Whalenought Studios has just published a new post-funding Kickstarter update for Serpent in the Staglands in which they announce the release date for the backer-only beta of the game (October 11th) and discuss what will be included in it. A quote:
We're very excited to announce that we'll be releasing the beta to specific backer tiers next weekend, so put on your Spicer boots, grab a torch, and get ready for some adventuring. The initial beta will be for Windows and Mac and will include all the main features in the game to be tested. These maps will have the (beta-stage) version of questing, encounters, town folk, and battles we've set up for testing.
It will be primarily low level content for the first grade of skills/spells and aptitude abilities, and we'll be updating the beta down the road with the second grade of skills/spells for a new content area. We're aiming to not spoil any of the main quest pick-ups in this combat beta, so we've changed certain NPCs and removed some random special encounters. Bandits, Iele gangs, flying imps, possessed children, Padurii and more are all awaiting a beating.
