    Mewgenics is actually going to be released? I thought it was vaporware!

    …I’m actually glad. I was quite interested on the game when announced back then. The video makes me feel that it’s completely different from what I expected, but still fun. (I like this sort of X-COM-like game.)

      It actually was vaporware. Announced in 2012 and originally scheduled for release in 2014, it was officially cancelled in 2016, only to be re-announced in 2018, with a release probably “several years away”.

        And notably, it looks completely different from the original concept (which would have just been a management game) so its safe to say the original got scrapped, they just liked the theme enough to make it into something else.
