Milestone Update: From Kickstarter to Closed Beta – Celebrating TRU's Early Wins
Milestone Update: From Kickstarter to Closed Beta – Celebrating TRU's Early Wins
In 2020, 806 backers on Kickstarter helped launch Two Robots as a physical sci-fi card game—raising $20,943 to bring our vision of strategic, speed-driven battles to life. Today, Two Robots Studios is celebrating a new milestone with Two Robots Unleashed, a Web3, Godot-powered game now in closed beta on SepoliaETH testnet. Our gameplay engineer Antony's integration has streamlined our 3D arena's user experience, with smoother menus and refined logic, while backend developer Shambel's optimizations ensure every duel runs seamlessly for our 100+ testers.
