This year's Game Developer Conference was more than I had hoped it would be which is a good sign. The industry itself is finally warming up to the idea of a more player-driven world. This will help us acquire a publisher once our demo is complete. The pitch we hoped to make in the beginning of this year never came to be, as we were simply left waiting for an answer that we haven't yet received. Such is the nature of things so we've learned. In any case we're already moving forward with alternative plans even as this newsletter hits your email boxes. Through all of this we continue to work towards a great demo that shows what Ages of Athiria is and could be. We appreciate all of our fan's support and will remain true to our commitment of openness by keeping you as up-to-date as possible.
