Skiffy Decides 2015: Price drop!
Episode 1's price has been permanently dropped down - it's now just $2.99USD (and there are equivalent price drops in other territories)!
The Hollow Wish pack (Ep1 and Ep2) has been dropped to $6.99USD as well, to ensure it's still value for money compared to buying the two separately (so that's about a 12% saving).
Episode 2's price remained unchanged at $4.99USD at this point in time (just to make sure that's clear).
Cheers!

Soundtrack and Comics now Available as DLC
Quite a few people have been asking about the availability of the Blade Kitten comics as well as the soundtrack, so we're happy to report that these are now available for purchase in the Steam store!
There are two DLC packs available:
Blade Kitten: Comic Pack - Dirty Angels
- 133 pages of comic goodness
- 111 pages of unused art and comic ideas in the bonus book (this is the art that is in the "Ultomato" compilation available at online comic stores)
- PDF format
Blade Kitten: Soundtrack + Remixes
- Soundtracks for Episode 1 and 2 consisting of 29 tracks
- 12 remixes in celebration of the Episode 2 release
- MP3 format, compatible with the Steam Music Player
There is also a Blade Kitten: Soundtrack and Other Comics package that combines both of these DLC available, at a discount.
We're compiling a list of issues that people have been reporting and are working through those, in the hope of getting some fixes out to you all in the next couple of weeks.
Cheers

Episode 2 Has Been Released
You can find it on the Steam store at: http://store.steampowered.com/app/300120/
Alternatively, you can use the "Purchase Episode 2" option in-game on the main menu (which will open the Steam overlay and add the purchase) - just note that you will have to quit the game to allow the content to install.
Once it is installed, if you have finished the level "Dreadnaught", when you hit "Continue" on the main meny the story will just keep going...
(The Hollow Wish Package is also now available).
We hope you have a great time playing Episode 2. It's been a labor of love to get it out there to you - hopefully that shows in the game.
Cheers

- Option 1: The Blade Kitten: Hollow Wish comic collection; with all the issues of the comic bundled into a PDF and in your Steam install directory.
- Option 2: The Blade Kitten: Hollow Wish comic collection; with all the issues of the comic bundled into a PDF and in your Steam install directory.
- Option 3: The Blade Kitten: Hollow Wish comic collection; with all the issues of the comic bundled into a PDF and in your Steam install directory.
