Hey all!
We've been working on Coco's Revenge behind the scenes. We also made some small updates to the demo build in anticipation of Dublin Comic Con this weekend.
This should make Coco's Revenge more accessible for those who are on older machines and adds a new challenge with the achievements for those who have already played the demo.
We are also at Dublin Comic Con this weekend, so drop by the booth, come chat to us and play the game!
If not, don't fret! The same demo that we're showing at Comic Con is live on Steam right now!
For those of you wonderful people out there who have wishlisted or played the demo, we thank you so much and hope to share more news with you about a full release soon as the summer comes to an end.
A full list of patch notes is below.
As always, stay vengeful!
Paul & James
