Hi Folks

1.1 is live! Lots of improvements here:

- Click turning: Vive users swipe left/right on the thumb pad. Oculus users click left/right with the joystick

- Better blink UI: It's much harder to wind up inside a wall... ouch! Also much easier for new users unfamiliar with blinking

- Far better performance on a broad range of GPU's. And if you like, you can select higher or lower quality settings by launching from a folder with control/option double-click. We'll aim to add a quality setting in the in-app UI in the near future. Mac users, you should have a far better experience out of the box, with more options if you need 'em.

- Lots of little fixes in layout and character performance.

We're preparing some DLC now, for a new release in the very near term. Keep an eye out if you want more of the back-story.

We're also preparing a major update to the sound FX in a future release. More news on that soon.

Please drop word with any concerns/complaints/suggestions. We're thrilled that the project is well received, and look forward to continuing the story. We sincerely love sharing the work with you and hearing your thoughts.
