Gene-Soldier is now FREEWARE

NOTE: There is no way for us to append multiple games that applied to only single shared devlog so we had to post them individually for each game. Apologies if it feels like spam. We hope someday Itch can implement a devlog share feature.

The time has come. Néotl Empire has made the daring decision to abandon our commercial reliance on Epic Games and their Unreal Engine series!

We have made an important announcement regarding all of our products actively being sold on all digital storefronts. Any that use Unreal Engine it are extremely affected. The COMPLETE article can be read here.

For those of you who are too busy or too lazy to read a two-page long sermon on what is happening, here is the TL:DR version:

We have decided to do what many developers may consider "the unthinkable", or even "the utterly insane". From this day forth, we will begin the process to convert ALL of our projects using any of the Unreal Engines into NON-COMMERCIAL ones or switch engines.

• ALL games using UE currently on storefronts will become FREE.
• ALL games using UE we have currently in development that meets or exceeds 50% of progress will also be released for FREE.
• ALL games using UE we have currently in development that exceeds below 50% of progress will be RESTARTED using a DIFFERENT engine. Depending on the project type, platforms, and the scope, it will either use Godot or O3DE. For instance, Mobile games will likely restart on Godot; Higher quality PC games will likely restart on O3DE.
• ANY new games we have planned on lineup but not yet started will be using a DIFFERENT engine (Godot or O3DE).

For once, we can finally move on to greener pastures.
