Phew. Thanks a lot everybody, hopefully we’ll have more articles on our upcoming game to share soon!
Until then you can also follow us on Twitter and Facebook – where we’ll also be sharing some sneak peeks of our current prototyping efforts in the weeks to come. If all goes well we’ll have something of an early game to show ending of this/beginning of next year. Unless we turn all Lord of the Flies on each other. Either way there’ll be pictures so go ahead and follow us! 🙂
Cheers,
David
