Singaporean indie game studio Play for Fun has launched the Alpha Test for upcoming life sim and social party game, Club Koala on PC in the West. Request Alpha access via the game’s Steam page or official website.
The Alpha test will run through April 28.
Club Koala combines Animal Crossing with Roblox and some Fall Guys to create an online gaming experience full of minigames. The online game features shared social hubs and gatherings via islands, where players can craft, build, and customize their own space.
Players can also set off to play an assortment of 3D platforming minigames, including a map editor where players can make their own maps and games via Unity. The Alpha test will focus on the minigames and editor.
Club Koala also embraces AI technology. Powered by Atom AI, NPCs adapt to players and generate theoretically unique storylines and quests.
“The full version of Club Koala is built around AI-Powered spaces for player-generated content (UGC), encompassing a broad spectrum of content—from major gameplay components to subtle artistic nuances—all of which are under rigorous development,” states the development team. “The current testing phase offers players a sneak peek at the foundational framework, with many more surprises yet to come. Our aim is to provide a sense of belonging and emotional support to players from diverse ages, backgrounds, and nationalities. Additionally, we are committed to enhancing the tools available to creators, affording them even greater creative freedom.”
With Alpha testing running now, the Beta will launch on PC and mobile devices in Q4 2024.
