Arcade mushing simulator Dog Sled Saga is now fully available across multiple platforms on September 22nd, 2016 – the first day of fall. The game transitions today out of Steam Early Access (Windows, Mac OS, Linux), and launches on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
Dog Sled Saga is the debut collaboration between creators Dan FitzGerald and Lisa Bromiel. Players take on the role of a rookie musher who must foster a team of unique dogs to carve their story into the trails of the Mount St. Something region. The game combines hectic arcade racing with rich team management layers.
Three and a half years of development have seen a quickly funded Kickstarter campaign in 2013, a well received Steam Early Access project, 3 times showing at PAX, and a recent string of major updates pushing towards the emergent role-playing game it was envisioned to become. The full release includes many big new things like overarching story moments, a breeding system, and a final wave of polish.
Dog Sled Saga will be shown in the inaugural Google Indie Games Festival on September 24th.
