Dear Asteborgians,
We've been watching you play and we've been reading your feedback since the release at the beginning of August and here we are at the end of the month, patching things up in this 1.1 version ! A big thanks to the community for helping us out making these changes and to all the players really.
The update addresses some difficulty adjustments and includes bugfixes. This 1.1 version also adds achievements and new graphic options to fix screen tearing or lag which could appear on some devices. A macOS version is coming and should be ready to launch in the following days.
Please read our kickstarter update if you have been involved with it or if you are waiting for your physical copy.
