Android Official Release
OUT NOW!
SideQuest is now officially available on Android!
I want to tell you a story.
Back in 2024, the original SideQuest was only built for iPhone. Shortly after development, I stopped the project. Back then, I only had a few friends testing.
I liked the idea, but the app didn't match what I was imagining. The version in my head was much bigger. I got overwhelmed by the pressure of feeling like I needed to execute it perfectly.
I gave up.
In December 2025, I restarted the project from scratch. Building intentionally. Completely new UI. New framework. New trajectory. New idea:
"Just do it for fun."
Honestly, I have no idea what drew me back to it. But I began chiseling at the marble.
Somehow, I started logging 12+ hour development days for most of December. And it felt... fun.
But I felt intentional with my passion. Finally, I felt like I was actually building something real. For the first time in my life, I felt like I was truly trying at something without being trapped by perfectionism.
Shortly after, SideQuest launched officially on iOS.
Players I wouldn't recognize started accumulating on the leaderboard.
"Who's this?"
- a few of my friends asking about new users
"I have no idea."
- me
Their response?
"NICCCEEEEE"
Android is Live
After many bugs, rebuilds, and resubmissions with Google Play, Android is now officially live on v7.5.0.
Closed Test Group
Thank you to the Android closed test group that helped identify many bugs:
- ShreeGG
- Intermezzo
- Alex
- Android (my other phone, lol!)
There is still so much more that I want SideQuest to become. Its own professional art style. Immersive battle systems with bossing. More quests. More guild content. More reasons to keep walking. More reasons for gamers to feel alive and connected.
Thank you to everyone who has played and supported.
