Every year the ooblugs celebrate Skwitanalia! Each ooblug imagines super hard a single present that they want and it appears in Skwit Skwot, God Emperor's crystal ball. On the longest night of the year, Skwit Skwot flies around on her magical tome, Grimwar, creating and delivering the gifts to all of her subjects.*
But what's this? This year she's flying over Blipston too?

Patch Notes Version 1.03
Hello everyone! New changes are flowing through the world of Squishu and we're here to let you know what they mean for the average squidlit! Live from the Printed Raisin headquarters, Nosey squidlit is here for you!
-It seems like some squidlits were caught defying the laws of physics lately by floating just above the ground! They were told that's kind of rude, so they apologized and should stop now.
-Some squidlits have apparently had trouble figuring out how to talk to others! The Village Squizard, Thalmage, will now remind those he sees how it's done.
-Looks like Skwit Skwot has taken to labeling things in her castle! There's a new sign over her catapult labeling it's use.
-There were instances where squidlits were blacking out before they finished dealing with Skwit Skwot's plan! Inking in that cauldron must have dehydrated them. We now ensure that squidlits are properly hydrated before undertaking their quest!
-Citizens of Blipston and Castletown have complained that the Imperially sanctioned ambiance music is still too loud, so Skwit Skwot has decreed it quieted down even more.
-The Sharkerfly, having been beaten quite a few times now, is no longer as hard-core as it once was. It now winces when inked upon!
-It seems like the dark rain of ink caused by squidlits now properly fades like a real storm, instead of popping out of existence!
That's all for this round of changes to Squishu! Join us next time, at the Printed Raisin, for your latest Squishu news!
Squidlit is now on Itch.io!
We have finally expanded onto itch.io! Soon we will also expand Squidlit upon Good Old Games as well, with both areas open for purchase available upon Friday, the 17th of August.

Interview with IndieGames.com!
Hey all!
We have had an interview with IndieGames.com about Squidlit and our plans for the future. If you're interested in learning more about us and the story behind Squidlit's creation, you can check it out here:
- Fun fact, did you know that octopuses are deaf by human standards? Now we know why! The band will no longer compete for loudest Squidlit.
- Pressing F, like always, changes to windowed mode. Now, though, you can resize the super tiny screen into whatever size you want. Huzzah!
- We sent Ushanka (the squidlit who lives in a hole) and the Muffin Thief back to Squidlit School. They now understand proper wiggling etiquette.
- Pyrethrin is now the proud owner of a new Squidlit Repellent Canister, which is more visible against the background.
- The farmer somehow understood the nuances of teleportation magic. We managed to convince him it's rude, and now he walks like a normal Ooblug after you talk to him.
Stay Squishy!

We've been interviewed by GameSpark!
We have been interviewed recently by the Japanese game news website, GameSpark! It's so exciting to have up and going! If you can read Japanese, or have a translation software you like, the interview is here:
There is an update planned for Squidlit, by the way, we are just waiting for it to be a bit more heafty before we release it.
Stay squishy! C:3

Patch Version 1.01
Our first patch! We fixed a few things.
-Fixed the Ooblug farmer! He was counting some Untzsnails twice, which caused him to freeze the game in confusion when you talk to him about the hovercraft. We taught him how to count better.
-We fixed the complaint about our letter "u" in the game's text. It should no longer look like it has a period next to it.
Thanks for enjoying Squidlit!
Squishy regards,
~Alex and Samantha
