Dear Survivors,

First, we want to sincerely apologize for the recent silence and lack of updates. Developing Singularity Survivors has been a challenging journey, often led by just one person at a time. The process has been demanding, but the passion and determination to deliver a great experience have never wavered.

This quiet period wasn’t due to inactivity, far from it. Every moment has been spent rethinking, redesigning, and rebuilding the game to create something truly special. This isn’t just an update; it’s a massive overhaul, the result of countless hours of hard work and dedication.

If everything goes as planned, this update will be ready by the end of this month. It’s the most ambitious yet, packed with exciting features, enhanced mechanics, and improvements that will take Singularity Survivors to the next level. Thank you for your patience and support, it means everything.
