Price will go up get it while it's low - Major update incoming
A lot of implementation coming in, the steam version will have everything without add-ons while the mobile version will be free but limited unless in-game purchase are made. Easier gameplay ; - walls are much more apparent - ennemies are shown when shooting - UI has been modified and is no longer distracting Menu is a lot better to travel through Implementation of skins unlocked based on achievements on steam and in-game purchase on mobile (free version) The game will go up in price and will be under 10.00$ USD. The amount isn't determined yet. I'm very excited to implement all of this and working hard to make it possible before the end of the year while working a full time job.
