Thank You for this Opportunity
This was one of our busiest ever months at the studio, but also one of the most fun! We spent a lot of time together writing code, playing Deadzone, making balance changes, creating new art and music, finding and fixing bugs, designing new systems, coming up with crazy names, telling bad jokes, and eating LOTS of pizza.
Everyone at our studio knows just how hard it is to create a game that can achieve this level of success, and we appreciate how rare and special this opportunity is. It's been so cool to see our whole team rise up to the moment, and we really hope that all the effort shows in this patch!
Thank you again for your support and this opportunity - it's what lets us keep doing what we love, which is making awesome games together. We hope you enjoy Zone 3 and the 1.0 launch, and good luck conquering the Deadzone!
