Whoa!
What a great few weeks.
The entire team has been absolutely stoked by all the great feedback on the reveal and launch of the Ion Maiden Preview Campaign.
The game is currently at a 97% Steam rating, which completely blew us away!
We knew we had something great on our hands, but we were completely taken by surprise with all the positive feedback we've gotten so far.
The team is hard at work on the full version of Ion Maiden, and while that's still some months ahead of us, we've also been working hard on the first official update to the Ion Maiden Preview Campaign, which is available NOW!
It's based on a lot of feedback we've gathered from you guys over the last few weeks.
Enjoy!
