Brutal Orchestra 1.01 "Walk and Talk."

Merry Christmas Eve!



We have been hard at work over the past week fixing lots of issues that cropped up after launch. We were not able to get to every issue that we are aware of as the holidays are a hard time to work and we want to make sure we are spending time with our families especially after how crazy launch was.

Keep an eye out for future updates!
