About 『GIGA WRECKER』
『GIGA WRECKER』, which from August 2016 was repeatedly fine tuned with feedback from users through Steam Early Access, is a 2D action game in which Reika, a girl who has the ability to manipulate rubble, explores a world dominated by legions of fiendish robots.
Game Freak, the company behind the "Pokémon" series, did the development, and welcomed Asagiri as the graphic concept designer and Shinji Hosoe of SuperSweep co.,ltd. as the sound producer.

Director's comment
The game's development is almost complete!
We are now working on debug and reflecting requests and reports
which we have received from players into the game.
Now achievements are set, so the game should look more like a complete title!
Now we have prospect on the release of the full version, so we should start opening information.
We are planning to release the full version around the beginning of February 2017,
so please wait a little more, and thank you for your continuous support on Early Access!
Testing Achievements!
Currently the development team is testing achievement applications.
This may look like players can now unlock achievements in GIGA WRECKER,
but until testing is complete and an update patch is applied
players cannot actually unlock these achievements yet.
Thank you for your understanding.

■DIRECTOR’S COMMENT
Thanks to everyone who has supported us from Early Access, now the whole story is playable in the game! First time when I reached the ending, it sure was a deeply emotional experience.
But there are still things to be done!
In the next update the game will become the final release version.
Other than game brush-ups, we are planning to localize the game for many languages.
We are continuing development, so we can reflect opinions and requests provided from players and improve the game’s quality until the final release, so we hope everyone will be looking forward and enjoy “GIGA WRECKER”!
