Alpha 2 (complete)
Completed in February-March 2023, this was the second private playtest for holders of our Genesis Collection.
Same goals as alpha 1 with added cards and characters.
Learned a lot about user behavior around some key systems, and ended up removing an early game mechanic known as “Stances”.

Also known as the Pioneer Event and Fungi Festival.
Featured the release of all new playable characters as well as equipment and the Battle Pass progression system.
Also featured dramatically reworked battle systems, improved UI and UX, new game screens such as character select, and a totally refactored game client that was much more performant.
Completed in H2 2023.
