release date of the game. It seems that the plans have changed.
Sand developers want to polish the game
A few hours ago developers published a post on Steam (and other platforms) regarding the future of early access release date. They explain that Sand premiere has to be delayed due to the amount of work they have to complete to polish the title. Creators promise to concentrate on optimalization and core gameplay in the borrowed time.
It seems that this announcement was warmly received. Players mostly respond that the decision was good and they are waiting for the better version of the game. This delay had to be a very hard pill to swallow for the Hologryph studio, as it was announced a few days before the original release date was supposed to take place (April 3rd, 2025), so it was a battle until the last minute.
Sadly, developers have not shared the new launch date. We can hope that it will be soon enough. However, it is better to wait for a more polished product than get a bad one. So, let’s be patient.
