| Some Updates of Our Current Development | 2022-10-17 | Hi guys! It's been some time since our last update. We have received so much support since our first demo testing this February. It's been such an honor and also quite overwhelming at the same time. Nobody – The Turnaround is the first game of our studio and it's impossible for us to avoid making mistakes. To create a fun and challenging game, we had to rebuild the game several times to ensure the best game experience for you at Early Access. We have added many new features and contents into the game to create a more immersive world. However, this takes more time than we expected. (Besides, we had to work from home for some time due to incide |

This playtest and the massive feedback we’ve received earlier have helped us a great deal while setting the direction of the subsequent development and polishing of the game. First of all, we will improve the guidance and rule descriptions in the game, and optimize the entertainment mini-games for a more fun game experience.

To be honest, this is far beyond the imagination of any of our team members. Thank you all for your great support and passion for the game!
