Good evening everyone,

Finally we are ready with our new release. Probably it was the most challenging period of time for us. Last update we had a major engine related issue that the project would crash on launch. After spending two whole weeks we managed to fix it and let's hope that it was the last of it. We had this version ready for a while now, but once again unreal played tricks on us with the game freezing on launch, which was more annoying than the crash before. Still in the end we managed to find a solution for it.

We are sorry that it took us 4 months to release this version and it might not seem that all these months could be justified with the current release. Along the way we learned a lot of crucial information on how we should continue with this project. Your support helped us a lot to get where we are now, but as it is the project is not sustainable on it's own(yet), so we had to dedicate some of our time elsewhere just to pay the bills. Still you can rest assured that we will continue working as much as we can and we hope that you will be here with us through out this fun and exciting journey.

Currently it became a bit difficult for only two of us to maintain big and steady updates (thus 4 months since the last update). Therefore, our current plans are to take few steps back, organize everything and put a realistic plan together to move forward. We want 0.1 version to showcase everything that the game could offer. In order to do that we will start polishing aspects of the game that already exist and put new features on hold. Once everything is up to our standards and we have a better working pipeline than now, we will start introducing new game elements before and after the 0.1 release. So you can expect a lot of things to change. 

A huge revamp for main characters and story is coming soon. We are planning to make 6 classes with their own unique presets which you will choose when creating a character.
