Hello!

I have some fantastic news to share! As some of you may know, I'm a solo developer who has been working on this game for almost 4 years now, on and off. While I love creating the game, I must admit that the business and marketing side of things isn't my strong suit. Many times over the years, I've wished for a team to handle that part so I could focus on development. Well, that wish has finally come true.

I'm thrilled to announce that I'm partnering with indie.io. If you haven't heard of them, I highly recommend checking out their page to see all the amazing indie titles they support.

This partnership is incredibly exciting for many reasons. For those of you who may not know, having a game publisher like indie.io greatly helps indie developers focus on game development while they handle all the behind-the-scenes magic. From helping manage store pages to crafting marketing campaigns and even helping the game shine at both digital and live events, publishers help in all the aspects that indie developers often struggle with.

In other words, it's perfect for someone like me who just loves to code and make sprites move on screen. Unlike many other publishers, indie.io lets me, the developer, stay in full creative control. This means I can continue working on the game uninterrupted. And what's in it for you? If you ever doubted my commitment to finishing and releasing the game, partnering with a publisher should put those doubts to rest. This game is going to happen.

I'd like to take this opportunity to encourage you to wishlist the game if you haven't already and to join the Discord community[discord.com]. On Discord, I share dev logs and occasionally livestream[www.twitch.tv] my development process. It's a great way to interact with me and play a small part in the game's development because I truly value any feedback I receive.

Thank you so much for your patience. I can't wait for you all to play the game!

Regards,
Fey, the developer of Factory Magnate
