Well hello there! It’s been some time, without updating, so let me just say: The game is released! Exclusively on iOS (for now). I decided to delay the Steam release till some weeks AFTER the Steam Summer sale (which started yesterday), and the Android version will be somewhere before that.
Recent versions I’ve been adding a lot of changes and tweaks, and I just pushed a v1.0.2 to the app-store to fix some mobile-specific problems with mostly the interface (which is good, because so far, I had no complaints about the game itself!)
Let me just share all the changes since v0.8.0.. which..have been a lot..
