Shards of Azuria is Greenlit on Steam! Wooo!
Since being Greenlit on Steam at the end of May, things have been moving behind the scenes in a few different areas.
Shards of Azuria itself is still very much in development and continues to get new additions and changes, but is also being prepared to make it’s transition onto Steam.
There’s also been some ‘admin’ to take care of in the meantime, which does tend to restrict the amount of time to focus entirely on game development.
In addition to this, I have prepared this new site to allow for full details on the progress of development. Including patch notes and build information.
Within the next few days, I will cover the recent changes that have been made since being Greenlit.

Build 5.1 & Future Plans
5.1 Thoughts Last night Build 5.1 went live, which brought an end to the Halloween event and added an option to choose a movement control alignment.
