Stay Tuned!

Hello everyone! We want to, first of all, thank you all for your patience and bearing with us through this period. We know we have been rather quiet on the announcement front, but that is because we have both been hard at work improving the game and incorporating all the feedback we have received. We are in the final testing phase as we are ironing out and fixing some bugs with the game in preparation for our 1.0 release. While we do not have a firm date yet, we are aiming to release the game before the end of the year.

In the meantime, we wanted to post a list of the changes and updates we have made to the game to let you know what we have been up to over the past 6 months. We hope you are as excited to play the game as we are and, as always, if you have any suggestions or run into any problems, please let us know!

Yours truly,

Zzensan and VanguardMaster
