A long overdue update
It's been a long time since we've posted here but today we're back with good news. In the past year we've been working hard on improving Kaze and the Wild Masks and I'm very happy to announce to you that we've partnered up with a publisher. Now I can't tell you who they are just yet, but I can assure you that with their help, we'll be able to focus on the actual development of the game while they take the rest out of our hands. This means you can expect regular updates from their side soon.
We apologize for being so quiet over the past year, but next week we can announce more about this, so we'll talk to you then!
Until next time!
