  Next Game: Human Hunter

  It's official! My next game is in the works!BUT I have some clarifications I will get to later in this message. What is Human Hunter? It's a game where you and your friend group survive in a dark dystopian forest. One friend is assigned the Hunter role, while Runners have to survive and craft various things (like a survival game) The Hunters goal is to hunt you down and eliminate you! No estimated release date but I'm hoping for sometime this year Now for those Hamster Hunter questions. Yes development will continue, Recent development has been slow due to me working on porting it to mobile and console. So sadly we haven't seen many Steam updates for content on the game. Development will slow down, unlikely to come to a stop. I will continue development on it for as long as I can sustain. As for now! Go ahead and Wishlist Human Hunter for a chance to join the playtest.
