We have received many comments regarding our game Idle Plague and the Wuhan Coronavirus outbreak, and wanted to release a statement on the subject:
The Wuhan Coronavirus epidemic is a serious situation developing in China and the rest of the world. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families.
Idle Plague, published in collaboration with Iron Horse Games LLC, is in Early Access, and has been out since September last year. It is in no way connected to the Coronavirus outbreak, and if any players feel offended by it we are deeply sorry. This was not our intention at all.
We wanted to remind everyone that this is just a biology-based game which we made with honest intentions. I have a masters degree in science and really wanted to make something related to my past studies.
We are in NO WAY trying to capitalize on this terrible situation.
