Dev-Blog #12 - Early Access, Final Logo, first unlockable character, first unlockable achievements, two new charactersEarly Access launched! The game is still very far from being done, actually there is no real gameplay right now. Please only get this game if you want to actively support the development by funding the game!
The main reason is some people bought the game through the humble widget and were unable to download it because i added early access instead of beta keys to the humble widget. Sorry guys, you now can enjoy the typing adventure! :)
There soon will be a demo so you can try out the game before purchasing it. Please also read the early access box before considering purchasing this as there is almost nothing to do as of right now!
But i already became alot of great feedback and maybe that way more people can get into touch with the game.
The game just became its fourth logo! The first one was fine but i had to change the game's name because of legal reasons (see Dev-Blog #2)
I'm happy to show you the games final logo! Along with the new logo some steam images were replaced now also showing the new logo.

You are now able to unlock characters for endless mode, but in the current version you are only able to unlock a single one because you can't fulfill other characters requirements.
Also i activated achievement unlocking, right now you can achieve 2/23 achievements, more will unlock once the game development progresses.
I will mention if more achievements will be obtainable, but since there are hidden achievements i won't say how to unlock them.
As usual there were bugfixes and sadly i had to revert to GameMaker 1.X because of frame drops on the newest engine. Even though i was able to fix the shader problem i couldn't overcome the frame drops.
But during writing this Dev-Blog i tried it out once more and on the most recent runtime i didnt have those framedrops, which means i will give it another try in the near future, i still believe in the engine upgrade!
I added two more clowns to the game, only thre more to go until all playable characters are inside the game. Since they arent unlockable yet i will further introduce them with the final five Trading Cards.
Feel free to follow the official group or the official twitter to stay up to date about the game's development.
Also vote on the roadmap for future patch contents!
The current version is 0.1.41
