How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We're placing our community at the heart of the process. Our main platform for this will be Discord, providing an interactive space for real-time conversations, feedback, and sharing updates. We'll actively involve you in shaping Slasho by discussing new ideas, gathering your insights on potential items and upgrades, and understanding your preferences. Additionally, the Steam forums will serve as a crucial platform for us to review and respond to all player feedback. This dual approach ensures comprehensive community involvement, where your thoughts and suggestions directly guide the game's evolution, making each update and feature a reflection of our community's diverse strategies and playstyles. Your participation is fundamental in crafting a 'Slasho' experience that resonates with every player's unique approach.”
