Hello everyone,

The 0.8.1 version is finally here! We are quite happy with the results, and hope you enjoy the game more than ever. With each update the game is improved to reach the expectations.

First, we will point out the work done for this version:

- Optimization: We took our time making sure the game runs much better than the previous version. In average, we gain 15 frames per second (*see below) We also resolved a known issue where the frames dropped every three or four seconds. The game runs now smoothly and is optimized.

- Item balancing: We finally took the opportunity to tweak further the items given in the world. It is now well proportioned according to the difficulty chosen by the player

- New weapon added: A second weapon is now available. We will eventually add at least 2 new weapons in future updates. For now, the Plasma Gun and the Electro-magnetic Pulse Rifle are available in game.

- Enemy behavior: The current creatures living in Ariel needed a better behavior.

- Extras: We added a few tweaks here and there. We also fixed a couple of bugs and improved some mechanics.

We feel that the version released today should have been the actual release on Early Access. At the same time, it was useful for us to get the game out a bit earlier in order to detect important areas to work on first.

Since we are a only two active developers, it has been a lot of work, but all worth it, since we believe that the project is finally reaching a satisfactory experience. It will be getting better and better, but we can certainly recommend this version to any player who might be intrigued by the project.

As usual, thank you for your support. Let us know if you have any comments. We hope you like this new update!
