Hey everyone,
Thanks a lot for all the help with the game's Beta. Your feedback and gameplay videos have been invaluable.
We are releasing the first major update to the Beta. The game is almost content-complete, and you can now finish it. Just be aware that the cutscenes are still very unpolished and their low quality can spoil the experience a bit.
Our first major change in response to your feedback was the interface: you told us that it is too big and too "mobile-y". We made it big to match our inspirations (PopCap games from the early 2000's, mostly), but we understand that for today's standards they look uncomfortable and they make the game look like a mobile port.
We hope you like the new look for the interface! Our Shop is still unfinished though, so it still looks ugly (sorry!).
Next update: the ranked "Trials of Valhalla" mode! (that's the big green gate on Snail Planet, for those of you who asked).
Cheers,
~Mark
