Hey everyone! It's been quite the week hasn't it? We announced Super Yooka-Laylee Kart at Summer Games Fest as part of Day of the Dev's, and we've seen the incredible amount of love and support from our community since then. A massive THANK YOU to everyone who has wishlisted and shown support for the game over the last week, you're truly incredible. We have a few updates since the announcement that we'd like to share with y'all,
Yooka and Friends Drive to L.A!
[p align="start"]We announced Super Yooka-Laylee Kart last Friday, but that was only just the beginning! [p align="start"][p align="start"]Yooka and friends spent the weekend with the press as part of the play days event for some karting chaos, and suffice to say, people really enjoyed what they played of Super Yooka-Laylee Kart (special thanks to our Playtonic friend, Mark Boam, for manning the booth the entire time). [p align="start"]Here's a couple of photos from our booth, and yes, that's two players that picked Laylee; y'all seem to really love her. Yooka, Laylee, Vendi and Trowzer traveled to the event to compete, though rest assured, more characters from the Yooniverse will be available to play soon!
Laylee Spreads the Word!
