Hi everyone, Sorry for not updating the game lately but we've been really busy in the last couple of months. Big news are coming out soon about us and our company (Castello Inc) but this is not the time to tell you about it yet. No new level this time, for "The cove" you'll have to wait a bit more. Sorry about that. This update is a minor update and it's mostly VFX and performance improvements…
Hi Everyone. First of all, a little gif of the new boss we're working on. Someone called it Shark-ADE, we love it. In this Schrodinger Update we had a deeper look at difficulty levels. We had a long conversation about what to change based on difficulty: projectile speed, projectile size, player capsule size, weapon damage, enemy health, ecc... We choose not to modify any of this, ARK-ADE plays…
Hi Everyone, We are happy to finally announce that SUPERMALL LEVEL is READY FOR YOU TO PLAY!

Hi everyone, this is it, ARK-ADE is out now. You have been the first who believed in us and for that we want to thank you! We love to think that we have made this game together. If it wasn't for your feedback this game wouldn't be the game it is now! The ones of you that tried the first version of the game know that it was pretty different. ARK-ADE was slower, less arcadey, difficult to underst…
We are very excited to announce our release date. It has been a really long journey, 2 years of hard working laughs and tears.

Hi Everyone, we can't hold it anymore, we are thrilled to announce to all of you that ADE finally LIVES (and shoots!)!! We're not gonna lie, it was and still is a challange and a pain in the back. So far we did't realise how difficult it would have been to create from nothing a villian up to the expectation we had in mind for our game. However, we learnt a lot from this experience and it surely…
