I have been working on the next update for several months. This update contains bug fixes, changes, a new level and additional new content added. Thank you again for your continued support while I develop and further improve the game. As previously stated there is still a long road ahead and I am happy you are here and coming along on this journey with me as I work towards the final release of the game (date TBA).
Here are the patch notes:
