Today developer DrinkBox studios announced that Severed will be delayed and will not be out this summer.
They indicated the following in their email blast:
โHello friend, DrinkBox Studios here! You might remember us from such games as Guacamelee! and Mutant Blobs Attack, or our currently in-production game Severed. Weโre also the company who fills our games with memes and dumb jokes.โ
โSo, why are we sending you this message? Well, we wanted to give you a quick update on the progress of Severed. The good news is that Severed is days away from hitting Alpha! The bad news is the game wonโt be out this summer as we had previously expected. Severed is a really different game from anything weโve made before and we want to take a few additional months for playtesting and tuning so that we can make it the best game it can be.โ
