Hey everyone! We have been working hard to bring you more content and to further stablize the game. Here's the run down!
New tutorial system
We have been listening to the community and it is widely accepted that the current tutorial system sucks. We removed it and setup a brand new system. Panos put a lot of work into the new tutorial so make sure to give him a shout out! It can be accessed via the pause menu ingame.

The ugly and hard to read text
We would like to apologize for the disgusting text that has plagued the game for the past month or so. The engine we use (Game Maker: Studio 2) is in beta and had an unfortunate text issue. The latest update they released fixed it and so the text should once again be readable, and properly aligned.

More updates inbound!
We are still working on Rock God Tycoon as tirelessly as we were during its Early Access phase and plan to continue to do so for a while. The next update is likely going to be next week or the following week. I am in the process of moving homes and in early March Panos is going to be going out of town for a while.
We have made plans to continue development during this time but with the stress of all that on us, we don't want to make any promises just yet. What we can promise you is a surprise in March. Nothing too special of course but it'll sure be a something!
