About the release date, the initial plan was to have the game leave Early Access as soon as it's content complete and if all goes well it should be done in about a month.
However I'm now considering keeping it on Early Access for a little bit longer. This is so I can further polish the game, add variations to the enemiy AI and make sure that the game is bug free.
Thank you!
