SOLARIS TIER: Welcome to the Willowmist beta!

This beta includes the full demo of the game, sitting at over 70,000 words long!

Housekeeping

Please don't stream or record playthroughs of these builds. They're rough, and they're not ready for everyone to see yet. We want to give the best impression to players, so please wait until the game is officially out before streaming it.

Please keep screenshots and thoughts about the beta on Patreon or in the Patreon beta chat on Discord.

Please use this spreadsheet to report any bugs/spelling mistakes/crashes you get so we can look into them!

I am immediately dropping EVERYTHING to play this now, and then I'll also absolutely stop by at PAX to play it again, super excited!

Played for a few min before I had to turn off the computer to get ready for bed; graphics, music, UI, writing are just like coming home after a long and exhausting day at work. It feels familiar somehow even though this is the first time I’ve played it. I think I’m going to greatly enjoy this 🥹
