Sup Gnomies,
In the previous update we added 17 new languages as well as 4 new maps to the game! As a result we've been overwhelmed by huge wave of new supporters as well as the return of so many experienced players. In the last month we welcomed 15,712 new players (and 20,477 new wishlisters).
If you haven't already, please leave us a review on our Steam page, (it really helps us out a lot)
