2024 News

5 Jan, 2024

Happy New Year 2024, Wandmakers!

As the mushrooms slowly wake up from their hibernation, I want to share a few updates with you.

To kick off 2024, I have some news—maybe not the best, but certainly not the worst. In a nutshell, we've 'almost' run out of cash to keep the game's development going. However, don't fret; development isn't stopping, just slowing down.

We've been considering a Kickstarter campaign since months ago, but that won't kick off until at least March or April. I'll keep you in the loop as we prepare for this exciting step. And hey, if you're a publisher interested in the game, I'd LOVE to have a chat so please reach out at [email protected].

Demo Departure

The public demo of Wonder Wandelier will be taken down on Sunday, Jan 7 at 4 pm UTC. We've received a ton of invaluable feedback from you, and now it's time to roll up our sleeves and get to work.
We'll still be on the lookout for testers in the future, so if you're interested, hop on our Discord[discord.gg], as that's where we'll be spreading the news.

What's Next?

For the next few months, we're shifting gears to focus on enhancing the game's visuals. While the core mechanics are pretty much ready, we believe it's time for Wonder Wandelier to get a visual glow-up. And this isn't just for aesthetics; it's also a strategic move to elevate our marketing.

Wonder Wandelier will also be included in the Steam Capitalism and Economy Fest from Jan 8 - 15. Join us for an exclusive gameplay video with dev commentary premiering during the fest!

Also, I can't spill the tea yet, but we're cooking up some side projects to keep the funds flowing. One of it is a tiny cozy game about a very loooong boy, set to launch very soon. Please look forward to it!

------------------------------------------------------------

A massive shoutout to all of you who've wishlisted Wonder Wandelier! Your belief in this project means the world to us. Updates might slow down a bit, but they're coming your way.

Stay wonderful, Wandmakers!

The Mushrooms Desperately Need a Break...

We also want to inform you that after a year of developing non-stop, Mushroomallow will take a break this December and will continue development again in January 2024. We will still reply and take note of all bug reports and suggestions we receive, but we'll address them in January.

For Playtesters

We decided to deactivate the playtest build on December 10 at 11 pm WIB (UTC+7). But once again, if you miss it, you can still play Wonder Wandelier from the demo build, which will be available at all times. Our Discord server is also available at all times if you want to send your feedback.
___________________________________________________________________

We hope you enjoy this latest update! Once again, we'd like to thank each one of you for playing Wonder Wandelier and for sending us your feedback and suggestions. It would also mean the world to us if you could share the game or recommend it to a friend who might enjoy it.

Wishing you all a wonderful time this holiday season! Have fun crafting and selling magic wands in Wonder Wandelier!

PLAYTEST IS LIVE until Nov 25! BUT

20 Nov, 2023

Hi Steam folks and Wandmakers!

I promise I'm not trying to drop a surprise title on you, but after noticing that many registered playtesters are a bit confused about how 'open signup' works, we've decided to launch the playtest build as a demo available to everyone at all times (or until further notice).

So, until November 25 (11 pm WIB to be exact cuz I need sleep ok?), you'll find two options on our page: one for the playtest and the other for the demo. But they both have the exact same build.

Here's the deal—we've already sent a notification email to our registered playtesters when we made the call to upload the demo. If we close the playtest right away, those registered playtesters who haven't downloaded the game might get confused wondering why it's not working. So, here's me crossing my fingers that they read this announcement because I don't want to spam them with emails.

The demo will drop a bit later today, including the latest patch to fix some bugs and unpolished bits we stumbled upon. The playtest build will also get this patch. More updates will be rolled out soon!

Character Art Update

We're also updating Wonder Wandelier character art!

Our artist is still hard at work on the new character art for Totti, Gochinco, and Pekepeke, but they'll soon make their debut in the game. Any favorites so far? (Besides our best girl Pucelle, of course)

Afterwords

As always, many thanks for reading this. We welcome all of your feedback, which you can send to us directly in our DISCORD SERVER[discord.gg].

Hope you have fun crafting and selling magic wand in Wonder Wandelier!

Playtest Build is Just Around the Corner!

13 Nov, 2023

UPDATE: Playtest is currently live until Nov 25 11pm WIB (+7 PST). After you request access, you can install the game right away!

Hello Steam folks and wandmakers!
Thank you for checking out our first Steam Announcement! I'm Mori, the community manager at Mushroomallow, and I'll be keeping you posted on Wonder Wandelier's development.

Let's dive into what you're eager to know:

The Playtest Build

Following playtest sessions with our QAs, we've identified the primary issue in our current build—UI clarity. Some of these concerns include:

Insufficient contrast between the UI background and white-colored text.
Font size being too small.
The need for an additional dark-colored background behind text pop-ups.

We've also recognized issues with the tutorial delivery. Given our current team size (just 5 of us) and resources, for the present build we're opting for text and dialogues to deliver the tutorial. The UI clarity concerns have impacted the tutorial delivery and thus, impacted the overall gameplay experience. These issues are on our radar for resolution this week (Nov 13-17) as we aiming to launch the playtest by the weekend.

We're also simultaneously setting up a Discord server for community gathering, bug reporting, and direct feedback. Stay tuned for another announcement once the Discord server and the playtest build are ready!

Afterwords

We want to express our sincere gratitude for everyone's interest in Wonder Wandelier. As our first commercial title, there's a lot for us to learn in the journey to release this game. Your support is what keeps us fueled and motivated. Truly, thank you so much!

If you use social media, you can also find me talking about the game in Twitter/X, Instagram[www.instagram.com], and Youtube. If any of you want to email us, feel free to reach out at [email protected].
