Evoland release date is sooner than expected

Coming to Steam, GOG, and the dev’s website

The Evoland Facebook page has just announced the release date for the overhauled and complete version of the game: April 4, 2013 — a mere two weeks away.

Evoland began as a Ludum Dare entry, a game made in 48 hours. The now “Classic” version of the game has some nice commentary on videogames as a whole, and is a quick little jaunt through videogame history.

The updated standalone version is way bigger and even ventures into 3D territory. There’s a Steam page up now, though no price is shown. I’m really glad that the developers decided to turn this into something bigger than a LD entry, since the premise is great and the original execution was flawless, if a bit brief.
