Zeno Clash to be released early next year

We'd like to communicate to the gaming community that we have decided to push the release date of Zeno Clash to early next year. The studio will be aiming for a February release. We apologize to all the people who were expecting the game to be released this year, but the bright side of the delay is that the additional time we'll spend on the game will ensure that we deliver a quality experience, true to the expectations of our fans. Being an independant studio has allowed us to develop this game without external pressures, so we chose not compromise the game's quality by releasing this year.

We'd also like to announce another piece of interesting news: We're submitting Zeno Clash for next year's Independent Games Festival. We'll be eagerly awaiting for the finalists list that will come out in December.
