The last several months have been interesting indeed. Most of my time has been with working on this port of SickBrick into the Unity 5 engine. Do not let the word port fool you, this is a complete re-imagning of the game from the ground up. I have been working on this since December 2016.
I will be giving the other games I made Incognito and Space Trucker a similar treatment in the months to come. Another nice plus to moving into Unity 5 is cross-platform support. Currently the Windows version has been updated and the Mac and Linux universal binaries will roll out sometime later this week.
The Windows version comes in both x86 (32bit) and x86_64 (64bit) flavors. When I release the Mac and Linux versions they will be universal binaries. More information in the changelog. Take care everyone and have fun with this new version of the game!
EDIT: The Mac and Linux builds are now live. Soundtrack is also now free to all who purchase the game also, all previous players have been granted soundtrack and cross-platfrom builds.
