game that is 10x bigger / better than what we initially planned for." Don't get hung up on the "10x" term in a literal sense; essentially, the team wants to make sure that Crowsworn rises to meet the now larger expectations of our supporters, so we're going to take our time and make it as great as it can be, rather than try to meet the original estimated fulfillment date. Cheers everyone!
