It's surreal that Refunct is now available on newer versions of consoles that I originally grew up with. Thanks for the huge support of each and everyone of you!
Also if you enjoyed Refunct please leave a brief Steam review for it if you can, as I believe it to be the most effective way for others to notice my games.
Thank you a lot for all your support over the years!
