A new backer demo will arrive next week!
We're putting the finishing touches on all the foundational overworld features developed so far. With the intent to deliver all the things promised back when the Kickstarter was wrapping up.
Features such as:

Even with all that, there's still much to do before releasing the next big open public demo. There's entire mechanics missing like Catching Wild Ponies and Activating Ultra Forms as well as plenty of Quality of Life UI Improvements. We're aiming for April to get all that done and polished to the state where we wouldn't mind a Streamer putting this game in front of new eyeballs.

Things are mechanically sound, and currently our engine tools are at a point where we can do just about anything we'd want in an RPG like this. However, there's still visual cleanup to be done and some bugs to squash.
Mainly this stuff here: (from our Dev Discord)

But we're giving it 'til the 28th and just pushing what we've got to a new build so you guys can finally play around with the BGP Overworld, completely rebuilt from scratch!
Hope you all look forward to getting your hands on this as much as we're looking forward to using these tools to make the full game. ๐ฎ
