Hello, everyone.

Gerald here, your friendly neighborhood in-house reporter with the latest from Frost Giant Studios HQ. Our priorities have changed significantly since our Early Access release, as we’re determined to listen to player feedback and to move the game towards our ultimate goals with the community’s input serving as our guiding light. I’m here to share an update on what the team has been working on and what they’re planning for the months ahead. Buckle up, because we have some pretty big news to share.

First off, some exciting news for those of you who’ve been competing on the leaderboard. We’ll be releasing a balance patch later today.
