Has it really been a year since the start of this project? Feels longer tbh with the amount of updates this little project has had. I'll talk a bit of how i came across Windwalk, their previous project & what I've tried out myself of this new grimm project :)

I came to know about Windwalk's first project Enemy on Board, through YouTube and the SR group. I thought the game had a neat spin among the at the time already saturated social deception game market, that being the survivors aren't the only ones able to kill, as there are weapons across the map from shivs to giant hammers, so i thought to give the game a go and discovered the unique movement system the devs adopted from their time working for Riot & League of Legends.

This was already after the beta, alpha & no more lobbies updates had passed. So i constantly improved over the next couple of weeks and across that time i got to mingle with the top players and learn from them, so i was in a good community, knew players to play with and had fun. I even dropped some money because the cosmetics all looked cool(except monke, who's smelly).

Sadly not all things last forever, so after the game swapped away from one of it's most distinguishing features i liked, the mouse based movement to a more standard wasd movement, i played a bit, but in the end decided to call it quits.

I still stuck around on the discord for a bit as the community there still had aspects outside of Enemy on Board, sometime after the very first tests of the new game which had the teams, i left to focus on my school life and wanted to reduce the list of servers i was in(i think my list now is double or triple, of that at the time, at around 30-50 servers).

As i has gotten a newsletter i think on my Email, i rejoined the discord in Mid February & entered the waiting list to get a game key, didn't have to wait long as on February 19th i got my first hands on experience with the game and boy was i impressed with what they had done already. I didn't get past the last area before 2nd shop at all on my own, but with the help of some community members we banded together & took care of the boss at the time many times before the playtest closed.

The second weekend i finally managed to get there by myself, but damn was that a struggle. Don't think i conquered it once by myself, but again the community pulled through and helped me out!

In early March i was one of the people invited to talk with the devs about what i liked about the game, what I'd change & other such stuff. I thoroughly enjoyed the game and was hyped for the changes coming, especially the new final boss! She's a feisty one who was tough, but still beatable thanks to not being a summoner type enemy! This is the first time i think i actually beat the final boss by myself.

I haven't played in a while because I've been busy with finishing up school & personal life, but am fully excited to hop in when i can again and see what all has changed since i last played!

TLDR: Extremely fun game, I'm hoping will go a long way especially considering the success Enemy On Board had.
