Hi everyone!

In today’s announcement, I wanted to let you know that development of the game is continuing and I’m aiming for a release around this summer. I’m working solo, so the process takes quite a while. At the same time, I’m doing my best to make the game as interesting and visually appealing as possible, pushing my graphic art skills (which I barely have) and my programming abilities to the limit.

Now let me share what I’m currently working on:

That’s all I wanted to share in this announcement for now. Please stay tuned for more updates and the demo release announcement in the coming months.

Thank you for your attention!
