Top Gnome is fully Released!
After what was probably way too long, Top Gnome is finally ready to come out of Early Access! Bert is just as relieved as we are that this project is finally wrapping up, at least for the time being. As a team, we've learned a ton working on Top Gnome and we hope to transfer the skills and knowledge we've gained into our future projects. Top Gnome is just the beginning of what we want to do, and we look forward to showing you our new projects in the future! We want to thank everyone who supported us throughout Top Gnome's development, it would have been much harder without you! Bert also gives his thanks! Since we will be shifting our focus to our next game, we will be leaving Top Gnome in its fully released state for the foreseeable future outside of bug fixes/small patches. This isn't to say we won't revisit Top Gnome in the future, it just isn't the focus now.
