Hey everyone! Thanks for another great year of FTD, the necromancy spells still hold and FTD is still going. We are working on a new game (and have been for over a year now) which is completely not builder game or FTD related and is more of a tactical game like x-com but 1st and 3rd person. We'll let you know more about that later in the year, stay tuned and keep in touch! Still more FTD plans…

Patch 4.2.2 address some of the feedback we received about the camera update.
