Hi, I'm Alan and I'm so excited for you to play Wildwood!
I'm a solo indie developer. I originally launched a prototype version of Wildwood on mobile in 2019 and decided to take the next step and make it a full game.
I'm expanding the original gameplay, adding new mechanics, new enemies, and an entirely new progression system. I'm also working on some end-game content for anyone who wants even more challenge.
Please wishlist, and stay tuned for more!
