Hi everyone

One of the reasons Successor is a live-action with full pause is that we want battles to be immersive, intense, and wildly entertaining to play and watch and while we are still a long way from that goal we have started to pay attention to the details with this small update and we can't wait to improve it even more.

Procedural Framework

Behind the scene, we are in the progress of converting everything into a procedural framework that will make it possible to shift the gameplay into a more replayable rogue-lite experience. Needless to say, we can't wait to show you the new upgraded version, but you have to wait a bit more.

Playtesting

We will be opening up the playtesting build for a few hours today, tomorrow, and maybe Sunday allowing you to come in and try our current Alpha version and hopefully provide us with some feedback on what you think so far.
