Release timeline adjusted

Hi everyone,

Early Access launch has been postponed from Q1 2026 to Q3 2026.

Game also won't be featured in February 2026 Steam Next Fest. It should join in the following Next Fest.

After some feedback and further analysis, there are areas that will need more work before it's ready.

Rather than rushing it out, I'm taking extra time to polish things and make sure the game is fun!

Demo will stay up and be updated as I polish things and add new features.

Thank you for your understanding!
