We kept going, and going and going with this one. We tried to play and replay and patch and re-patch until we had nothing to complain about. It was an insane journey. We are trying to get the mid game to the same level of polish as the early game. I can tell we still have some work ahead of us for the late game.. (beyond the boss fights, they are already my personal favorites in the game!) Alongside some new features connected to emotes; there's now new puzzling mechanics as well! Too many things to mention here.. You guys like lists right? Cuz boii.. Do we have one for you!
