!wanderingalchemist@lemmy.zip

Just a small community for the game I’m currently developing. Fully free, no ads, no data collection, no in-app purchases. Still looking for testers and feedback :)

    No complaining, but if you travel above 12 km/h you won’t get any progress on distance walked (For daily quests, companion pickups and so on).

    But you can fully pick up resources, brew potions, sell them and place buildings (though as soon as you back out of placement mode you’ll jump in location, not optimal).

    I only added the 12 km/h gate to discourage playing while driving, but the game doesn’t bug you about it :)

        It’s still in Closed Testing (until Google finally lets me fully release it).

        You have to join the Google Group here with your Play Store email:

        https://groups.google.com/g/wandering-alchemist-closed-test

        Then you can join the test and download normally in the Play Store:

        https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vlyn.wanderingalchemist

        Always eager to hear feedback and suggestions, if you can think of some fun content let me know :)

            I actually have a few friends who want it on iOS. I’d have to get a used iPhone though and Apple also charges $99 a year just to keep your free app on their store…

            So my plan for now is to release for free on Android and if there is actually interest in the game I can look into iOS later. But then I’d have to do a onetime buy to play (like $5) for iOS to cover the cost. Bit of a mixed bag to be honest.

              I was just curious, don’t worry. currently I have a iPhone but as soon as it breaks down significantly I’ll change to another non-iPhone phone and I’ll be able to play your game :D

                Oh, why do you want to change away from iOS? Just due to the cost or other reasons?

                I’ve been an Android user all my live, but I do like to tinker more (:
