Hello, Operators.

The Administration reports: development has entered the final stretch. Release date announcement is imminent. We are a two-dev indie team. Your participation matters. Extra eyes expose what ours miss. Your reports help us lock down stability, surface edge cases, and tune pacing, difficulty, and performance. Every clear ticket shortens the road to launch.

Closed playtest requests are now open on Discord.

Entry condition: commit to actionable feedback in the designated channels. Include build number, steps to reproduce, expected versus actual result, and system specs. Screenshots or short video help. Apply via Discord. Stand by for the date announcement. Proceed. The descent is about to begin. See you very soon. —The Administration
