Game: Roguebreaker
Hey!
It's been a blast working on the game through the last week, I'm glad people are enjoying the game. Reading the reviews is always fun, thanks for writing them!
This week a lot of work was done on polishing the SFX and some more quality of life changes to make the game that much more juicy to play, including better ball control.
If you like the game and haven't written a review yet, please do! I've seen a few videos of Roguebreaker out there but I'd love to watch you play the game, so if you've uploaded some gameplay, let me know here or on Twitter @TankorSmash!
Looking forward to hearing what you think of the update!
