Story Mode brought in significantly less new users than we anticipated and essentially we have less development money than we need to support ourselves until the project is finished. As such, Dr. Shameless Cat has left the project to look for work, and I’ve diverted my attention to porting A Robot Named Fight! to PlayStation and searching for publishers to raise some more funds.

Specifically, the new plan is to focus on Arcade Mode first, releasing the Act II and Act III arcade content before releasing any more Story Mode. To that end, there is some cool content to share . It's not all doom and gloom.
