Let's Chat / What's Next?

0.1.5 rounds out our new vision for the narrative side of the game. Mechanically, all of the pieces are in place, and we'll be focusing on tactical combat going forward. Next up are setting changes and another round of playtests! Join the Mirage Company Discord if you're curious about those, or what the day-to-day looks like for the devs.

We're outlining our plans to round out 2022 and start the next. 0.2 is coming, and so is the Miragecast. We can't tell you much about it yet, but as it sounds, we're planning a podcast for Mirage Company news, q&a, and community updates. 

We're also planning the website and Substack blog. We've got a lot of food cooking in the kitchen, and we're excited to serve up some tasty games. We're diversifying as we ramp up into version beta.

Until next time,
