It's been over a week since the release of 'Guardians' so now is probably the perfect time to outline the plan for the next few months.
Firstly though, we'd like to thank Stumpt for playing and showcasing 'Guardians' and also for some of the fantastic suggestions for improvements. If you haven't already then definitely check out the video below.

[h1] Roadmap [/h1]
Over the next coming months we will be releasing:
[list]
[*] Demo version - We want to make your decision to purchase 'Guardians' that much easier, therefore we are releasing a demo version of the game so that you can try before you buy. The demo will be a minimal content version of the game that you can play both [u][b]online[/b][/u] with fellow demo players and [u][b]locally[/b][/u] to give you a taste of the action.
[*] Library/HowToPlay - Over the past 12 months, we've worked on trying to make 'Guardians' as easy to pick up as possible. To help further with that, the library will contain all the information you need to help you in your journey to be the ultimate 'Guardian'.
[*] Minigun - The Minigun is a new item currently in development. It has a long windup and is widely inaccurate, but it makes up for that with its high fire rate. Be careful of firing it too long as it will become too hot to handle.
[*] More characters and maps - Currently in development is our next character 'The Pirate' (Name TBD), he'll arrive alongside his 2nd map 'The Island' a treasure island themed arena.
[*] More game modes - We have plans for lots more game modes, one currently in development is called 'Brawl' which forces guardians of fight in a constantly changing arena of traps.
[*] Localization - We want to make 'Guardians' as accessible as we can, and that means supporting as many languages as we can. If you'd like to get involved in helping with this then let us know on our discord. (https://discord.gg/U9Dkf98)

We're just putting the final few touches to Alpha 2.2 which contains a bunch of fixes and improvements. It should be with you in the next few days, and then we'll be preparing for Insomnia 63. If you are also attending then be sure to stop by the Indie Zone to see us.
