Dear @elindos
Thank you for sharing this link with me. I've checked out Exode Game just now and .. just few words/questions first:
a) "sign in" screen:
those fonts are to small (at least on desktop).
I could hardly read "If you are an EXODE captain already, please enter your HIVE account". Comparing to fonts on hive - those in the game are almost twice smaller (Im using brave browser).
b)
"Or you can also click here to access this account's public profile." -> what does it actually mean?
c)
Is there any way to test game before user would actually purchase one of the starters worth 10$?
It may be quite difficult to convince users to try out this game and consider playing it, without having an opportunity to see what is this game about.
d) Based on my understanding, you're using keychain as the only way to sign in to exode? What about other options, like hivesigner?
So far I'm quite impressed with efforts of your work.
Yours, Piotr
This is in line with some of our discussions about gaming on hive. Also really nice comment about being able to try prior to purchase. Even non-crypto games allow for this period
Thank you greatly @machnbirdsparo!
the good news are that we have a demo!
Please check our link below.
It is a former build with a fixed starter; we don't have this one on maintenance; a new build is coming this month.
Note that games such as Splinterlands (if we speak of crypto games) were not free to play for extremely long after release though (AFAIK of course) .
And for games which are not freetoplay games, if we speak of non-crypto this time, they rarely propose a demo! Especially... when on alpha! as we are still on alpha.
Even better, they usually are on NDA when in alpha, to make sure no media is there with their unfixed version, whereas we are not on NDA.
Free demo can still give the wrong impression this early and extend the number of test situations before we can address the common one, but indeed the idea is not to prevent from experiencing the game.
So... enjoy the game!

I hope everything will go smoothly for you!
if not, please check our discord, as I won't be able to track errors easily from replies.
Enjoying the graphics
Did you see this trailer @machnbirdsparo

Really interesting piece of work.
if you would ever plan to try out exode and decide to create an account, then please let me know. I will share with you my ref-link and I can cover half of value of your "starter card". This will allow us to be near each other within this game, which will apparently help with trade and future progresss
Cheers,
Piotr
Sent you some screenshots of me playing the demo in discord. Also added some of the demo shots to the developer's post.
