COMMUNITY INSIGHTS AND FUTURE PLANS
Soulframe Creative Director Geoff Crookes highlighted the impact of closed testing with the community, emphasizing the importance of feedback and iterative development. “We’re hoping to open this up to a lot more players this fall. Everything is still rough around the edges, but that’s part of our style - the feedback is important to us, and we do iterate on it regularly.”
Community Manager Sarah Asselin expressed her gratitude towards the Soulframe community, stating, “The community we’ve formed around Soulframe has been inspiring for the team and they are the backbone of everything we do. We’re welcoming more new players than ever and we can’t wait to share our progress through regular Devstreams with the team as we continue to peel back Soulframe’s layers of intrigue.”
