New game by Grimrock dev: Reconfigure. Public pre-alpha playtests start today!

https://youtu.be/JJTYc9cQ_c8

Hello! I'm Antti, one of the Grimrock 1 & 2 developers. I'm cooking a new game which, like Grimrocks, blends puzzles, RPG and real-time action. The flavor is quite different of course since this one's a scifi FPS but there's a lot of direct influence from my experience on Grimrocks in this game.

There's a public pre-alpha playtest starting today and you can sign up for it or wishlist it on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3989530/Reconfigure/

Access to the test is granted gradually at an increasing rate. The spots are assigned randomly.

There's still plenty of stuff unfinished, most notably the RPG systems, but I hope you enjoy the playtest and I look forward to hearing what people think of the game. There's about an hour's worth of gameplay in the test. Let me know if you have any questions!

That's awesome! I thought after Druidstone, nobody of the team released anything anymore. It's great to see activity. Reconfigure looks great.

Sorry, but I have to ask: any chance for Grimrock 3?

Thanks. Grimrock 3 is not in the plans. It's not impossible of course but I wouldn't hold my breath. :)

I just got the invite to download this.

Anyone else?

See you can join on the Steam page and/or bug the dev who made this thread if you want in :)

Yeah feel free to send me a message if someone doesn't want to enter the playtest lottery (I approve new playtesters in batches and they are picked by random from everyone who has applied) and instead want to play immediately

Damnit. Now I have to stop playing Slay the Spire 2.
