Minor but Major – Quality of Life changes
Sernur.tech was known to be based in the middle of nowhere in Russia. And 2022 turned out to be the most difficult year in everyone's life for us. We worked hard and managed all the difficulties one after another. But there were more and more of them.
We've made a hard decision for ourselves and our families. And this update rightfully can be called a Quality of Life Update for us.
We opened Sernur.tech Montenegro. For now we have relocated most of our crew, and most importantly, all our spirit and desire to create a gaming experience for you.
???? Our goals
???? Now one of the priority tasks for us will be settling into a new place. Helping developers and families with all the basic needs to make sure nothing gets in the way of work and creativity.
???? Continue to expand and improve Trigon with new content, features, game session balance, and game mods. The visibility into our future games and updates roadmap is excellent and our ability to execute on that roadmap is stronger than ever before.
???? Improve our average steam reviews into Positive. Slowly but steadily it has a good trend and we will continue working hard to earn it. We believe in what we do and are happy to have so many players with us.
???? How can you help?
????If you still have Trigon: Space Story only on your wishlist - ver. 1.0.9.2590 is available now on sale. There has never been a better time to explore Trigon Galaxy, Commander.
????If you already have the game it is time to tell about Trigon to your friends to save 50% on the Steam Autumn sale.
