Bloodworks is out!
Bloodworks is an indie title I was working as a hobby project for a while and finally I was able to make it public to everyone! Please give it a try and report any problems you can find. It is a one-person project, so there are probably still some bugs I couldn't find myself. There are a few reviews that reports performance spikes for ultimates and I tried to improve things a little I hope it is a little better now.Read full article on Community Announcements (taytay)
