Howdy Ranchers,

Thanks to everyone who played our demo during Steam Next Fest.

We appreciate your feedback very much. It helped us look at our game from other perspectives.

We are planning to keep the demo up and prepare at least one more content update before the launch of the game.

We’ll bring you new devlogs as well.

Do you have any mechanics or topics that you'd like to see a devlog about?
