I'm really pleased to be able to launch the game on Steam Early Access today, after many hours (literally thousands!) of learning, designing, recording, coding, it's finally in a state ready for people to play! We currently have a good selection of items available in the shops, 9 potential visitors, 2 animal types for hunting and 1 key to unlock a castle door. All of these things will increase with regular content updates. Several castle doors and the clothing boutique will remain locked for now, but you will be able to complete all 4 of the king's objectives, fight the boss battle and see the first 'end game' sequence. I have decided to launch on Early Access so that I can get your feedback on what you think of the game in its current state, and what content and features you would like to see in future updates. Please get in touch with any feedback or if you encounter any issues, I'll do my best to get back to you and make regular edits/improvements through updates. I hope you enjoy the game, thanks for playing! Little Ricebowl
