• The Evolution of Factomancer: From "Color Blocks" to a Magical World - 24 February 2026

Even if the game looks "unpolished" or even "ugly" at first, you have to bring it into existence before you can make it beautiful.Here is how the world of Factomancer came to life:🟩 July 2024: The "Color Block" EraEverything was just a placeholder. We were busy brainstorming core mechanics and trying to figure out what the "soul" of the game would look like. No art, just ideas and cubes. It wasn't pretty, but the foundation was being laid.🦴 January 2025: Building the SkeletonWe built the first rough scenes. It was still quite raw, honestly, but the basic interactions and systems were finally there. It worked, and that was enough to keep us…
